Winter cancelled/uncancelled banter 25/26

[North and West]

Too bad this snow (or sleet?) won’t last for long. Should melt within a few days, similar to the last one we had 2 weeks ago here 

Thanks, Debbie.

Was zoning out last night and put on Fox Weather. For years, I’d just zone out with TWC. It’s not bad and better than When Alligators Attack or Ice Road Bandits or whatever series TWC pushes in prime time nowadays.

. i can't help but admire your set up there, however. the tree almost touches the ceiling; have you seen the documentary on the guy whose neighbors in idaho took him to court because he goes overboard with the decorations? pretty funny. but then, 5000 visitors to your neighborhood on christmas would piss anyone off.....i only have steaming now, no cable, so no weather channels. don't miss em.

Thanks! Christmas and Fourth of July are my personal favorite holidays. Thankfully, this tree is a Costco special 7’ for my 1950 ranch home with 8’ ceilings.

Because we treat model runs like they’re Vietcong positions.

Has anyone watched/completed Pluribus? Really good.

I don’t see how NWS New York could say 8” for Manhattan. Seems impossible. Storms like this just simply don’t produce those totals for the area. 

[Snowlover11]

What a fucking disappointment 7-11” forecasted and literally got 2.5” on the board and it has stopped snowing… safe to say BUST!

Biggest bust in many years over here. Forecast of around 8”, will end up with 2-3.” Even last storm had more. It would be comical if people didn’t completely throw out the most sensical model guidance. We were never going to have significant snow with a quick moving clipper that had a stout warm nose. Was never meant to be

This has to be up there in terms of some of the biggest busts within the last decade for NYC.
1. 3/7/18 (one of those days) busts for NYC. 8-12” was forecast and we ended up with 3-6.”

2. 3/14/17 was forecast 12-18+ and we had 7-10” of snow and sleet mix.

3. 1/27/15 was forecast 24”+ and we had 9-12”. 

4. 12/16/20 was forecast 12-18 and we had 8-12.”

5. 3/21/18 (one of those days) was forecast 12-18 and we had 9-12” 

6. 11/27/14 (one of those days) was forecast 3-5” and we ended up with 1”. 
 

There are a few more minor busts where we were a few inches off but arent worthy of mention.
Needless to say, we’ve had some big busts. Similarly, we’ve had some big booms.

But this one just seemed like a lock which is why it probably felt worse lol

[BxEngine]

Seriously man take a break. Making the same posts over and over isnt healthy. We heard you. It busted. Move onnnnnn

Take a deep breath and hug your family. They’re more important than this.

What's new. I have a hard time even getting excited for these storms anymore. Any storm predicted 6+ inches winds up busted. The 2-4 inch storms often times come to fruition. Whoopty damn do

Some of you need to grow the fuck up.

You are likely correct, but this is now the 3rd or 4th time you’ve written this in the past few days; message received.

did you remind the young family members how it’s physically impossible for Santa to visit every home in one night?

It can’t be often that Madison Wisconsin is10 degrees warmer than Central Park in December. As always …

 

[Volcanic Winter]

Wintriest December in quite a few years, I’ll certainly take it  .

Whenever the next legitimate snow threat happens is going to cause major issues because your average person will say “Oh that last storm was nothing” “the weather professionals were all wrong!” Is going to be out and about.

Central Park got 4.3 inches. They predicted 4 - 8 inches. Not sure how this is wrong. Other parts got less, sure, but other parts got more. Snow prediction maps are not supposed to be 100% accurate.
