Official Weather Complaint Thread

[NEJeremy]

No one is forcing you to read this thread

That's what Money likes to do, call people names and just overall act like he's better than you. Great guy.

[OKwx2k4]

It's a complaint thread. Whining is pretty much encouraged. Lol.

Yup

 

It wouldn't be so bad if the NE peeps didn't complain in EVERY thread

[clintbeed1993]

Yup

You don't live here so you have no right to tell us when we can and cannot complain.  This is a complaint thread for complaining.  Go away.

[Snowlover76]

You try getting screwed in every storm and every good pattern

[Grizzcoat]

You try getting screwed in every storm and every good pattern

Yep-- same thing happening here in central IA--- forecast of 2-4" turned into .4" -- half of which was ice pellets-- of which none was forecast. NWS here has been miserable the last several events

[Snowlover76]

Yawn

[FarmerRick]

Yawn

 

 

Oh, come on!!!   Don't you like rain and 50mph winds in late December?    

[Snowlover76]

What a garbage winter so far.

[jaster220]

What a garbage winter so far.

 

And now Maine gets a blizzard. Blizzards to the west and now to the east..

[jaster220]

Sick stuff too - NWS expecting 20-30 mb drop in 12 fricken hrs! Can you say TSSN??

[Grizzcoat]

Is Flowers still holding on to his prediction??

[Andrew NE]

Is Flowers still holding on to his prediction??

He said he was holding as of Christmas, I keep checking though as I feel any day now he will come out with a video post. It just seems out of reach at this point. Who knows though. I'm banking on the Boston winter of 2015. Didn't have squat in December and first half of January and then hit big to finish out the winter. Haha. Not likely I know.

[jaster220]

Per this dude's vid, the specific forecast ain't all that important...

[East Dubzz]

Whine some more

Do you get pleasure by being a **** over the internet?

 

Complain away folks, I know I sure as hell would be pissed with a pattern like you guys have gotten.

[ToastedRavs]

Here we go again....and no, not talking the Whitesnake song.  Here we go again on our own... winter of misery.  Yippee

[ToastedRavs]

And a side note...I will be at Busch Stadium Monday.  So, hopefully the Chicago stealing of our joyous winter moments will end with a Blues' win.  Let's go BLUES--- perhaps in the rain.  Yippee...again. 

[CentralNebWeather]

00z gfs more snow in north Texas than we have had all year. can think of many bad words to use, but to be kind I will go with craptastic since I have seen that word used more this winter than ever before. Next week will be cold so we got that going for us. Yippee.

[clintbeed1993]

Cold and dry...wash..rinse..repeat...bang

[Grizzcoat]

Since the snowblower broke 3 winters ago,, the wife has been hassling me to replace it. I  said we don't need one anymore, cuz we don't get anymore winter events over 6". At this pace-- I'am going to get rid of my shovels also. All they do is collect dust,, more dust then snow shoveled

[GDR]

It's been a good 16'years ago since my last great winter. Now just turds in the wind.

[Snowlover76]

I'm on the verge of a compleate meltdown. Screw anyone who says we have no right to melt over this. Im

[CentralNebWeather]

Have used the snowblower once in 3 years. It is in the garage but haven't really even thought about it. bastardi's winter forecast had the central plains in above normal snowfall. I like him, but he hasn't shown that graphic in a long time, just his cold forecast. Jim flowers had predicted over 40 inches. We would need an epic change in the pattern and record snowfall the next 3 months for this to happen.

I hope I am totally wrong but looking at brown ground almost every day is depressing.

[Niko]

I want a D**n blizzard man, I mean, wtf. Why can we get a BLIZZARD in SEMI, (OK, SWMI also, so Jaster doesn't complaint like a baby ). This weather pattern betta gets its act together, or ELSE!!!!!!!! Now, I need a drink from all of this winter frustration, geez!

 If I remember correctly, aren't you in the snow removal business?

[OKwx2k4]

You folks in Nebraska need to get that Omadome in check. That thing is consuming over an 8th of the US now. Lol

I remember going to Boston on vacation and hearing this strong accent they all have there...i.e, the word "Car" sounds like they are pronouncing it "Ca".   

 

Tbh, I use fake words a lot also. You should see how my nieces write..its like a whole new different language.

 

Hey, you gotta have a little sense of huma in this forum, right?!

Got a book for Christmas called Nebraska weather. Put out by the Omaha world herald, it is filled with great photography and history of all 12 months.

 

One paragraph just struck me, it says our lasting snow cover has become less frequent, I agree with that. It then goes on to say that the snow season has shrunk by over 6 weeks since the 1980's due to a general warming.

 

I had not seen this before. Any other Nebraskans heard this information before? Have others read or experienced this shrinking snow season in your state?

Not a Nebraskan but I've noticed in the long term trends that the cold seasons did shorten post climate shift of the late 70s over almost all of the central US. I know there's a lot who think it's global warming but I don't think it has much to do with it. My mesonet page has the seasonal averages since 1895 on a graph and it's very obvious to me that it's cyclical and more related to a longer cycle/tendency of the pdo. The cold seasons should lengthen as we go forward over the next few years. I think the unusual nina, pdo, temperature quadripole in the Pacific is the beginning of that trend. Time will tell though.

[OKwx2k4]

This graph illustrates it pretty well. I'm sure your state would look similar.

Thanks. That is a great chart. I know when I ask about the 1970s my dad says that many talked about a coming ice age and shorter growing seasons and shortages of food that might then occur.

Yeah. I've researched a lot of articles written around the 1976-1980 timeframe that were full-on apocalyptic cold panic. Lol. Not entirely dissimilar to the AGW panic of the present.

[CentralNebWeather]

Wow people are upset today. Then let us complain here without judgment.

[CentralNebWeather]

Find it interesting that some can complain on any thread but if Nebraskans do we are called out. Good to know.

I just posted about this in another thread. Stuff like that is what kills a forum.

[mlgamer]

That chart corresponds perfectly to the weather I experienced over the years in the NE Kansas area.

 

One year in the early 1980s, Topeka had at least 1" or more of snow on the ground for I believe 54 consecutive days. It is hard to imagine that could ever happen here now based on the winters of the last 20-30 years.

[Thunder98]

I understand why you guys in Nebraska are complaining.
