Which models sniffed this storm out first? I think it might have been UKIE

[Warwick WX]

There was a local contest to win gift certificates for exact snow amounts, and my final call for PVD airport was 16.6 inches.  Well Cotton, we'll see if it pays off...

GFS held serve here with 1.78 qpf both 18z and 0z.

The Snowman being upset about missing the storm is fine, but the level of salt they doing isn't. There will always be other storms down the pipeline. This is a public forum after all, no need to have a temper tantrum.

You do NOT understand the Basic Math Equation of HOW MUCH I actually AM home every year for winter (My travel is mostly May through November ), and yet HOW MANY of the big events I’ve STILL missed.  I’m not typing them all out again.  I have 12 Hobbies and a Worldwide Music Career.  The Thing I Love more than ANYTHING ON THIS EARTH is a Big Snowstorm.  Maybe you still don’t get it.  

 

I Understand Bad Luck.  But this recently has gotten Absolutely Mother F******* ReDonkulous.  I could Actually chuck an accordion or of the Hilton right now.

Yeah it’s just snow, it’s not that big of a deal. We have all of February and March so it’s not like winter is anywhere near over. I missed a huge storm when I went skiing in Colorado years ago, didn’t really give a shit because I was too busy having a blast skiing with my friends. Now if the Pats lose, I’m setting my house on fire.

Well, let's see...you leave to attend the Grammies, which occur during our peak snow-climo, every year...so why is this so shocking?

[CT Valley Snowman]

Enjoy the storm everyone.  I'm in S. Florida where it was 82 today.  First call for my town was 15".  I'll stick with it although 17-18" wouldnt shock me at all.

You’ve gotta own the decisions you make in your life and not throw a tantrum if something didn’t go your way (like a New England snowstorm while you’re away)

The reach of this storm is breathtaking and probably is up there with past HECS.

This shall rank high on the KU scale.

Just ready for this to get here already. 

It's getting ugly in the south. RDU at 19 with light ZR. Greensboro 15 with light ZR. That's a disaster waiting to happen.

It's a proprietary algorithm from the F5 pay site.... @ORH_wxmanwill tell you that it's usually conservative and good at sniffing out BS in marginal set ups.

I was home November 7th to January 20th.  WILL be Home February 3rd to March 3rd.  HOW much do I have to be home to be lucky?  

I was Only gone 2 weeks in the entire winter of 2011, and MISSED the Blizzard of 2011.  Same situation in 2022.  Was Gone 10 Days of February and March and April of 2018, and still Missed the Bomb inside those 10 days.  

 And it’s not just the Grammys, it’s about 5 concerts, the Mega 4 day NAMM Convention, and many other private events, packed into a 2 week period.  

 

I’m Home 85% of Winter every year, and miss 60% of the Major Events.

You people Really don’t understand basic % do you.  Can forecast a Snowstorm like a Champion, but can’t understand Being Home 85% of the time YET still missing almost 2/3’s of the major weather events.  This isn’t hard.  On Top of the fact that there’s Nothing More in life I desire than what you guys are About to see.  You guys have 9-5’s where you stay in your region.  I Travel to perform for a living.  I Don’t have a choice.  

 

But if I had JUST BASIC OK Luck, Not Good, Not Bad, just average, I would have no issue.

Here's what to do, if you want my amateur advice....

 

 

Grab the accordion, get on the bed, strip down and face east while ripping out as many tunes as you can.
