No guarantee of 6 yet maybe 2 - 4 - higher amounts east He also said that the GFS has been trending towards the Euro and that the orientation of the trough makes a closer to the coast track much more likely today than it was yesterday.

Where do people think all that new technology came from? Evolving science of course. Science and technology are intrinsically linked. Congrats on the science family-- I bet they'll do better than the previous generation did. I think the best communicators in science were guys like Carl Sagan, who were both professional writers as well as scientists. Carl Sagan was exceptional at communicating science, maybe the GOAT (along with Isaac Asimov, who I would also put up there with him.) Sagan was a local boy, went to high school 5 mins from my location.....but he never talked about it much....Rahway HS ( yes the same one Milton Friedman went to ). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows how you can get radically different people coming out of the same HS. In the end I believe Sagan will be a much greater influence on the future of human society than Friedman.

I wouldn't put specific amounts out until tomorrow evening and just note "potential for a significant winter storm is increasing for Saturday" etc and that what we get is most likely to be snow. There'll probably be a big have/have-not difference like these storms normally give, NYC is in a tight spot like in most storms and hyping big amounts up can still backfire. There's still time tomorrow night or Thu or even Fri to discuss big amounts if models continue the trends. I remember the debacle around the 2/8/13 storm and the insane NAM run Channel 4 literally put up on screen, and the Armageddon like hype before 1/27/15. It really does make people less likely to pay attention before one really does hit. That said I have no idea what Lee Goldberg or anyone else is saying since I don't watch them anyway. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North and West Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 That's exactly what I thought he meant.The experts generally don’t like to use simple, straightforward language when communicating ideas. You see it in meteorology as well as Covid; my opinion is that they seem to want to sound as smart as possible to their peers, rather than their audience, who then get lost and tune them out, leading said experts to be annoyed when they’re not listened to. Just my $0.02. I see it in sales and marketing, too.Don’t bore us, get to the chorus.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Science majors have credit intensive programs and there's little time for classes in communications and such; the most they are likely to get is a required expo writing class, and maybe a social science class. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing people don't seem to understand with snowfall totals is there's a 10x variance in snowfall amounts vs rain (with a 10:1 ratio), so in reality what's a small difference is greatly magnified. I'm just glad that we probably won't have any mixing issues here. Anything else is fine by me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The potential for damaging coastal flooding and high winds and also the phase of the moon (new moon coming up) also adding to coastal damage was also mentioned and these would be issues with either of these tracks.

LibertyBell Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 21 minutes ago, bluewave said: This is the -AO -NAO substitute block showing up near the Canadian Maritimes that I mentioned the other day. While we usually have a 50/50 low, now there is a 50/50 ridge instead. So it takes the place of the -NAO and -AO and holds the high pressure on place over SE Canada and New England. We have seen this variation on several occasions since the snowier era began in 2003. Has this also led to more east coast impacting tropical cyclones since then? I remember us discussing this ridge in reference to that also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
