SUPERSTORM coming, hype or reality



Everybody is buzzing about the winter storm coming around Monday next week. Some people are even comparing this possible storm to the Superstorm of 93. In case anybody don't know it. The above graphic demostrated what that storm dd. This system dumped more than 3 feet of snow to some selected places in its path. Is this a hype? or reality. Lets put things into perspective.

This system will take a similar track as the superstorm 93 did. Starting off in the gulf and traveling due north across the interior east coast. The low is forecasted to be 970mb by many models(comparing to 1000mb from this storm that effected us just before). This would mean the area getting effected will receive really heavy precip and super strong wind. Blizzard warnings are almost certain with a low this strong.

However. Will this happen? First of all. The track of this system is still iffy. If this thing takes a further west track. Areas around southwestern Ontario will get effected while southeastern Ontario will receive a messy mix or even a severe ice storm. If the track goes further east. Only eastern Ontario will be effect or even completely missing the whole Southern ontario region. Second of all, will the storm be actually this strong? We are have seen storms being forecasted by models turning into busts. We are already within 5 days and most of the models are agreeing with a strong system. The chance of this storm being as advertised is quite high. Although I think it may be a little weaker than originally anticipated(Or even stronger, like superstorm 93).

I am still in the wait and see time frame. We are still 5 days away and anything could happen. If indeed this storm will be the blend of all forecast models. This "superstorm" will be remembered for years to come. I will definately have more details tommorow and probably coming to my early predictions on how exactly this will shape up.

I am just curious, what country were you born and raised in?

English is not your first language, judging by your illogical grammar. It's consistently appalling!!! Not that it has that much to do with your forecsating...which always seems to be on the high side, but no one seems to notice.

It is really bad grammar for someone of your age (15) and I urge you to try and fix it.
Again I understand if English is not your first language but come on, this is North America!!!

After re-reading this article, I got what is disturbing. It is rather my typo, not grammatical mistakes that may be a problem.

I usually write these articles out without double checking because of time restraints, I guess I'll have to be more careful on that front.

Hey Just a Guy...

Now tell me, what the hell is "forecsating"?

That is all.
