When the RGEM / GEM was consistently not in the camp, it gave me pause. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowloverSid Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 50 minutes ago, Ohiobuckeye45 said: Glad we're not the only ones stunned I can commiserate with the total whiff of a storm. Nearly five decades ago, in December 1974, we were supposed to get a huge storm in our part of the Northeast. Parts of the Midwest had gotten blitzed, and forecasters were sure that a second low would form off the Atlantic coast. I was looking forward to a snow day as Sunday became Monday. The sky looked especially ominous on both Sunday and Monday. However, we ended up getting less than one inch. Not only did that storm miss, but so did practically every other storm that winter. And that was followed by one of the coldest March- April periods ever. None of the cutters missed us, however. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially the European Euro used to be significantly better at medium range track and intensity of storms. No question about it in my opinion. I can recall them doing an upgrade to it several years ago and it’s never been the same. It’s strange because it was a bit after that it became a free to view model. It’s actually ridiculous when you think of how it used to be basically the go to model. Right now the CMC is looking pretty good with what it had predicted from early on. It’s tough though because the CMC can be bad at times also. We’ve seen several times this year it stuck to something then change just like what the GFS just did… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin BuckeyeGal Posted February 12 Admin Share Posted February 12 I think this is the image that makes me the most angry. Strong as all get-out storm.. in the EXACT place we want it for a good snow.. but nothing on the NW quadrant. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All winter we have had bad track and cold, right track and no cold, now right track and no qpf. At some point something has to change, right? I'm assuming we've got a chance at a top 5 least snowy winter here? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowloverSid Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 This is looking like another BFN ( big fat nothing) for St. Louis. I hope we can miss out on the rain as well, though the skies are getting grayer every hour. Just 36 hours ago, some models were showing four inches of snow for us. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobB Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Unfortunately for many in the northeast thread, they are getting hosed the same way we did. This system is portrayed as flatter and flatter... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWOhioChaser Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Great Lakes juju is a real thing. Missus and I had to drive to New York for the week. Made it to Bloomingburg yesterday. Great position there for a storm right? Nope. Storm shifted south last minute. Was 8-12” now down to 1-3”. Yikkkkes. Going to hide myself under some blankets now. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yikkkkes. Going to hide myself under some blankets now. Similarly, with family in the western suburbs of Boston, I've been following their snow forecast. Yesterday early AM 10-16" forecast, early last evening 5-9" and as of this morning a sloppy 3-5" with a high of 35. Let’s see what they actually get. Edit to add: Today’s forecast now down to 1-2”. Update: Final observation, a dusting on the grass! Ouch! BTW, I was in your neck of the woods last week. Hit the Museum of the Great Lakes and Tony Packo's.

I went from 15 inches to zippo in about 12 hrs. 😆 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
