Crankywxguy from Twitter was right again. He really is very good at this stuff.

Edit: He's more into analysis than forecasting; that's why he's so good. He uses the maps to show the evolution of a storm or pattern and just says, "here's what's happening."

Last night, he noted that the hrrr was likely going snowy because the storm was wobbling and the model was misreading it as actual movement; and he noted that the low was forming further north and west while others were insisting it was further east.

Last year, he noted the shift early morning of the January blizzard while others, like DT, were mocking the NWS for the blizzard warning in NYC.

He is , perhaps 5-10 times smarter than DT. Cranky is intelligent, humble and has an excellent way of explaining. In a lot of ways far less ''cranky'' than DT or JB. Best Met teacher I have seen and he is consistent!

If I'm reading you correctly she's there because her look. Funnily enough I look is about as bad as her Meteorological knowledge which is virtually non-existent

Just curious who you think the best is. I think Lee is the top on camera guy in the metro. 

Without question Nick Gregory as a met. Lee is more camera friendly but Nick is my designated hitter

Lee Goldberg was just on ABC, and even though he mentioned the new GFS he said he favors the Euro and mentioned a few reasons why.  Of course he also said "gut." lol

He did say that although he favors an offshore track that the storm could still mix right along the coast.  But he favors historic totals for the city because of the set up and the pattern as well as the more reliable and accurate Euro and its resolution.

He is the 2nd best met in the city so Ill take that but its surprising for him to say historic so early on in the game
