To be honest, I won't believe any snow till I see it on the ground. I have a tough time believing what most meteorologists say since it's mostly based on probability and computer simulations.

Your best bet is to wait till the day before to potentially get a more accurate forecast, and then any storm system that comes through might miss your area completely.

I'm hoping for a dry, snowless winter since I'd like to avoid getting stuck in traffic because of it.

 

[smr00]

Oh look! Knoxville isn't getting any snow.

We haven't had any good snow in like 10 years.

 

[Konka]

The storm in that new map casually skips over NYC.

I don't know what to believe.

That much snow in NYC this time of year would be extremely rare.

 

[ahoyhoy]

Please don't hit Maryland! I'm hoping for a winter with no snow this year.

psshhh... that's like wishing for a winter where it doesn't alternate between 30 degrees and 70 degrees in any given week

 

[Amir0x]

*looks at locations*

No, fuck off snowstorm. Fuck off.

 

[Tashi]

Fucking shit. I just went to the gym today with shorts and a tshirt. I was kind of hoping Winter wasn't coming this year lol

 

[jchap]

These tree leaves need to hurry up and get out of here or there will be massive power outage

 

[brandonh83]

Know what's awesome? Being able to walk to work. Still, be safe people.

 

[DoomGyver]

We'll probably get snow, but heck it should melt on contact. Now if it had been below freezing for a couple of weeks I'd be worried.

 

[rrs]

My body is ready (only 1-2 inches here)

Good. Don't want to stand outside waiting for a ps4 in snow lol

 

[Shambles]

Snow in winter? Stop the presses! /canadiannotgettingit.

 

[Amir0x]

Snow in winter? Stop the presses! /canadiannotgettingit.

nobody likes canadians anyway, get out of here

 

[Sanjuro]

NO

 

[bcl0328]

BRING IT TO MARYLAND!!!

 

[Zen_Arcade]

I swear, if the power goes out at my house because of a snowstorm the weekend that PS4 comes out I'm going to be super pissed.

 

[Slayer-33]

Bring it to NYC! Body is ready

 

[Roubjon]

Eh, they always over hype these things. I'll believe it when I see it.

Bring on the snow though, I love it.

 

[Griegite]

I don't trust weather models that are almost a week away. When the models are predicting this 3 days away, I'll start thinking about the possibility of snow.

 

[amnesiac]

Please hit Michigan. I love snow.

 

[Captain Tuttle]

Let's do this

 

[Konka]

The models showed Sandy from over a week away. Well the Euro, which is the latest map in this thread.

im in that little circle byee gaf :***(

 

[BigWeather]

The forecast fizzle the snow? Thread has been so quiet today. =/

 

[Regiruler]

Put the location in the title next time.

East Coast is all that matters in the end obviously

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

I saw snow today.
Woke up at 5am and saw it. What a delight.

 

[friskykillface]

I saw hail/snow for a minute or two today, was really random and it was freezing.

the snowmagedon is coming, and on PS4 launch week too, hmmmmmm

 

[Parablank]

Ugh it misses Michigan

Snow needs to come early this year

 

[Trojita]

Now my area isn't showing anything.

 

[Neferteetee]

Hmm looks like most of CT won't get much if anything. My dog will be disappointed, my back not so much.

 

[OfWhiteSkinOnRedLeather]

The forecast fizzle the snow? Thread has been so quiet today. =/

Just rain in CT now. Sucks because I'll be camping at that time. Snow would have been more welcome than rain.

 

[sphagnum]

Ugh stay out of New Jersey please. Already have enough car problems as it is, don't need to add shoveling and dealing with bad drivers to the list.

 

[Prologue]

NY is saved! PS4 is a go!

 

[Baraka in the White House]

I live in Texas and the only snow I've ever seen here was a freak system in November when the planets aligned just right and conditions came together for a whopping 3 inches of snow in the Houston area. It was fucking magical, shit stayed on the ground until noon the next day.

 

[jim-jam bongs]

This is one of those rare moments I'm glad that I live in Florida

 

[Jayayess1190]

I don't have any boots. Love snow but not ready yet.

 

[slit]

I'm bumping this to show the inaccuracies of accuweather.

Where was this huge snowstorm?

They're a bunch of liars and Facebook helped it along.

 

[bcl0328]

no snow in MD

 

[akira28]

man...fuck Ohio.

 

[slit]

man...fuck Ohio.

It didn't happen anyway, so you just fucked your state for nothing.

 

[akira28]

It didn't happen anyway, so you just fucked your state for nothing.

I'm actually on the east coast. I just have a grudge against Ohio.

Meh, I can't tell if you're serious here, but if they didn't warn people of the potential storm their models were suggesting, people would be pointing back saying "why weren't we warned in advance of this?!". Predicting more than a week out with any accuracy tends to be difficult, but they still have to try. They were very careful to not sensationalize it either (which the Weather Channel does all the fucking time, to be fair), just look at the language in the report; may set the table, are likely, should be, may help a storm form, need to be ironed out, it is likely, potentially.

A few storm scenarios exist...
Another possible option..
A third scenario...

Hell, they even said "Yeah, we're probably wrong, here's why."

Goldberg added that this era of improved weather forecasting technology is a double-edged sword. He said the ability to predict a potential snowstorm a week in advance is great but leaves meteorologists with several days where it's hard to pinpoint specifics.

Please ignore if my sarcasm detector is broken.

I know, I was only being half-serious. It got sensationalized through Facebook though so I'll just blame them. Damn Facebook.

Yep, that's what I figured but I can never be sure.

Facebook is definitely a better place the blame though. For everything.

There was snow in my part of NYC (Queens) a few days ago.

No accumulation whatsoever but it was nice to see.

 

[Lamel]

Yeah, there was 1 inch in a supposed 12-14 inch region. Goes to show that weather is unpredictable until you're very close.

 

[Azulsky]

How can you people live at latitudes where the temperature drops low enough for water to crystallize.

 

[Lamel]

That's possible even in Florida. So...

 

[Edwardo]

The commute to work is going to be great
