Typhoon Tip Posted February 17 Author Share Posted February 17 17 minutes ago, 40/70 Benchmark said: It wasn't the case last year because we had one winter storm all season. Mm, last year raged on in a pan-systemic speed issue that was yet more pronounced than this year... We have them this year, too, but we've had a few intervals where that relaxed markedly. That was not the case last year pretty much at any point after the Dec event. The more I think back the frustration's coming back to my memory, and I remember last year as being too fast/speed contaminated in the hemisphere, in fact...the fastest I personally recalled since this velocity saturation shit began 10 or so years ago... And a lot of systems were merely just not given a chance to formulate critical cyclone scaffolding ( cross-sectional jets/ restorative flows mechanics...etc...). Lot of unorganized masses of evaporating failures smeared thru cyclone transit routes... In other words, unknowable because unexposed by virtue of not given the chance. Kind of like diseases that effect older people? 200 years ago... some of these were not known - Christ it predates genetic science too... People lived to the ripe old age of death before Alzheimer's had a chance to kick in (example). Nature's like that - it buries it's right pump bums behind immediate layers. haha ...true though in some sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baroclinic Zone Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 4 minutes ago, ORH_wxman said: Spoiled rotten....once you grab a couple double digit storms in a season, advisory or even low end warning is meh, esp if it all doesn’t fall in 4-5 hours. I get it, big rates are fun, but they just don’t always happen with the frequency we desire. The alternative is partly cloudy, 37F and breezy with warm bum-bums in the car if you park it in the sun while the pack sublimates. No thanks. I’ll happily take an advisory refresher. Funny part is if this event was on the docket last February, it would be a totally different vibe...we couldn’t buy a 3” storm last winter after December until spring time. Not spoiled at all. And I haven't had a 10" storm this year and my last one was 3 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40/70 Benchmark Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Its nuts how a season will just grab a hold of a storm pattern like a pit bull and just never let go....that LBSW element to each storm. Porked in my area, and prokier to my NE, up in ME. Last two el nino's act like a la nina, and nail NNE...now la nina acts like an el nino and nails s of pike. Gonna need ENSO neutral here, I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want to keep the winter vibe going, that’s all. Yes, squeezing every bit of dynamics from each shortwave is ideal but impossible...so I’ll take what we can get and enjoy it. Pack still strong after yesterday’s melt too, frozen overnight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t totally hate the upside of this storm but a lot would need to go right to pull 10-12. It hasn’t trended that way so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Just now, Ginx snewx said: Yea no way I would diss this in any way Nope.... 6-10” pike south... and the majority of that falls in a consolidated span... so this 4” over 36 hours really doesn’t exist.

A few inches of snow on top would really help. That ice storm was as bad as I've seen here since 2008. I think Brian was getting sleet but I was all freezing rain. I'll post some pics in the other thread. thick ice everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
