    Okay, I understand Moderators general hands off.  Thank you all for your strong support.

    I have a couple of goals in mind when threads are started. To ensure an impact storm occurs or is real close (ACY 10" 1/3 but bust up here),  and to highlight the accuracy (or inaccuracy) of the many different models physics up to 7 days in advance. Finally, that the impact will include NYC where snow and ice in winter is at a premium. If it's I84 only, I lay off.

    Believe me: It takes plenty of time to figure things out and my time is also precious and so I definitely  do not want the membership to be torn away from family for just some weather, especially since so much can go wrong more than 60 hours in advance.

    I am confident that the 1 day forecast accuracy when I was growing up in nw NJ in 1960 is now valid as accurate to 5 days in 2022.  To me, this is dedication of researchers and the financial support of platforms-computer power.  Like it or not, there is valuable information well in advance that can prepare the interested consumer to mitigate adverse impact be it winter storms, firestorms, hurricanes, 10+" rains.  Some of our posters are able to mine the gold and share some pretty cool stuff- we're fortunate to share these advance notice posts.

    Will post Jan 21-23 open ended east coast storm thread-threat to likely (not categorically) followed by  coldest weather of the season around the 24th.  I think we're noticing each cold surge getting a little colder here in the northeast as the month proceeds. I see two more potentially big shots of cold air around here (24th), 27th)... dates fluid.  921A/16

    The moderators should collaborate and let me know if they want me to change the thread strategy. If they feel this is not of detrimental value, then they will let me know. Moderators: all yours. 

    It's a ridiculous opinion that we should not have discussion threads on this or any forum.  It's why we are here!  Your threads in particular are why I came back to this forum...keep up the great work.

    I'm not convinced the heaviest totals will be north & west of NYC.

    Very cold/dry over there and temps have been very cold down to C/NJ. Euro/GFS are further south with jackpot zone.

    So I have an inkling jackpot will be near or just south of I-78

    How about at the intersection of I-78 and I-287?  That works for me...:whistle:

    So, the ICON is not really to be taken seriously around here I assume?  Does it exist because it is fairly good at predicting weather in say Europe and not so much in North America?  If so, what specifically does it fail to pick up on within our region?  I suppose there is a better forum for these questions, but I'm just thinking out loud here (and drinking!).
