  1. This doesn't really mean anything, but back in the winter of 92-93, we were basically shutout from mid December to mid February. Then for one month we made up for lost time. Now alot of that snow was from one storm, but still very active nonetheless. So at least we have a little something to hope for.
  2. There's snow chances here and there, but I can't really get too excited until a closed h5 low shows up on the models.
  3. STJ STJ !!! Despite it's best efforts, this winter just hasn't been able to muster much offense on it's own. As we saw on Sunday night into Monday, the cold air alone isn't doing the job. We need to trade for a "hired gun", and that playmaker would be a strong STJ. Like any trade you gotta give something to get something. These dry arctic airmasses are overkill, a strong polar intrusion should be enough. Coupled with the energy and lift from the STJ, these storms will be more dynamic, resulting in better significant snow chances.
  4. Would've been nice to get the dryslot at kickoff, but hopefully the worst holds off until after the game. The worse the conditions, the more it favors the Ravens IMO.
  5. It would be nice just one time to have a storm east of the apps, without having to be offshore. It's been awhile.
  6. I'm starting to think about Flagstaff AZ as a place to move to. Pretty nice weather year round, yet they still average 100" of snow per year.
  7. I'm probably in the minority here, but I don't mind this pattern that much. The second half of last winter was cold and suppressed, at least we got a more active pattern now, even though the snow amounts have been lean. Steelers : No turnovers and no stupid penalties. They should do ok.
  8. Okay friends, I have a hypothetical scenerio for you to decide on. You're offered an iron clad contract stating, that the Pittsburgh metro area would receive one major snowstorm ( 12-24" ) per month, each of the next four months, Dec-Mar. However, outside of those four storms, hardly any snow would fall. Do you sign ? Yes or No.
  9. Hey, mabey we can get a low to stall out over D.C. next time. Yeah right. Lol
  10. Speaking of long duration storms, 22 years ago tomorrow was the best snowstorm I had seen up to that point. Having an early dismissal before lunch was always a bonus. Plus being a walker, we were allowed to leave right away, while the the kids who rode the bus had to wait.
  11. Keep the moisture train going. Hopefully we can maintain a pattern of gulf moisture all winter. Even if we have to ride the rain/snow line at times, with enough opportunities we'll cash in on a few.
  12. I know l know, but this cold air is a waste, without moisture. All it's doing is costing me money. Lol Might as well just be in the 50's. Rant over.
  13. Unfortanatly we've picked up where last winter left off. Cold and dry, and just warm enough for rain. Hopefully the STJ will be more active this winter, giving us a chance to cash in once or twice.
  14. Wow, sorry to hear that.Unfortunatly, the way my sick mind is wired, I would be at a family members funeral checking the latest GFS run for an approaching storm.
  15. Are you still down in Emsworth ? I remember living in Coraopolis, the low elevation killed these early season, marginal temp storms. Even 2/5/10, it had begun to rain around 5 pm, before quickly changing over to snow. For about an hour though, I was mentally distraught. Lol Yeah, living down by the ohio river, you were either fighting climo or elevation.
  16. Just a reminder for everyone to use this thread for any issues with each other, as opposed to the main thread. I know it's tough sometimes, but it helps to keep everything on point, when a storm is approaching. Also, for anyone outside our region that feels the need to meddle in the buisness of this thread... don't. Everyone is welcome to join in any discussions. The self righteous, D-bag, example making policing isn't welcome.
  17. Mabey it wouldn't have made the most "buisness" sense, but signing morneau, bryd, and burnett in the off season could have made the bucs a real pennant contender in a weak N.L. Polanco still would have been called up. But instead of depending on him to save the season, he could have been used to give the the starters a few more days off.
  18. Oh ok.I never heard of radarscope before today. I saw it avaialble on the google play store. It looks like a good app. Is it worth the money in your opinion ?
  19. Thats sucks.Most of the time I use the wunderground app radar, it's pretty good.
  20. In other news, the bucs did nothing to help out a tiring bullpen. A decent reliever or two, would have been nice.
  21. I know my post last night was a bit oversimplified.lol Of couse getting a good storm is not that easy(see March 2014). But last Nov. and Dec., we had some nice opportunities. And with a similar active pattern, especially in Jan. and Feb., we could do well storm wise.
