Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 I really don't like the RUC but it's not usually all that useful in these situations. What I like even less is that it's barely a hit as it is now and quite often it's over exhuberant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Temp slowly dropping here, looks like a mix of a few rain drops and snowflakes. RUC I think continues to head a bad way, would like to see that stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorEastermass128 Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 I hope the Cape gets a nice surprise and winds up with close to a half foot by Wednesday after all this nonsense.

Logan11 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 I work on my own ...mainly for attorneys on estate cases...doing the genealogy locating the heirs etc. Sometimes I have to testify, etc., but anyway it takes me to court houses all over NY and w. NE so I get to see whats going on with the wx. It's doing "ok." ....people keep dying so it's recession proof... What are you doing now for work, Rick? Are things going well?

Logan11 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 It's not bad ...I really don't like appearing in court and sitting there with four attorneys grilling me, but its mainly NYC that forces the genealogist to do that. Dunno if I'd want to be the attorney and always have to do the court thing. No doubt its more lucrative though. which is exactly why most of what I do is estate planning/administration I'm witcha' on dat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan11 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 NY goes to the absolute extreme re: missing distributees as we say - even if they aren't getting a thing in the will. Good law for the legal industry I'd say. LOL 80% of my work are probate cases where they just make us turn over all sorts of stones to find the relatives and serve them. I only have to testify in intestate things usually. never had to do it in 27 years MD laws are diff than up there if PR doesn't know the address of interested person, notice in paper suffices for due process I never did get off on the court thing a lot of people who got beat up as obnoxious children become lawyers and get their kicks by grilling people which I've always found pretty pathetic I guess getting beat up as a child never had much of a permanent effect on me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logan11 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 I guess you have to have some real arctic air place before a snowstorm in ACK in order to achieve a good snow event...and overcome that marine layer.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 It's interesting that the line I threw out there of Marshfield to New Bedford is about where this is setting up. The radar looks good, but ground truth - it's just a light rain/snow mix here with temps to 35 and dropping. The RUC waivers but does seem to think it will hit pretty hard late tonight. We shall see how this plays out in the next few hours as I suspect as we see the real banding setup it will be a sharp edge. Look south of MVY now, that one heavy band is starting to shoot NNE and looks like it will pass just east of the canal. The NAM totals may be pretty good but they may be too far west, we shall see. Going to be a super tight gradient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
