  1. Edouard was at the very beginning of September, 1996.
  2. Just installed the bedroom AC on Saturday. Tried to hold off until June 1, but the house just holds onto the warmth so it's tough to get indoor temps to drop much at night, even when temps are in the 40s for lows.
  3. When hasn't JB put the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast in an above average threat area?? Of course, a broken clock is right twice a day.
  4. It makes the snow map I created look like something else for sure. Went with 10-15” south of ORH and 15-20” ORH to Route 2 . CT River Valley may get shadowed and see 5-10”.
  5. Not sure why he moved back to Boston after being in Atlanta, if he hates winter so much. Sigh.
  6. CIPS analog hints at an "Ice, Ice Baby" scenario with the storm New Year's weekend. Anyone know how significant the freezing rain event was for around December 17-18 or so of 2008 - which would have been a week after the very significant ice storm on December 11, 2008.
  7. Yep. For sure. Granted the records are from Worcester but the 1940s were definitely a mixed bag of winters - some really horrible like 1941-42, 1943-44 & 1946-47, but others did really well (looking at you 1947-48).
  8. I wish I could thank this post many times over. What a great post and it's all true!! Sadly, weather posts on Twitter and Facebook are such that, as you said, there's only a model map with no context. That gets shared a shit ton of times and thus it becomes a "forecast" that in all likelihood never verifies. What happens in the end is that the "public" ends up coming away thinking that it's another bust of a forecast and the meteorologist is wrong again - even though you and I and many others NEVER forecasted that to happen. Sometimes, I feel like the grumpy old man when I say to myself, It was better when all we had were difax printouts once or twice a day. You actually had to forecast the weather and not just regurgitate a really pretty model map. Again, great post!!
  9. 1900 was actually a VERY quiet hurricane season in terms of numbers (7 storms, 3 hurricanes, 1 major). In fact, the Galveston Hurricane was the 1st storm of the season!
  10. But now we're going to have others trying to intercept on foot. The reason will be, "If Reed did it, I can too." sigh.
  11. Give him props for what?? Being an idiot? Sure, I'll give him props for that. This is why storm chasing has such a stigma attached to it. You can storm chase without being an idiot or being a hazard to yourself and others.
