Kitzbuhel Craver

GFS op under CT and to the elbow…

Just now, CoastalWx said:

The gfs op had had short term busts too. Whatever models show the most snow, weenie will hump.

Well yeah…. Duh

I'd rather it cut to chicago than have to read Tip's 10 paragraph gloat

Every tick East, I read another paragraph 

He’s gonna squash the Weenies in 3….2….1..

…And that 6z GEFS

The EPS has failed us before, unlikely but it definitely has in the past.

You look at H5 at hour 84, and I would say you are high if you expected something near NYC. Not sure I’ve ever seen that. That’s such an abrupt turn north. 

Right, it’s bizarre… it’s doing these hopscotch jumps to the north, west, north, west with each frame

Right, which is why I said that we need to see an abrupt reversal today...not a 20 miles tick east by 3 EPS members...a jarring reversal.

Do we though? Some messenger shuffle from now until go-time could get it done. 

Jesus, it’s a war zone in here…

Eh...I'd still take an expected foot over a surprise inch, but that's just me.

There is a joke somewhere in this wording, just can’t figure it out. Hmmmm…. 

Pack got pretty beat up today… Was throwing “snowballs” for the doggie and they were more like slush balls.

It kind of flew under the radar, but mass dot was advertising on all electric billboard on the state, a need for plow drivers over certain weight, for months and months this fall. 

I'm going to talk about salt, shortages, plows, all I want. Directly related to weather and impacts. Needs to be stressed. Cannot rely on roads to be ready for you this winter. Safety first. 

If you make it political, not my problem. It's just a current event. 

Whoa, chill… I was simply referring to the prior post which specifically sighted Covid as being at least partially if not more so responsible for the shortage of DOT staff in CT.

Omicron shortages. Less plow drivers. Less dpw. Less everything. I've been hearing this all over. 

Yup. Not sure what thread it was, but someone had commented on how in CT hundreds of DOT workers were out because of quarantine and awaiting negative test results. Rapid Test false positives for the loss.

38 here partly sunny

Yup, dim sun platter here as well…

Euro last night going back to back big dawgs w/ a touch of ensemble support. Goofus going out a bit, showing a parade of coastals. Me thinks we are heading towards something special. Other Mets have eloquently explained this with science and data. I’m like a weenie hype man,  standing behind jay-z(who in this case are Will, Scott, Dendy and many other brilliant folks, too many to list) and I’m just behind them, emphatically belting out every third word, “Uh, yeeeaaaahhh, snow, Uh, storms, yeaahhh, KU’s, whaaaaaT”

It's hour 366, so lock it in.

You should start a thread.

Nor shall the days in which a thread beginnan exceed the length of thy ween. Let it be done.

Arctic sand & needles, lol:

That depicts an absolutely frigid coastal. Been awhile since we had one of those…

Still coming down, albeit lighter and wrapping up soon. As the last echoes begin to slide east, I immediately pop into the January thread to see what’s next. Enter Tip… it’s a sickness…

Bands will make her dance 

 

Lol. My wife and I literally sing this and get hype when we are in the midst of a good snower 

What an absolutely awesome event. I really feel for the have nots, it blows, I get it. For the haves,  what do we owe the over performance to? Last night we discussed; the eastern choke low fizzling/the western low becoming more dominant, the congealing of the two, or an ideal mid level track and closure?

….So I did get 10”?!

Hahahahaha

Final Call

I’m getting 10” IMBY!!!!

Anything that completely covers the grass and provides a wintry landscape that hangs around for more than a couple days is a YUGE victory for this season thus far.
