I know weather is anything but an exact science but really - this bust is so obvious i cant believe eveyone is still hanging on to it. I couldnt believe it even this afternoon when the Mayor shut down the city. I am a total amature and even I could see it hours ago as that magic little wall we all have come to know and love was keeping everything South and East. Peace yall - its over

I have been a member of this forum for quite a while and am still having trouble following those who really know what we will get weatherwise vs those who are guessing.

Seems to me that might cut down on some of the confusion. Just an observation.

They usually have the big Gold label that says ProMet.
And although I agree with a lot of what you're saying, you don't necessarily have to have a degree in meteorology to see a dark cloud moving towards you and know rain will soon come.
Some of these so-called amateurs have an abundance of weather experience. Don't believe srain has a degree in meteorology, yet I value his experience and wisdom in reading weather maps/patterns, plus finding the finer anomalies which could influence our weather.

I do believe people need to relax a little, especially when dealing with these Professional Meteorologist.
Meteorology isn't an exact science, and I don't see the day coming soon when weather can be predicted with 100% certainty.

Back to the topic of this thread;
My amateur observations finds the moisture increasing to our southwest/west.
This event hasn't even begun, and seriously I don't need to see 3-4" to be satisfied. Lived here since 72 and I get excited when I see one snowflake fall from the sky.

Yes I agree about not having to have a degree to add insight as well as Steve does, Weather is an art like someone said here once

I am an oddity, I suppose. I appreciate the time you all put in to making this board as wonderful as it is and answering all the questions that you do.
