psuhoffman Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 3 minutes ago, Eskimo Joe said: My line of work (emergency management) you can't enjoy 6-10" of snow. You'd in bed at 8on to be up for the 4am call where they hem and haw about closing school and government "well its snowed 8 inches, but its only 4:30 am. Maybe the sun will come out at 6 and melt everything off." Then you're in work at 7 putting in a normalday while everyone else is off. The only time people like ERS and I can even slightly enjoy events are the big ones where you're cleaning up for a few days. We don't take decisions lightly....tens of thousands of dollars are lost each day schools or government are closed. So when we banter about "well the Euro and NAM are wrong, it'll be a big storm" folks like ERS groan on Facebook chat because we've seen these DC Fails time after time. Ok so once or twice a decade you are happy. You must be a blast to hang out with. Life of the party. If the meteorology thing falls through maybe you can get a job at the crisis hotline center. After talking with you for 5 minutes they won't think their life is that bad. And the NAM and euro sucked for totally different reasons. The NAM is over amped and the euro was under. Not to mention that the 4K and 3k NAM are much better. So putting them together to justify your position is weird at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For ****ssake, the trolling can be relentless. Had to double check that as well. No, it is a solid run though it really puts DC/Balt into the risk of under achieving category because they are riding the rain/snow line. Just north and west we see 10+ to over a foot totals.

North Balti Zen Posted March 12, 2017 Author Share Posted March 12, 2017 Series of historic model runs with one model run that is merely almost historic and poster uses that to sew panic. Awesome. Back to lurking today for sanity's sake. Good luck mods and gods be with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 12 K though cuts it real close for the cities. But even that was a positive as it shifted the rain/snow line further south and east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
