The biggest diff b/w the promets and really good amatuer mets on this site...and a lot of other amatuer mets...is patience.

If you are an amatuer met and want to be a pro...go to school. If you are an amatuer met and want to be thought of as one of S2K's great amatuers...and we have several...

BE PATIENT.

Stop fawning all over every jump in the satellite and ever jog NW or W...OR N. Stop getting all crazy and calling things "trend is your friend" over 2 model runs. As TIME has proven...THERE WAS NO FRIEND IN THE TREND!!!!!!!!!!

So...get all geeked up over every little shift in everything...and continue to be thought of as an amatuer...and maybe an annoying one. Get some patience.


Many of you love the NHC...and you all know my issues with them. The one thing they have...IS PATIENCE. They lost that patience last night and we have a 150+ mile track shift over 3 advisories...only to end up headed for the same place. They won't make that mistake again.

I suggest you all stop making it too.

Now...sorry for the chewing out. I am taking a break and going to listen to the Eagles at the Toyota Center in Houston.

Peace.


Dude, I couldn't have said it better myself. Especially the part I bolded. It's insufferable sometimes trying to wade through the muck in the threads to find the gold nuggets of information.

I think the pro mets should make very heavy use of the Ignore/Foe option on this board, and save themselves a lot of stress by no longer reading people who clearly continue to post without thinking. Those people don't deserve the mets's time.

(Actually, *everyone* should make heavy use of the Foe option--mods, is there any way to have it be an option directly from the message boards, rather than having to go to a poster's profile?)

There are a ton of people who quite quickly show that they have no understanding of the issues at hand here, and aren't making any effort to learn (or are just inveterate people I disagree with) and so on the Foe list they go. Sometimes I'll see their comments if other people quote them, and most of the time it shows that I'm not missing anything.

Are the 18z models not out yet?

I typically see them on weather underground by 8 PM, but they are still showing the 12z.

Rock on AFM. Agreed. Ultimately though, it's just the internets. :)

876 mb 160 knot Cat 5 making landfall at Port Fourchon?



OK, I just made that up, but that would be scarier than an 899 mb.

Early cycle is only out for Low Josephine too for the last :45. Not sure what this means - probably nothing - but outside of the BAM's on SFWMD which show about the same place everything else has been hitting (and the Clipper which is even further east :D ), nothing much is out there. Haven't checked NCEP yet to see if they are rolling any of the 00z GFS yet.

Can anyone tell me about the Clipper model and why it is so far off from all the other models all of the time? There has to be some fundamental difference with the information they use to come up with their projections. I always know which one it is. At first I thought maybe it relied solely on climatology but then I thought that would be too obvious.

CLIPER starts with persistance, and increasingly blends in climatology, paths of storms in similar location at similar time of the year. So it should start out pointing the right direction, and then trend toward climatology.
