Must suck to live there and deal with not only a metric crap ton of snow but also temps that fairly often get to -20 to -30+ below zero without the wind chill... I used to drive around Lake Ontario to and from college at St Lawrence U… Watertown, and those towns… just crazy, stupid snow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wacka Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 (edited) When McDaniel sees some of the throws of snowballs at him from the stands, he'll bench Tua and sign the fan from the stands.😀 Edited December 16, 2022 by Wacka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beck Water Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 4 hours ago, Amaru523 said: What are the odds that, after the beatdown his team receives, he blames it on the weather? First Things First - let's focus on delivering said Beatdown first before hypothesizing the reaction. Chris Simms/Mike Florio - Florio is "buffaloed" by the fan chatter about depriving the Dolphins of sideline heaters. Simms carefully packed up a large crate of Bulletin Board Material, labeled it "Tungavailoa, Tua, for the Use Of" and shipped it FedEx Overnight to Miami. TL;DW basically said that when Tua has had to play in bad weather, he's not just been off, he's been awful. Kurt Warner echoes the concerns about Tua needing to prove he can play in bad weather but in a more measured, positive way. He also echoes the concerns Greg Cosell, Dan Orlovsky and others have raised about our WR corps: how good is it, after Diggs? Can the #2 and #3 guys make the tough catches, because last week, they couldn't. Says in the red zone, Josh is going off script and pressing trying to create and that's causing problems.

IMO a snow storm will only add to the number of eye balls watching the game. This weather forecast propels an already big game into the stratosphere by injecting a uniquely interesting twist.

Franco_92 Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 I just hope the game represents football. If the elements impact the game, but the game still looks like nfl football, the bills have the advantage. If it's like the colts game, the game is no longer football, it is a dice roll.

Utah John Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 7 hours ago, TheWeatherMan said: Forecasting the exact placement of a LE snow band days in advance is why the general public loses confidence in meteorologists ability to accurately forecast. Stating that there’s a good probability for a LE event based on 925mb-850mb wind flow and the size of the fetch across Lake Eerie is one thing. Attempting to claim that any numerical model or you as a forecaster massaging that model have any clue as to where that LE band will sit / meander for a given period of time and to the point they’re willing to assign accumulation ranges for point locations is beyond insane. I would equally place as much confidence into the Farmers Almanac this far out. There’s a reason why LE snowfall band placement and snowfall accumulation is one of the hardest phenomenon to predict, a subtle 1 degree change in wind direction can determine if you get 3 feet or 1 inch of snow. I’m not trying to shoot the messenger, but this appears as a desperate attempt by the BUF NWS office to maintain relevancy. As a retired professional meteorologist, I have to agree with every word in this post, except the last part about the NWS office. The NWS has to put out a forecast and give it their best shot. What are they supposed to do, just shrug and say, we don't have any idea? Probably the best thing would be to say that there will be localized heavy snow, with a decent chance that Rich Stadium (honestly I can't remember its current name) will be hit. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
