  1. And all the folks from back in the Eastern days know I really don't get this way often or ever... Some of you are worse than reading a neighborhood Nextdoor page.
  2. Enough is enough. There's a F'ing banter thread for a reason. If these tools have the ability to post, they have the ability to figure out where the banter thread is. Better yet - they should take it to a private message. Really not too much to ask for the non-banter threads to be actual weather discussion.
  3. It really is NOT this hard to stay civil and on-topic on this forum. No offense to the vast majority of you - but I've seen 1st graders stay on topic better than you guys. Yes - it sucks that snow isn't as prolific in this region as others...if it bothers you that much you may want to find a new hobby. I come to the forums to read weather info - not watch a bunch of petulant children fight. Every freaking year it's the same crap. Get over yourselves. Practice your netiquette and if you can't GTFO. If only it were the same way it is during the summer for severe season - lighthearted, great learning opportunities, legit weather discussion.
  4. They shouldn't even run surface panels for the CFS. It's a climate model.
  5. Believe FAA measures at DCA and that discussion is written by NWS WFO LWX employees.
  6. And before you try to say my post was terse or rude - I am one of the people who was not a very good poster when I joined Eastern back in the mid 2000s. I get it - weather excites all of us on here - just look at how I get in the annual severe threads.
  7. A lot of us have been in the same situation as you. Just read the posts of the mets and vet-trackers on here. @psuhoffman is a top tier non-red-tagger. Google is your best friend - there's countless resources out there on how to read an H5 map and such. There used to be some free classes online as well via MetEd by UCAR (not sure if they still exist). Just remember that posting all the time doesn't equate to learning. Sometimes the best approach is absorbing info but stay sidelined. A high post count does not equal a quality poster.
  8. All of the energy on the field at H5 looks more diggy so far out to 108 on the 12z GFS.
  9. I found this depiction of 1770s weather weenies waiting for the 12z GFS to come off the printing press.
  10. True - but keep in mind I believe these obs were taken pretty close-in - like at Mount Vernon perhaps.
  11. I dunno - If I'm remembering correctly he described it as "dreadful" - but again might be remembering wrong. The day @Ji describes a 36" blizzard as "dreadful" we know we are all in trouble.
  12. No "official" records - but Washington, Jefferson and apparently some other people or orgs in the area wrote about it in detail. Have to hope that they weren't slant sticking. I've always thought that storm (if authentic) is probably the theoretical max for a single storm in this area. Based on how Washington wrote about it - it's even possible it was two storms back-to-back (similar to 2010)
  13. Washington/Jefferson Storm Redux. We'll all be partying like it's 1772.
  14. Hanging tough around 36-38 here in Colesville, MD. Temp has been oscillating around those points for a couple hours now.
  15. What if the models beyond 48 hours only showed H5 panels. Would sure cut down on the snow map weenies.
  16. Yeah isn't it the unpertubed (same initial conditions as the OP) but run at the resolution the pertubed ensemble members are run at?
  17. Outage numbers for PEPCO are pretty low so far. Though it could just be a slow refresh of the map.
  18. 30.7 now in Colesville. Appears to be raining lightly out there. Definitely getting slick on surfaces I shoveled earlier.
  19. 29 degrees now. The temp rise has been quite impressive.
  20. Temp is really rising now - up to 26.1 it looks like.
