No offense Jman, just offering my 2 cents since you asked. I've been a part of many message boards before, this, my first weather one. There always seems to be at least 1 guy on every board, whose general personality and ways of contributing, put people off. It can be hard to pinpoint, explain and even harder for you to actually see in yourself. So most, just avoid commenting as it's just an endless, cyclical situation that will never change. In general, you are pretty harmless as others have stated openly on the boards or through PMs. It's like any point in life - HS, college, professionally, socially as adults, on message boards, etc. where you just meet a mix of people. Some you immediately connect with, others, you never will and some have hit or miss moments. All parties deal with things the best they can and hope for the best experience. Ultimately, a school motto we have where I teach is, "You can't say, you can't play." I tell this to kids all the time. I say you are not going to like every person you meet, you don't have to be friends with everyone and you may not want to engage or play with some, but you have to respect all people and not limit their rights to "play" and live their lives.
I myself, have just worked hard on moving on and focusing on just adding when I can and enjoying what so many others contribute, which is more than I could. Because for awhile, focusing on the annoyances, was ruining my experience here and making me want to leave.
Hope that helps.
I was just surprised at mugs cuz we know each other well, albeit I do ask IMBY questions JMAN luv you brother but you answered it adn admitted to this. This MAYBE an AREA WIDE issue. We have some time to see this and the EPS was a few ticks further as well adn the NAM is the furthest MODEL North making it a driving rainstorm after an initial dump. Every nudge, tick, jump mean teh world of difference in teh NYC metro region

And just like Upton they wait till the last second well here it is. Looks like precip is going to be a bit further north as hi-res models have been showing today, hoping to see some flakes out of it. Nothing too crazy, theres WSW going up way to the north, guessing thats for Mon/Tues.

Re: FEB 13th-16th Snow, Ice and Rain
I admitted that I USED to do that ALOT, I do not believe I do so so much anymore. I know its cool. Looks nasty, verbatim there im on the cusp of ice or rain so who knows. Yes I agree could be a area wide issue.=, and the snowpack is a good point, it keeps surface colder and doesnt allow things to warm up as much but in upper atmosphere we get that transfer to rain and the recipe is not good. Do I have that kinda right? And is that the NAM or the Euro pictured?amugs wrote:jmanley32 wrote:First I appreciate that and your right, but I was just surprised at mugs cuz we know each other well, albeit I do ask IMBY questions but I think my mood this year as you ever so put it as erratic in nature earlier on, has since been pretty steady and not jumping on and off the train.

yes, it is getting a little messy, because folks are looking at both events in the same thread. Just keep an eye on the time stamps on the maps, most of what has been posted recently are from now through Tuesday. There isn't much precip expected in NNJ tonight, although what falls will be messy. At this point, I am looking at the radar for today and wait and see what we get. I plan on staying in until at least later tomorrow. Be safe!

Re: FEB 13th-16th Snow, Ice and Rain
Also, let's put all obs in the Feb. obs thread so we can keep the storm discussion here. It will be interesting to see who gets what and it will get buried in here. Please make sure you put your location if it is not in your profile.

Re: FEB 13th-16th Snow, Ice and Rain
The precip you see on that radar is NOT expected to move very far north. As stated, many people may actually be dry this weekend. I know the HRRR is showing decent amount of precip later tonight into tomorrow morning but I’m not buying into it right now.
Latest NAM shows freezing rain NW of I-95 early Tuesday morning before changing to plain rain

Appreciate the response from you and Frank. Planning on going to a friends house tonight but they are just a couple miles away. Been looking at the time stamps and Frank has relayed that not too much moisture is expected to make it to NNJ tonight.

18Z GFS track similar to 18Z NAM. Coastal hugger and consequentially warm. Let's hope this has the right idea. The big difference is where it places the TPV and High pressure. Further west means warmer and less ice.

So we are talking Euro/UK solutions v. GFS/NAM at this point? Gut says don't bet against the Euro but what do I know...

Re: FEB 13th-16th Snow, Ice and Rain
18Z Euro continues the threat of significant to severe icing for NW of the I-95. Might be a touch colder than 12Z.
I want to see the NAM in good range before I believe its storm track and thermal profiles. Good range is tomorrow night for NAM. The XFactor is the antecedent snow on the ground. That will make a difference at the surface.

Re: FEB 13th-16th Snow, Ice and Rain
GFS has all rain it come so far west the ice threat is shifted to just south to as far as north of albany!! When you giuys said a NW trend I did not think canada by tomorrows runs.
CMC brings a grim reality to LHV & NW NJ with 1.00+ frz, which is just horrific if it happened. CMC also came north too keeping most just rain. CP and doc and others in the top corner of NJ, I would start getting real concerned up there, I doubt this drops all way back down to metro area though who knows, but it is still 2 days out. Anyway you cut it to me it appears the models are consistant on a severe line of frz... someone is going to have a massive ice storm from central northern NY to NYC....these models have no clue who though. Frank wasn't kidding saying this was go be a difficult forcast.

Re: FEB 13th-16th Snow, Ice and Rain
yeah no fun, i wrote a story somewhere of my experience once, the CMC is a devastating bluw mon/tues to a huge swath. If the CMC happened verbatim (I hope the CMC is very unlikely) it could have trickle down effects into NYC by killing the main feeder lines and substations to NYC from up north with over a inch ice in LHV. scary crap.Joe Snow wrote:Got an ice coating on the cars and stairs, nearly broke my butt walking down the stairs taking the dog out, she went slip sliding as well.

Re: FEB 13th-16th Snow, Ice and Rain
Not buying the CMC or RGEM with this
I think we’re all looking at plain rain. No ice.

Re: FEB 13th-16th Snow, Ice and Rain
0Z Euro definitely came in a bit warmer. I still think LHV, EPA, NEPA and NWNJ are at risk for icing. Even if surface does warm eventually think the surface cold holds out long enough to be sig icing. >= .5"

Re: FEB 13th-16th Snow, Ice and Rain
Severe icing if that comes to fruition.
Timing appears to be 7-8pm tomorrow and into the overnight hours. By the time 8am Tuesday rolls around I think majority of us will be done with the freezing rain/rain. That is a small 'win' if you consider the freezing rain falls during a time when we're least active on the roads!

I agree with you. I think the highest risk is west of the Fall Line especially in areas of > 500' ASL. I'm fully expecting between .25" - .5" IMBY towards the Lehigh Valley. NEPA should expect > .5" as should NW NJ, and LHV IMO. The ground has been cold for a really long time and that must be considered in this setup.

Possibly ignorant / basic question but what is the "Fall Line"?
