AtomicSkier Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 wow it really doesn't stop...can't wait to see the snowpack when we return...the back bowls at blue might actually be skiable Quote
Johnny Law Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 Storms have generally over performed when compared to the models so there is a possibility of more. Tues/Weds = possibility of a little dust up, models all over the place Feb 10/11 = possible bomb, keep an eye on this one Quote
phillycore Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 Feb 10/11 = possible bomb, keep an eye on this one Uh oh!!.... Hope this one stays up north. JFSkiDan and I Fly back into PHL on the 10th Quote
phillycore Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 I hope PA keeps getting dumped on well into spring.... me too, just north of King of Prussia....lol Quote
Timeless Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 The weather blogs over here on the west coast are talking about a major pattern change that will flip you guys back into a warm pattern and bring the snow back to us for the latter part of February, BUT, they are also counting down the east coast storms (3 more before the shift) and saying that the last one could be the "storm of the century", not sure if that just means the biggest since the year 2000 or if it's a hundred year event, but either way it seems there are a lot of people concurring that this will be one huge storm hitting you guys at or shortly after the 10th.

Johnny Law Posted February 4, 2011 Report Posted February 4, 2011 The weather blogs over here on the west coast are talking about a major pattern change that will flip you guys back into a warm pattern and bring the snow back to us for the latter part of February, lulz We are in a strange new world last year and this....... Both years the longer the cold has stuck around more people start screaming about how we are going to warm up. I'm not saying that we won't but its just funny to me...eventually they just yell about warming until April and then say they were right. lulz The models were off last year but not wrong, this year they are all over the place and just plain wrong sometimes. GFS/NAM/EURO says blizzard for 10/11 for the last 5/6 days, then all the sudden today the GFS says no storm, all energy phases into the ocean. Could that happen sure but what's more likely is our models suck because the way energy is interacting in our system is just fucking bonkers right now. This isn't a global climate change discussion but our weather models for the most part have sucked donkey dick this winter and weren't great last year. Weather is a complicated business but I like this idea about global climate change and increased heat and energy in the NE, it would certainly explain the general weirdness latley. What's kinda weird is the lack of $$$ for weather models Quote
