You make very good points and I do take back my stance on that. At the end of the day, if I’m overwhelmed by the emotion, I have the option to not partake, or just mute certain accounts. I appreciate the discussion!

What I’m currently having trouble understanding is if you read what I actually said. I said clearly in that reply that there’s absolutely a place for all that and that the current thread should not go away. I just think it would be nice to have a separate thread just with the pros so people can have the option to get less biased analytical breakdowns. I’d never suggest shutting down anyone’s voices in here. Seeing all the weather enthusiasts come together is a great thing. I apologize if my opinion came across like I was wanting to shut certain people up in here. I guess it just gets exhausting coming into the analysis thread to see it be overwhelmed by emotional reactions a lot of the time. I will take your advice and just start muting the accounts that tend to clog it up the most with that stuff.

Came here to say this exact thing. Bias gets involved for most in here, even some of those who really know their stuff. I think it’s fine to have a thread like this where people can give their analysis but also express emotional reactions. It would just be really nice to have one thread that’s JUST analysis without all the added noise.

I think until we get a decent snow event that comes to fruition there will be cliff jumpers any time there’s even the most slight projected warmup

I don’t know how you all feel about Webb. In my time following him, it seems like he’s been about as informed and accurate as anyone I’ve come across. So him saying this does feel like a massive sucker punch.

I usually ignore the nonsense hype machine that is Tony Pann, but his latest post has me intrigued about the AI GFS and Euro. What were they showing?

Yeah I’m just a tad to the northeast of you. Unless things drastically pick up in the next few hours, I won’t get more than an inch or two on cold surfaces. Pavement caved 2 and a half hours ago and still just has a light coating. It’s been snowing consistently but it’s been light and it’s seemingly just not really adding up much at all.

Snow started accumulating on pavement around 12:45 in Parkville. Just got back from a walk. Everything coated now. Not sure how much punch is left in this thing, but it was a nice scene out there.

Light coating on all cold surfaces now in Parkville. About to go walk

Trying to time when I should go out for my 1/2 hour walk in Parkville(just a hair north of Baltimore City). I want to try to time it with the heaviest bands.

It’s been all snow in Parkville for a good 20 minutes or so. Still 35 degrees so not really accumulating yet

I would happily accept all the warmth and rain events possible from the 17th to the 24th if it is followed by a wintry stretch from Christmas to New Years.

It would be pretty amusing if we come out of the cold period that was hyped up quite a bit with very little snow and then find a way to squeeze a legit snowstorm into this upcoming pattern

I don’t like Harbaugh. Lamar is having a rough season. Monken hasn’t inspired any confidence. But if we’re going to talk about the Ravens biggest problems, it starts and ends in the trenches. They have no pass rush(and they haven’t for YEARS, aside from the one year Mike Macdonald worked magic) and the offensive line is awful.

Tonight’s Euro is probably the worst case scenario in terms of cashing in on our December cold. There’s the mid-week clipper well to the north and then just a whole lot of nothing before a warm up leading into Christmas.

Euro has quite the rollercoaster on Thursday the 18th. Waking up to temperatures in the 50s with showers/thunderstorms. Dropping to freezing by the evening, ending with a burst of snow/ice, then dipping down into the teens by Friday morning.

Not a single post about ANY of the 00z runs of the models tonight. Just a massive snorefest.

It is pretty wild how big the city impact is on temps. I live 9 miles south of my parents, but I’m in Baltimore City and they’re just over the County line. It’s 37 degrees here and 31 degrees there.

90-100%. EPS smoking that good stuff today

I don’t hate this. Not as cold as some are advertising out there, but seems to like an active storm track

Someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but the end of December 2017 into January 2018 was one of the coldest stretches I can remember in recent history. I recall there was like a 10 day stretch where it didn’t get above freezing in Baltimore. Many nights in the single digits, many days that struggled to get out of the low 20s.

I was just going back and looking through the snow totals by month and year for BWI, and I notice that the official records show a trace of snow in August of 2015 and June of 2016. Does anyone remember these? Seems like it has to be a mistake.
