CoastalWx Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 I’m actually serious. You always are higher and it seems strange to me. Maybe it’s right, but it’s drawing Scooter flags. I called the dude out in my town about his winds too. They are always high...too high. He’s anemometer is like 10’ off the ground he he showed a gust to 70. That just seems off. Maybe dendrite would know if they can read too high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 You’re only good as your instruments. You’d be surprised how things are placed in areas where you wouldn’t suspect any issues, but it happens. Same with calibration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m more speaking of whatever digital intrsument you use. Like I said, the dude in N Weymouth simply has incorrect wind reports. We know Logan undercatches etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured you’d get all bent out of shape. I know you aren’t lying....but I know for a fact you can screw around with gauges that aren’t a stratus and get bad readings. If I was always higher or lower it would make me want to take a closer look. I mean look around this last storm. You beat those in the firehose and half inch higher than others in your county and N Foster just to your east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of figured you didn’t know about 2 day reports. East Brooklyn directly NW of me had .1 less than me. Bad Data Santa. Beat those in the firehouse? You mean 2.65 2 day is more than the 3.5 s in WCT. Got it. There were 39 CoCorahs stations in CT that got more than me. Some day you will understand you can’t calibrate a Stratus LOL you are taking this way to personally. What you should say is “Scooter my station and stratus are very close in most storms and the data seems accurate.” Or “Scooter my stratus is in a good spot and not prone to any issues with drop run off from trees or splashoff from roof.” Im well aware of totals. I went by BOX totals which defintely were less than what you have and it happens frequently. So naturally I hope you understand why it could arouse some suspicion. And all those branches hitting the house...hope stratus is far from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want to be bad data Santa at least use correct comparisons. Stations in a line 80 miles long all getting within an inch of each other. FYI I cut all the branches down in April and they were no where near the stratus. Yes I take it personally because it’s science not some game especially your accusations are that CoCorahs folks are not doing due diligence.

The number I saw was at 11pm yesterday so you are correct they had more after. But using Monroe CT to justify your total would give the state climatologist a heart attack. You should find others close to you. All I am saying is that you stand out at times in storm totals from nearby towns. Relax. You’re taking it way too personally.

CoastalWx Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 And any clown can be a Coco Crisp member. So yeah seeing obs from any geek off the street isn’t going to justify something unless I know he or she is diligent. No branches over house and comparing storms to superstorm of 93.

CoastalWx Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Steve you took this way too personal. I literally just asked about the storm total since it seemed high and noticed it before. Jesus you’d think I accused you of lying. In any science, it’s perfectly ok to ask. Stuff gets thrown out all the time after being QCd. Didn’t Fisher bust your chops yesterday? I look at coop and other data all the time. Some of it is suspicious when totals vary over a half inch within 5 miles from a synoptic event. Not many know or understand the intracacies of taking obs. I know you do, but speaking of a more wider issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your elevation probably hurt you a bit. Some of the lower els around you (Woodstock RWIS) never mixed out until the cold frontal passage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
