Back in the day we all got along under one subforum.....

These past few years being separated(NYC & Philly on its own) it has really put a strain on this site as a whole.

The strain is from rjay not having enough fiber in his diet

you should definitely keep posting snow obs over in the midatlantic forum, though...they really like that

Definitely.

I cant believe you guys dont wanna merge with us and get this hard hitting analysis:

He has every right to whine.

The pro-snow/cold folks in this board have been atrocious with their predictions so far this season.

It is downright deplorable and deceptive of them to state that NYC will experience a below-normal period this week. That is pure fabrication; just two days of below-average temps followed by insane warmth for the rest of December does not even closely resemble a cold pattern. I'm sure the general public will view this December as mild at the end.

In fact, no one on here should dare to deem an air mass to be cold unless it is almost certain that our temps will not rise above the 30s for at least 7 consecutive days.

Also, they should not even post any analysis until there is widespread model agreement that a truly cold pattern will take hold five days out.

Instead, everyone should just call it a day and follow Isotherm's prediction of an all-out torch winter. Let it play out. He has correctly nailed the past few winters with solid reasoning.

how about one subforum where it's just metsfan, Damage in Tolland and forky and it's the only subforum they're allowed to post in

This i can get on board with

Personally I'd like to merge with the Caribbean Subforum.

Mods arent allowed to not like snow. For shame!

You could actually respond to a valid point with a reasoned thought, but your pea-brain is only capable of memes.

Seems like a stretch. Does geographic continuity play no role in this? It seems more like a convenient fix to combine the two smallest subforums into one. What's wrong with merging us with upstate NY/PA that seems to make the most sense in my book?  

It snows in upstate ny. 

Ill allow it if we get mac and a draft pick.

@Rjay Since Pennsylvania is part of the mid-atlantic wouldn't it make more sense to merge Philly with mid-atlantic subform and not NYC.

Will you change the wording of the NYC subform. So instead of just saying NYC Metro it would say NYC/Philly Metro. @Rjay

Itll say NYC/PhillyPeopleWhoDidntReadTheThreadAndAreTerribleSportsFansWhoBooedSanta

I have been lurking here for over a year. Can be intimidating as a newbie...surrounded by people who know so much. This post made me finally join. I suppose I can at least share my observations and excitement for storms!!

 

Just ignore rjay and everything will be fine. Maybe even send him a gfy PM once a month, itll help break the ice.

That's not entirely true.   Even without the pics I won't follow through.

Worst tinder line ever

seriously?

Rjay is drunk and bored. Send him pics of you in your charger and he wont follow through with the merge.

thanks bx...wouldn't want to get neff'ed

Fwiw....and im trying to word this carefully...if any of you need to pop into the nyc forum to discuss the storm, ask questions, etc...ill make sure you guys dont get the treatment you might receive in other places.

Tropicaltidbits and instantweathermaps are both pretty good.

For the love of all that is holy

Well I thought about it some more and realized just how to truly dead this subform is. So I am changing my vote... let's merge with the MA or NYC either one

Wouldn't it just be beautiful if this gets suppressed enough so DC-BAL-PHL get destroyed and NYC gets fringed? I think there is a very real chance of that happening by the way. EURO, Ukie, and GEFS definitely with a SE trend tonight

No thanks.

how'd the prime rib turn out?

Awesome, but i had to cut the damn thing in half first, wouldnt fit in my biggest pan. Nailed the temp perfectly.

i get it now...just read the ny version of this thread...mods are pissed at the quality of the ny forum and are hoping that adding us reasonable philly folk will improve things...in other words, it has nothing to do with improving the Philly forum, and everything to do with trying to drown out the yanksfans of the world...that tells me everything I need to know...I hope people vote, or change their votes, accordingly...

Im against the merge, meanie.

Understood and thank you. The rift between certain people on this site and the other one is unreal in my opinion.

To be perfectly honest, i didnt think there was a rift. That board is well run with incredible posters, and it serves its purpose. And its beginnings were probably necessary considering the history of the philly and nyc subforum, especially before the split. I consider some of those guys my favorite "internet" friends and have no issues with the boards coexisting. There are other "spin-off" boards with a more contentious relationship with amwx and many of those members still manage to post peacefully here too.

I dont want to go too much more into it, but reading posts from respected members essentially saying "this place sucks, heres where i post now" is a little more than just sharing another board for people to post at.
