Jonger Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Weather Channel Sucks now. It went ESPN and MTV on me! The one time I put it on to see live reports from Buffalo and some programming is on about some ghost in Eastern Maine...WTF! I heard the Spice Channel has a better forecast than TWC.

hawkeye_wx Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 The Weather Channel has spent the entire day covering the lake effect snow event. Aside from some of the silly programming they have on at times, I think their weather coverage has improved in recent years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWXwx Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Late Friday night/Saturday morning looks to be a mess around these parts. Maybe some zr or even sl**t, depending on temp profiles. I still have a bad taste in my mouth when sl**t is mentioned. Hopefully the temps will warm before the heavier moisture moves in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago WX Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 LAF went from a foot+ of snow to 55˚ and rain...on pretty much all of the models...like 60 hours or so out from the storm. That one put "NW trend" into every weather weenie's dictionary. I don't really mind a repeat of the storm, at this time of the year...plus it'd get cyclone off the schneid. But I'd rather do without a repeat of the model histrionics. EDIT: I was sorta wrong, it was 12-03-2006 on the list. But same thing basically.

You hope it's just the NAM being the NAM, until... Yeah, I remember the NAM being the first one to blink. Then they all followed suit...and it was curtains for us. Never did see a flake of snow in LAF from that storm. that was a fun winter with lots of dynamic systems, no? ORD had 0.0" of snow from December 2 to January 14 that winter. And it was an absolute torch during that time. Then it got progressively colder and snowier...leading into one of the coldest Febuaries on the books. Feb 6 had a "very cold" clipper that dropped 6.0" here. And then, the Feb 13-14 blizzard was a "one shining moment" for the LAF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inside of 48 hours, if you are under the gun from a southern approaching winter storm, the NAM is the canary in the mineshaft when it comes to last minute nw spoilers.

cyclone77 Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Snowday at college in Peoria with this one. Dragged 2 kegs 4 blocks on a sled as the roads were impassible. lol, nice. Yeah the only meaningful snow in Nov I can remember, other than a few inches here and there was Thanksgiving night back in the early 90s. It was the same Thanksgiving that dumped snow on the Cowboys game. We were supposed to have freezing rain that night, and ended up with several inches of wet snow. Was a nice surprise.

wisconsinwx Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 White stuff (flurries, light snow) has been in the air almost constantly for much of the last week, we have been below freezing all of that time, yet we have almost completely bare ground to show for it. It's tough to see so many places get blitzed with snow when we get flakes that disintegrate into the ground if they make it there, and as much or more bitter cold than many of these same places (Buffalo and much of W Michigan probably didn't see below zero wind chills). If next week bombs out with no snows over 2", I may start lighting up this thread because if there's one November we should see a lot of snow, it would be this one and so far it's a continuation of last year's winter season.

You hope it's just the NAM being the NAM, until... Back in those days, the NAM was pretty reliable for sniffing out a NW trend... To be perfectly honest, I kind of miss those days. They beat the hell out of the bi-polar model solutions we've been getting lately. At least you knew which way you were going to get screwed several days outs.

wisconsinwx Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 It's only November though... How much snow does Milwaukee average in November? Last 19 years, pretty much nothing lol. Still doesn't take away the fact that fall, which is the most boring season to begin with, has to last even longer because we have to wait until December for our first legit snow threat. Our last 18 Novembers before this one, I think the most snow we have had in November has been 3.0". Our old average was around 3.5" (that has since changed for obvious reasons). I thought this was the November that could change but now it may even be tough this year (though obviously have a pretty good chance of doing so).

So I can't imagine things being too different for Milwaukee... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
