packbacker Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 If the GFS verifies, Boston is over. It would be a disaster, two historic/epic storms exactly a month a part, unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beanskip Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 The thing so annoying about DT is that he wastes some excellent forecasting skills by becoming the global apologist for the European model and the designated attack dog for the GFS. He ends up spinning every model run as a supporter of the Euro or denegrator of the GFS. I don't get why that becomes so important to him. If the GFS verifies, DT's days as a forecaster are over.

I have mentioned several times this winter the GFS has verified much better over the Euro and people get all bent out of shape on our SE forum. The GFS was SE of every model for Sandy, but it wasn't 300 miles SE it was 50-100 miles and the NE crew just crucified it, they started a thread on WTF was wrong with GFS. Now they are model hugging the GFS like it's there last meal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disc Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 If the GFS is right, NE can have that 2 feet of heavy wet snow. I enjoy having power and a roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdRainsStr8cashhomey Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 It's not coming south, it's all rain in Richmond, solidly all rain. It's not even about south anymore, several things would have to change. It's going to be amazing watching the other models fall inline, I actually feel terrible for the Richmond folks, 24 hours ago this was a record winter storm now it's all rain. YES! Delta & I are pulling for sideways rain in Richmond for ole DT this is the only reason I'm still paying attention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msuwx Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 The GFS has been pretty strong in this area this Winter. In fact, it's led the way with some systems. I would still give the overall edge to the Euro, but the GFS isn't the complete whipping boy it used to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beanskip Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Yeah, I must admit, even though I'm done, I've never been most interseted (albeit morbidly) in what happens up there -- if he busts badly, it will be an epic meltdown.

Cold Rain Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 GFS better with fast Pac flow? I dunno. Ukie/Gem out yet, or do they just suck so bad that nobody is mentioning them? I hope DT gets a shower then dryslotted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet Stream Rider Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 wv loop and current mesoscale analysis shows this sytem somewhere near the North Dakota/South Dakota boarder. It seems to be moving slow and is way north. Further, upper air flow looks to be becoming more zonal. Any chance this thing does not move nearly as far south as previously thought? That would put nearly all the mid Atlantic out of the game. http://weather.rap.ucar.edu/satellite/displaySat.php?region=LIT&itype=wv&size=large&endDate=20130303&endTime=-1&duration=12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Track Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I ventured on to DT's Facebook page the other day, and was amazed how he talked to people on there. He's telling people to Eff off and using every four letter word he can. I hope his forecast does blow up in his face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packfan98 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 If I'm remembering correctly, wasn't the GFS the model that first picked up on those Lee Side Trough enhancement this winter? If so, that's pretty impressive for a lower resolution model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think it's going to totally miss the MA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope DT gets a shower then dryslotted. I've thought so for a while now. In a split flow however, I might be inclined to give the Euro a nod first.

But geeeze, to think we need it south of Oklahoma, not skirting the Great Lakes lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calculus1 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Whatever does happen, it is a unique system of interactions. The continental low is being affected by the Pacific offshore lows (one is not included in the image, off to the west) and Atlantic offshore low/block structure. There is a lot of interference all at once. Slight changes in each of these systems each day may affect eachother. The Pacific onshore flow that is underneath the continental low is being pulled into the Atlantic offshore system. goes_overview_040313_01.png Calm_days, you consistently post these images, and I can't figure them out at all. I can't even see any land under these clouds, so I have no reference points at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GFS had that storm heading way OTS by 100's of miles, while the Euro had a NE landfall for 5 straight days out going into NE. You keep throwing out incorrect information about the GFS being better than the Euro every day. Yes the GFS has improved, yes the GFS scores the coup over the Euro every once in a while. But its still the bridesmaid by a long ways to the euro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have time to argue this or really care, take a look at the thread and you can see for yourself, the GFS was SE, but not "100's of miles" which would imply 300+ miles. For my area the GFS was fairly good for all three events we had, the Euro was not even close on two of them. http://www.americanwx.com/bb/index.php/topic/39285-so-what-the-hell-happened-with-the-gfs/#entry2109353 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poimen Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 Although not likely to be a big deal, the extreme northern Piedmont/coastal plain of NC may still see some snow during the day Wednesday in a deformation band. That feature still cannot be ruled out for the border counties especially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
