bring rain gear
have any idea of what kind of rain to expect? drizzle? driving rain?
To me if you care and watched the video - they seem to try and block the Sun. If you notice in Jersey there is always cloud cover to the West.
They don't want to show us the Sunset in the West - it seems like to me that there is max UV Light coming from the Sun for some reason but as kid the Sun was golden yellow going back to the 80's but now to me it is more white yellow - like the Sun is burning hotter.
To me it almost seems like the cloud cover - the sky looks fake. It has changed since I was a kid - no doubt. Looks fake to me.
Peace out
Another awful job by the "experts".the models have been awful...do not let people tell you otherwise
Missed this thread. Even on Thursday, there was considerable spread in the model output for Saturday, with a couple of models showing a nearly dry afternoon NW of 95 (and especially NW of 78/287), then on Friday it started becoming clear that the worst of the rain on Saturday would be confined to the DelMarVa and South Jersey, especially towards the Shore, which is exactly what happened, although even there the 1-2" of rain that generally fell was less than the 2-4" or more being forecast. Early Friday morning I tried to convince our friends who live close to 78/287 to not postpone their Saturday afternoon BBQ, but they did - would've been fine, although I can see why they did. Certainly not a shining moment for most mets.
Zarrow on 101.5 is the biggest hedger and he refuses to tailor his forecasts seperating north, central and south jersey so often the hype of heavy rains which were supposed to be confined south gets confused in his overall forecast for the entire area. For those watching close like you or I saw a big trend on the models much like a snow event in the winter going south...I had an issue with too much jumping over the models runs in midrange rather than using forecasting tools. I saw a met in the NE forum question this event being able to happen given stuff he saw on the map. We need more than just model regurgitation which I think mets are falling back on too much
