SnowHole413 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I understand where Tip is coming from though. He is just saying that this is a very complex set up and we're 4.5 days out still. People are already setting expectations for 1-2 feet which may or may not happen. I hear him, all his posts have wisdom behind it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
78Blizzard Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I've had my run-ins with Tip, but in his defense this is a model discussion thread and, as such, all opinions should be welcome, not just those favorable to a big snowstorm. And as a Met, his thoughts should, and do, carry more weight than most of us on here. Picking on a "5+ day" statement is petty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one addressed a factual inaccuracy in your post, and quietly contemplated the rest of it. If you are looking for pats on the back for suggesting [valid] ways for this to not produce snow for posters in this subforum, then it's all on you for being clueless about where you are posting. Go start your own board, no weenies allowed. See how well it does. Great post!!! Perfectly put!! That needed to happen! If it sh*ts the bed in the next couple days..I think most of the regulars here understand that's a distinct possibility..and are well aware of that. The discussion has been superb imo!! It's what we do here...and it's ok to be a LIL excited about what we see unfolding...and we all know that any one of these depictions/models could be wrong/or also close to being correct. It's great we even have the opportunity to track a winter system...so I'm appreciative of that alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whineminster Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Tippy says we scrape :(. At this lead time I'd like to see the biggest snows over PF and ALB, because just like the clipper, suppression is always more likely than inland runner. On another note - if the Kuchera ratios are so out of whack.....why don't they just get rid of it or modify it? What's the point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 This is where it gets entertaining. When the brawls at Fenway and MSG ensue over such minor words put in a post, then we diverge and fight over the jacks. Bring it, come get some.

You missed my point. He was picked on for saying we are at 5+ days out when we are 4 days out. Big deal. His other points made were completely valid.

Because it attempts to use more science than a 10:1 ratio, but it just can't handle all snowfall scenarios. Like near isothermal snowfall, shallow, near-zero warm layers, or very cold surface temperatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUNNAWAYICEBERG Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 gfs looks good, broken record at this point but the ridge looks sharper out west. I dunno, I'm tired just give me the weenie maps at this point. jk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
