  1. I think if you're north of 195 it's snizzly for a bit. Non accumulating snow until early afternoon, cranks as it gets dark.
  2. I've been waiting like 5 cycles for that. Still expecting it sadistically
  3. Steve has a gross ego and deserves any criticism he gets. His publicly harassing WFAN because they stated there was a "storm threat" early last week for last weekend was corny and cringe. He got anointed some sortve digital weatherman chair position at the AMS conference and he's been a one man wxtwitter police since.
  4. Perfect. You and I have agreed that Mount Holly has been too aggressive frequently this winter. They're probably nervous to pull the trigger now.
  5. I would never subject my kids to remote "learning." It's a snow day in my household. Sled trajectory and shoveling entrepreneurship are much more valuable than whatever teach has ready on Zoom.
  6. If only there were 12 more weather balloons.
  7. I would still like to see these publications if you have them.
  8. I'm surprised that it's more affordable to fly a hurricane hunter than it is to launch a few dozen balloons.
  9. If there are observed and measurable reductions in model accuracy due to fewer balloon launches, please link me to this info.
  10. At the risk of pointing out the obvious, we have not one but two systems that need to resolve and play out that will have some impact on the upstream flow. There's at least 3 vortmax cluttered across the playing field immediately ahead of the two that would become the big coastal.
  11. Did he delete stuff? I see a respectful back and forth.
  12. I wouldn't weenie this post but I don't find it compelling. Dave is a proud, loud, card carrying Democrat and I feel his weather opinions are biased by his political opinions. If I am reading his graphic correctly there are 18 fewer balloons going up over the USA every day than before the budget cuts, and 5 of them are downstream from us. How many more private balloons are going up today compared to 5 or 10 years ago with data available to the globals? Have sattelite density and observational quality improved at all? Are the number and quality of plane sensors unchanged? What percentage of reduction does this represent when accounting for balloon soundings globally? "Fewer balloons is bad and ruining modeling" is a pretty simple take on the matter. As another poster said we've seen some abysmal model performance over the last five years, particularly the GFS since its latest "upgrade." These failures predate NOAA budget cuts.
  13. We have renamed the UKmet after uncleweathbee
  14. We have heard about your burmuda high pressure theory for days. Please stop posting unscientific drivel.
  15. The self appointed WxTwitter hall monitor does not approve. https://x.com/i/status/2022447652550402496
  16. Noone is afraid to hear it. We're just exhausted by your insufferable, boorish repetitiveness.
  17. Two years ago I had snowdrops blooming 2nd week of February. This year I just have snow. I like this better
  18. Also looks pretty low amplitude and negligible on forcing
  19. I'm hoping for another foot because I like the mayhem
  20. I saw pics of people in Philly parked on sidewalks. Near me in Princeton I couldn't believe how poor the plowing was- shoulders not cleared, corners not cleared enough to see around. I wonder if a bunch of old heads retired and this was the first "big" snow for a lot of people plowing.
