12z GFS brought a blizzard for everyone.
.... then HPC told us it was full of errors.
QUANTITIES...INCLUDING HEIGHT/VORTICITY FIELDS/RH...ARE EVIDENT IN
BOTH THE 12Z NAM/GFS WITH SMALL BUT LIKELY SIGNIFICANT SHORTWAVE
TROUGHS OVER SOUTH DAKOTA/NEBRASKA ALONG WITH
SASKATCHEWAN/MANITOBA...WITH THESE AREAS ALSO NOT PARTICULARLY
RESOLVED OR PREDICTED WELL BY THE 00Z ECMWF. THUS...THE SPECIFIC
PREDICTIONS BY ALL DETERMINISTIC GUIDANCE ARE IN QUESTION...WITH
THE RECOMMENDATION TO FOLLOW CONTINUITY...WITH THE FINAL OUTCOME
MOST BELIEVED TO LIE BETWEEN THE 06Z GFS AND 00Z ECMWF...WITH ALL
ENSEMBLE GUIDANCE INCLUDING THE SREF MEAN/GEFS MEAN/ECMWF ENSEMBLE
MEAN ALSO CONSIDERED USEFUL TO ADDRESS THE CONTINUED UNCERTAINTY.
THIS APPROACH DISREGARDS THE SUBSTANTIALLY DEEPER AND WESTWARD
SHIFT OF THE 12Z GFS REGARDING THE POWERFUL LOW TRACKING UP THE
EASTERN SEABOARD...AND TO A LESSER EXTENT THE 12Z NAM WHICH LIES
NEAR THE FAST EDGE OF THE GUIDANCE WITH THE DEVELOPING LOW.

Questions, Comments, Suggestions / Re: Child Board Suggestion....
« on: December 23, 2010, 12:51:05 AM »Here's my opinion...Exactly my thinking.
A child-board DOES keep things more organized and grouped together (which I am all for).
However, like Martin said, and for this particular idea, a child-board for birthday threads will reduce the "meaning" of the birthday thread. When they are in the "General Discussion," I see them because I am probably looking for another topic. But if they are placed in a child-board, I don't know if I would look every day just to see if its someone's birthday. Having these threads grouped in the "General Discussion" makes for more meaning and surprise. I hope this makes sense...
It looks like we can keep child boards provided that they don't take up too much room. I think we should try to limit them to only a few special threads just like pinned threads around here. Feedback from the poll indicates that most members are okay with child boards.However the real question whether it is appropriate for this situation. With 6 votes for no change and 4 for "Good idea, but I'm not too sure" (whatever that means) I don't think we will make the change.
