  1. I think he's referring to EPAWA. Quite a few of their forecasters are not degreed meteorologists.
  2. Well, where they *thought* they went wrong, anyway... (I didn't read it myself as I avoid them like the plague, but I'm told by other meteorologists who did read it, that the explanation was not really correct... but again, that's heresay)
  3. Technically nothing is out of the realm. That doesn't mean its a good forecast. 18:1 ratios is a total reach. Not getting that.
  4. You must've missed my post about the EC QPF in ABE and RDG... 9" is not supported by the EC.
  5. Granted he just wrote " -1" " on his map, but a cursory examination of his map would suggest that its really "up to 1 inch", and the 1" line is actually over ABE. That said, I still don't see how they get much of anything. Certainly his forecast snow map is NOT supported by the 0Z GFS or NAM or the 12Z Euro.
  6. No, they don't. Its done before the cold air moves in. Gotta look at soundings and not just the 850 temps. Low levels stay warm til its all done.
  7. That seemed to be a better surge of cold advection than this one. This system is stronger and holds it up. NW of I-95 it will probably make it... along I-95 itself...
  8. The old thread was over 1,000 replies... So... what's JB think for this summer?
  9. I have placed a topic in the general forum regarding the revised NWS snow measurement guide... http://www.americanwx.com/bb/index.php/topic/41853-new-nws-snow-measurement-guide/
  10. We had a SCEP who was hired as an intern here in Elko from 2009-2010. He went on to be a forecaster at HPC very quickly.
  11. Here's a good essay which suggests that the situation in Meteorology is not at all dissimilar to what's going on in most other college majors... http://www.cracked.com/blog/5-ways-we-ruined-occupy-wall-street-generation/ I quoted the 5, 4 and 3 below as they are related to this discussion topic...
  12. I listed it in the June Wx thread, but I believe 95 at EWR and TEB was it.
  13. KNYC Central Park has officially hit 90.
  14. Dude... honor Jack's memory by not posting the EC here! If the EC folks found out, it would be Jack's wife who would get in trouble.

  15. 15.3" in Central Park... yeah I'm really a dummy!

  16. Good call on the 12/05/03 comparison. I'm the dummy!
