Forecasting: What We Do At Work

Each of us were arguing our points for the solution we prefer for Friday/Saturday. I mention this now because while we were all together I said viewers would probably appreciate the fact we have these.

Rachel Frank, Bob Cox and I were in Bob’s little radio booth a few minutes ago discussing the forecast. Each of us were arguing our points for the solution we prefer for Friday/Saturday. I mention this now because while we were all together I said viewers would probably appreciate the fact we have these.

I’m not sure you’d actually enjoy watching them because lots of what we talk about is arcane or clouded in jargon and difficult for outsiders to understand.

Bottom line there’s a little snow tonight and a little more Friday/Saturday. The consensus is tonight’s snow is light–a few inches tops. Finding a consensus for the next storm is a little more difficult. Two or three inches? Let’s get through tonight first.

  1. Thanks Geoff! But the real question is, will there be enough snow to delay schools tomrrow? I don’t like getting up at 6:30am to get my daughter at the bus stop for 6:45am. A 90 min delay would be delightful.

  2. We are getting a little wet out here- even by Oregon standards. A river runs through our campus. It’s usually a stream- it now looks navigable for small barges.

  3. Thanks Geoff! We’ve been lucky this year so far and I think this snow is pretty! I’m not a skier or anything; I just think it’s nice to have it a bit more wintery instead of so much in between.(I think we’ll all be fine!) (:

  4. From what I am seeing from FoxCT and other sources, tomorrow’s snow is just “blow it away” snow – the stuff Friday/Saturday is going to be more liquid. But Geoff and the team will make their best forecast!
