  1. Thanks for sharing, I’m sure broadway at the beach would look beautiful blanketed in snow
  2. If it 48 hours out and an El Niño year I could believe it, but given the La Niña I don’t see this verifying, believe me I hope I’m wrong. At least it gives us something to look at this week
  3. Snowing all the way down to South Carolina, color me skeptical
  4. If you leave them down and they freeze to the windshield, if you try to use them, the rubber rips off and sticks to your windshield. Also makes it easier to scrape if they are lifted up
  5. It’s like you’ve done this a couple times before
  6. That area is in big trouble, could be devastating
  7. At least the closer to game time you get, the smaller the jumps will be. 36 hours out the you’re usually locked in on a likely solution give or take
  8. Two different maps, one through 7pm Sunday and one through 7am Monday
  9. It’s been a long week, I don’t blame you at all, most annoying to me is the banter in the non-banter thread and the competing pbp. That never used to be an issue
  10. You’re not new here, this is the way things are handle by a lot of posters, especially the insomniac overnight crew
  11. Illegal to dump directly into a river, during large historic snowfalls, staging areas are set up for snow stock piling and then generally a snow melter is brought in if they run out of room. Lot 7 at RFK stadium was the dump site in 2016 I believe
  12. In the DMV area, public works trucks probably salt on average 15 to 20 times a year, while plowing only a handful, so in order to keep roads passable and reduce risk of collisions, salt/brine is a necessary evil. NYC salts as well, probably more than the DMV. They also rely heavily on pre treatment with brine to reduce adhesion of ice
  13. because most trash trucks, especially more modern ones aren’t designed for plows. Plus the lack of ability to carry salt is a major downside
  14. It’s the fact that no one is ever satisfied when the models show a massive snow storm 5 days out and then they end up with the most respectable storm in 8-10 years. People should learn that models wavier and enjoy the ride, life’s too short to cry over 4 inches of snow
  15. Been around long enough to know the drill, still pretty tiring.
  16. The reactive emotional roller coaster some weenies ride is completely nauseating
  17. Does the significant ice make in the the low country? Looks like some cold rain mixed with some brief freezing rain in Charleston/MB
  18. Man, watching from the sidelines in Charleston is making me want to load up the truck and do some chasing. Feel so close but know that we are out of the game down here on the coast
  19. People waiting patiently for the jog back west in the late night model runs.
  20. I have lost a job for no reason before. I think a lot of people have. It’s why I decided to become self employed and not be reliant on someone else. I have a lot of sympathy for those who lost their jobs. I’m not on board with it or in favor of it, but I don’t consider it a crippling blow to the organization. I will say, there are a ton of government employees that have worked and abused the system, I’m related to them, I’ve witnessed it. Some of these repercussions in other organizations is due to rampant abuse. Not saying that’s the case with NOAA or NWS, but it’s the case with other organizations.
