Zirob would you like to elaborate, how I'm a weenie for a simple post about what the nam shows.. Not even my opinion about the nam, but only what it shows. And somehow I'm a location weenie? Sounds like you don't like what nam put out so you attack me? Am I wrong?.. Cause if you would like we can go back and find ALL my posts and not 1 single mention about my location and what I need for this to be a good storm up here.. But all I see is people whining about there back yards and blah blah blah.. Showing what a model shows no matter how accurate that model may be is not being a weenie, it's givin people's information....

My friend I didn't say that. That was someone else. I was just simply poking fun by pointing out your location. Didn't call you a weenie or criticize anyone about what the NAM was showing

But that's my point, I know where I live, and I'm about as far from a weenie as they come, i also do not post imby comments EVER and I was doubting that blizzard all night cause the short term sim radars didn't like it....and was getting badgered then... In any effect people need to stop taking posts about a model personally, I took these personally cause they were in fact directed towards me, not a model.... Voice your frustration about the models but not the people describing what they show

The 18z NAM predicts...Dallas wins Superbowl XLIX.

 

On a more serious note, I believe all the guidance needs to be considered right now given that the event is still more than 48 hours away. While the NAM's solution is probably a lower probability scenario, perhaps something close to one end of the proverbial spectrum of possible outcomes. It still looks like a pretty decent snowfall across much of the Metro area and suburbs, but final details remain to be resolved. I suspect an ECMWF-GFS compromise makes the most sense right now, but we'll see what happens.

Haha, not Washington? That would be a more NAM-esque solution!

Word's out about Sunday-Monday's storm. People are already talking about 12-24 in Boston because a social media modelogist posted something.

 

As much as I love weather, I hate the fact that social media has given anyone with a model and enough confidence to gain credibility. It undermines real meteorology.

Look, you post some meaningful stuff. But with all due respect, you are a tad irritable. Take it down a notch. Can't get bent out of shape over comments. Look at Snow88, people throw jabs at him all the time and he never hits back. Ok he's a big snow weenie but still....most of us are or we wouldn't be here. Me, I'm only here in the winter, unless a huge hurricane is coming, and that ain't often.

I'll just keep my posts to NW burbs forum cause as soon as models start trending out of someone's favor it's instantly hostile in those storm threads.. if the nam showed 2 feet for those couple of guys they would be spitting some nonsense about how it's a viable solution... The burbs and city bickering is redic and I'm over it lol

Maybe it will find a home here; having been safely minimized by me...

 

I look at the ECMWF, GFS, NAM, GGEM, RGEM, GEM-LAM (great is short range for snow precision)...I don't really look at the UKMET much, I do look at the ARW & NNM (which nailed Monday's cutoff)....the HRRR & RAP in the short range)...and I once lived & died with the SUNY MM5...the best rain / snow line model ever...but it seems to have been discontinued. You can end up looking at too many...as was the case on Monday...the ensembles (mainly GFS) I check occasionally...but it can get to be too much.

You know, I suffer from an ulcer...and after all those perfectly reasonable posts of mine were sent to the garbage bin...including the one you quoted that I was able to rescue...its been hurting ever since...that was not such a nice thing to do.
