Well, that was sadly a bit underwhelming. Doesn’t look like too much else is going to happen today

Yinzers it's official we have a new record. Didn't think it would be possible but Kpitt has officially given up on winter and it's only December 4. Absolutely incredible. As I type this I can hear the wind howling and the pinging starting so the front has arrived. 

And a record from you, five minutes to be stalking me. 
 

Why don’t you just cool it this winter and put me on ignore, and stop being so obsessed with every post I make. 

I’m ready for spring

Maybe I should ask you. Pat Narduzzi decided to dunk on West Virginia and then his season went directly into the shitter. 

Pay Narduzzi can be a real clown.

The SEC Bias is strong.  You should hear the people down there.  They think Ohio State and PSU students are fat, IT workers. 

I won’t tell you what I think of psu fans….

Not according to the person speaking for the playoff committee.  He was quite clear that any team not playing cannot change their position as to new data points.   The flaw for SMU is if they would not be in without the ACC title.  But for someone like PSU, this would essentially wrap it up for them.  The CFP needs to make some changes.   Not too dissimilar from players about to be drafted deciding to avoid bowl games. 

I think not giving Georgia and Alabama what essentially amounts to a buy into the playoffs would be a start

Appears the good banding will remain north agh county. Gonna be hard to get anything notable. In positive news the long range looks so volatile that we may see winter weather again before the end of December.

I’d bet on severe weather and tornadoes before an advisory level snow 

My point and click keeps getting less and less lol

Flash freezing conditions could be an issue, along with the potential squalls. 

I have to be at work 8 Thursday morning. Bottom line if it’s crap and they don’t tell us to delay coming in I’ll call out. 

Man it got cold fast

This blows. Into November, get one sort of fall like day then back to 80 again. I had to run the AC last night because it was 73 degrees at 11.

freaking awful. I remember years we had accumulating lake effect by this point,  now it’s basically early June or mid September. 

First grauple of the season!

Gusting to hurricane force in Daytona. That’s impressive

May have been Ida. That was really bad rain wise for my area, eastern PA and NJ, and S NJ I remember there being a tornado outbreak south of the track. 

It was. 36 tornadoes in a place that usually doesn’t get them.

And it appears there were multiple EF2 or 3 wedge type tornadoes. Also extremely rare in hurricanes. 

I said it early, and I can’t remember the damn name, it reminded me of the remnants of a storm that dropped a bunch of wedge tornadoes in EasterN PA and NJ a few years back. 
 

was it Irma? 
 

definitely not Irma

If there was land east of Florida this would be the biggest tornado outbreak numbers wise in US history.  The outbreak never stopped it just moved offshore

Yeah, didn’t think of that. It has to be unprecedented that basically an entire swath of a state was under a tornado warning today.

Did any station verify 120mph sustained winds?  No buoys did.

 

Is this a common theme with most storms?

It’s an unbelievably common theme. Landfall winds almost never verify

There's still a huge waterspout outbreak going on off Floridas east coast.

I’d imagine this tornado outbreak is one that will be studied for a long time. Not sure we’ve seen anything like this with a land falling storm 

The modeling of this as ultimately pretty good. Most of them did an amazing job depicting the degradation of the storm that was mainly north with the heavy rain. Pressures at LF were pretty on target too.

The intensity of the northern eyewall has been surprising. I wouldn’t have expected the 100mph gust reaching up to st Pete and near Tampa with a landfall south of Sarasota. I guess that is a function of the eye expanding. The rainfall also for a fast moving storm has been impressive.

This doesn’t even take into account the truly unprecedented tornado outbreak that made south Florida look like Oklahoma.

Really a truly interesting storm to watch unfold.

Those questions are usually answered in the main thread up until it's go time. Once the system is within a couple of days of impact, there are just too many posts at the same time for the knowledgeable people to answer. I wish I had an answer. We used to be able to 5 post people, but haven't had that option in years. 

Damn, that sucks. That’s a pretty good tool to curtail some of the crap we see 

Tampa is getting rocked. Yeah, didn’t get the surge but the combination of huge rainfall rates and hours of hurricane force gusts is pretty impactful

Might be time for a timeout if your banter posts are getting deleted 

The Anderson cooper feed on cnn is impressive

Lol. I meant they should be deleting those posts.

I guess my post was banter? I don’t even think I’d hit submit before it was deleted from the main thread.

Lol. It was. We are barely halfway through the storm and you posted it.
