The Skies Above New York Right Now, After Blizzard Of 2015 Downgraded To Junk
Yesterday, New Yorkers were preparing for the Snow Tempest of the Century expected to dump as much as 20 inches of snow in the city, with Snowmageddon 2.0 fears promptly used by Whole Foods stores across Manhattan to clear out all stale inventory. Instead, what New Yorkers got was the proverbial "teapot" with the Blizzard warning ended moments ago after a far less dramatic snowfall took place (or as S&P would downgrade it, straight to Junk if it wasn't afraid of the resultant lawsuits) and according to the latest update from the National Weather Service, total snowfall accumulation at Central Park as of 5:59 am was a paltry 6.3 inches - which in retrospect will make some question mayor de Blasio's repeated "emergency" warnings.
That said, while the #Blizarrdof2015 may have been a dud, it is the skies above New York, some 10,000 feet and above, that is where the real action lies. Or rather doesn't. As this real time snapshot of airplane traffic over New York, not a plan is to be found.
Meanwhile, this is what all the drama was about:

NYC Mayor: ‘Reconcile Yourselves With Your God, For All Will Perish In The Tempest’
NEWS IN BRIEF • Weather • News • ISSUE 51•04 • Jan 26, 2015
http://www.theonion.com/articles/nyc-mayor-reconcile-yourselves-with-you...
Whiney-assed, self-entitled, the universe revolves around New York City/Manhattan, could not change a light bulb if life depended on it, protect us from snow flakes bigGov.org, we are fucking useless cunts NYC Edition.
not a plan is to be found
Zee plan.....zee plan!!!
Well.......shitgum!
double nail gun tap.
Remember the 9-11.
National Weather Service askes Congress for an additional 5 billion dollars a year in funding to help rebuild their failing infrastructure and again be able to provide world-class weather forecasting.
You laugh, but I bet that's how this goes down.
These dipshits think they can accurately model world climate, but they miss on an "epic snow storm" 2 days out. I'm laughin'.
"We BS'd some folks"
LoL !
Maybe they just needed some time to plant the nano thermite they will blame on the Russians.
my wife's girlfriend stated: "This snowstorm is just like my ex-boyfriend. Promised 8-12 inches but only received 3-6."
Great Blizzard Of 1888 Changes New York City
The pics tell the story.
Family lore says that blizzard was the reason my grandfather was conceived. (Nudge nudge, know what I mean...) So no blizzard = no Bollixed.
Ignatius- even Joe Kernen, Mr. MSM party-line boot-licker, made that observation this morning.
Eventually they will "prove" man-caused climate change is correct by rounding up and shooting all us deniers. Just to be safe, they'll also shoot anyone who answers "not sure".
"Eventually they will "prove" man-caused climate change is correct by rounding up and shooting all us deniers."
Like you, in that eventuality, I'll be shooting back...
"Flyover" state taxpayers must provide 666 billion USD in Emergency Snowpocalypse Funding to Chuck "Tel Aviv Dual Citizen" Schumer's District within 5 business days - or else.
Schumer is attaching an amendment for this to Obama's newest round of Free & Fair Slave Trade Agreements with even poorer nations than the last go 'round when Clinton & Shrub were in office so that the remaining 18% of Americans qualifying as "middle class" can be wiped out.
Here's Schumer's puppet, Obama, looking out for the middle class and working class. He's a real hero of Middle Class Americans (what are left of them):

That lone plane is probably another house of saud or bin laden family escape plane.. How do you get sequels, prequels, and future episodes if shit gets cleaned up?
2015 the great blizzard of bullshit
Thanks for starting my day out with a good laugh.
But, but, but.....it's global warming!!!
WWWHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! GLOBAL WARMING!!!!!!
WWWWHHHHHHAAAA! STOP THE SNOW NOW!!!!!! WWWWHHHHHHHAAAAAAAA!
It don't work like that knuckler, hows about you stop glacier melt.
evidence?
clearly it looks like the haarp snow machine broke down. Maybe the pentagon can call the local ski hills and rent or borrow theirs for some propaganda shoots and just make up a city name. By the time anyone catches on everyone will have forgotten anyways.
Long Live The Muppets!
And apparently the Gov(s) can't get out
of bed early enough to revise their plan.
For once I hope the lawyers get busy.
There is some plausibility Suffold co. and east.
Worked just as planned. Able to control millions. Conditioning people that it is for their safety and not a peep about mandating people off the streets. Willfully giving up their freedom.
Just government letting the people know why they need them.
pods
The great no-storm of 2015
But the weathermen all got their face time in front of the cameras...that is why the big panic storm...to become a little famous....and the politicians like to look like they are take charge men.....all in front of the cameras.....we are men men men men men men men....
Fu*k N York and the taxi drivers.
Frezzeeeee. bitchezs
Philly..
Sunday night the prediction was 14-24. This morning we have less than 1/2 inch.
Government forecasting models
Clearly showing the need for increased taxation to pay for betterer computer models!!!
No doubt we have failed at controlling and containing our weather. Climate change run amok. If we can't believe the weatherman, WHO can we believe?
Also in the Philly area (west of)... a heavy dusting maybe. I'm not even going to have to shovel. National Weather service head apologizes for us NOT getting whomped with snow- at 3 in the morning:
http://www.cnbc.com/id/102371281
We canceled my kids Cub Scout meeting last night because of this bullshit. We were going to visit the local fire house (and yes, I still love climbing around on fire trucks as much as the kids do).
What will Wolf Blitzer (former AIPAC Lobbyist), that vaunted tower of objective, MSM, hard-hitting, impeccable, journalistic integrity do in his Situation Room on CNN, if there's not at least the 30" of snow in Manhattan?
Massachusetts got it all.....
You probably wouldn't love those fire-trucks so much if you really knew how much the solid-gold pensions for the guys that sit in them are costing you.
My FIL was a Retired LA City Capt. Task Force Com. and he lived like an Ottoman Pasha.
I'm not saying the job isn't dangerous or isn't a valuable service but his take would be worth over 120K in current dollars. For life.
Must be the same guy who calculates US GDP
False flag blizzard conducted by Mossad, probably with help from the CIA, who operates HAARP to brainwash the clouds into dropping less snow than the conspirators told the MSM. One of the Weather Channel meteorologists was found with a nail in his head and a nailgun in his hand. Then, somebody ran by and tried to shoot him with an AK-47 but missed. How do you miss? Coincidence? OK, right. You just keep believing the zio-news buddy.
Priceless!
lol
What?
He isn't serious?
The Zio News would never do anything like that!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dda-0Q_XUhk
We dudded some folks.
Bullish!
That’s how martial law will look.
Be careful......you might be found suidiced after 4 weeks.
Shelter in place?
Well just damn.
Just when DeBlazio was all set to show the world the unbridled power of government workers driving their snow plows while singing patriotic songs.
Ooh, Ooh, I know one...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLB8e62BulU
HAARP had a wardrobe malfunction?
NYC deserves this overcautious crap for whining SO loud last time
If Manhattan & 1/2 of California broke off and sunk to the bottom of the ocean - a good day.
You should come visit sometime. Tons of great food and a good place to get a jam.
Do I see a made for TV docudrama coming up?
A great opportunity to show the wicked efficiency of comrades unified behind a cause to serve "the people", shared sacrifice and all that crap.
A crisis is too important to waste.
Well CNN just explained it. The NWS just spent millions of dollars on a new weather model. The "new" model predicted as little as 10" of snow throughout the area. But the old models were predicting snowmaggedan.
The new model worked!
" so now we know we can throw the old models out, and use the new model!"
Money well spent.
I wonder if the old models are used to predict global war....eh...climate change? Just wondering.
We could probably off-load the old models on East Anglia College of Climatology and Cosmetology.
Snow off the lows
Someone better make sure that lone yellow plane isn't headed for the new World Trade Center!
Shelter in place comrades.
Clearly a planned distraction from the whole deflated footballs thing.
Nascar fans ( guilty) understand this has little more to do than pressure and temperature are correlated.
Now, I have no doubt NE has a treatise on this, and how to benignly pull it off. Heated air. Maybe even another gas. Game balls just happen to be stored under or on top of a " malfunctioning" heater. Etc. lots of fun ways to pull this off. And go " wha me? Huh? Don know what your talking about"
Nascar hired the biggest known " cheater" and made him the chief inspector. He he! Pays him big bucks.
Maybe the NFL should hire ....a fuck it..who cares?
The day after Sandy hit, I loaded 2 generators and enough fuel for a week, grabbed a buddy to ride shotgun ( literally ) and headed to New Jersey/ New York from Maryland.
These were "excess" stock to me, and yes, I was looking to make a nice profit. Who understands a profit better than the wealthy living on the coasts of New Jersey / New York?
There was NO power and No fuel to be had. I brought it in. What I wanted in cash, amounted to walking around money for these ...eh..folks, yeah folks!
I offered a free hookup, included. This was a 10 k surplus military set. One house, in a neighborhood , could have serviced the whole block with refrigeration, lights, cell phone charging, etc.
There was need. There was WANT. But every single individual or business I approached wanted to wait for uncle GOV to come to the rescue for free. Or was too nervous to help themselves, and trust me.
I ended up bringing that gear home, and learned a lesson. Actually left that wasteland ( they were pretty well fucked, that time) with gear that could help.
I will never do any such thing again.
A profiteering cunt didn't get to rape some people in need. What a shame!
More like " freeze and starve in the dark, you stupid ignorant unprepared motherfuckers "
I take no offense to you comment 7 gram.
It's so typical.
Not meant to be offensive. But you entered a disaster zone offering to "help" people by selling them a busted old generator for an insane amount and some overpriced gasoline. Maybe these people were just trying to say fuck off without actually saying fuck off. I know it would surprise you real men, but we are not all useless invalids who shuffle paper in suits. The air of superiority is insufferable!
Military surplus genset. $28,000.00 purchase by Uncle Sam in the 90's. Completely overhauled at Letterkenny. On a trailer. Diesel. I wanted $4,000. That included bringing it to the area.
That's how the real world works. Yo pray for " help " and miracle, here comes a guy with what you NEED.
He wants cash. That's what HE needs.
We are talking about waterfront residents in New Jersey. Not exactly destitute.
What was the "value" of a seat on a lifeboat to a Titanic passenger? Would not John Astor gladly give his entire fortune for a seat, to live another day with his beautiful young bride?
The situation applies the value. The individual responds, or not.
It's simply two ways to look at it. I think my way makes more sense.
My way, supplies reach the place they are needed the most. Your way, long lines and no supplies.
Supply and demand. Econ 101
Are you in business?
We are in agreement with the beachfront owners. Those houses should not exist and wouldn't be built without government backed hurricane insurance. More rich welfare queens! I am just sensitive to the idea that anyone who lives near a large city on the east coast is a useless turd who doesn't know if you turn a wrench or insert it into your anus.
In certain regions folks pick themselves up after something happens and get to work. Most rurul areas folks are not afraid to start picking up the pieces and will also help a neighbor in need. Pretty much any burb or other priveleged region? Not so much, mostly inhabited with mooches who would not know how to run a portable genset if all it involved was pushing the start button(in many cases it can be that simple if wired that way) and too stoo stoo stoopid for common sense things like running them once every other week to keep things fresh.
This past summer was a very wet one with some major flooding and damage to a smaller town an hour from here. The only extra help was some national guard troops sent in, and they for the most part stood around directing traffic. The town folks and folks from other small towns came to help, and they still managed to kick off a major event that our state has each year. Even with all that damage, they were able to host thousands of people. It would have been a helluva lot easier to just throw in the towel and have the starting point moved to another spot just down the road, but they kicked it off and in grand fashion.
Of course this is exactly what .bro wants.....for folks to be that dependant that they will cower in fear and just sit, waiting to grab a hind teat to make it all better again.
Shelter in place, shelter in place damnit! It's for your own good because "we" say so. If you must sneeze do so into your sleave!
So how many millions did this fucking "disaster" cost?
What a sick joke this type of crap has become.
All New York got was a snow job.
What is not being so widely reported was the pre-emptive travel ""ban"". Which by the way is still effect in New Jersey, for no reason whatsoever.... I am sitting at home in PA waiting for the ban to lift so I can drive through the 0.5" of unplowed snow to get to work.... I get an interstate highway travel ban when necessary. this is the first time I have ever seen a COMPLETE travel ban.... Facism at its finest.
I hate it when what promises to be a huge dump disappoints me.
I just had one. So now no reason for disappointment.
Take a few Exlax before you go to bed..you will not be dissapointed...
Snow storm or snow job? You decide.
was up bro?
OTAY!
Who dat say who dat when I say who dat?
Overhyped forecast to induce panic buying for this qtr.
It is apparent to me that weather people, economists and market timers have much in common.
"The only function of economic forecasting is to make astrology look respectable."---John Kenneth Galbraith
Hey here's a thought, just for shits and giggles.
What if this whole snowblizzard thing was just a ploy to empty the airport to have "unmarked aircrafts"loaded up with whatever passes for gold at 33 Liberty street? Did anyone notice any massive movements of armoured vehicles in Manhatan last night?
Just throwing it out there, out of curiosity. Watch for interesting news regarding gold movement in the next few weeks...
No armoured vehicles seen but the garbage trucks double as snow plow vehicles and can hold a lot.
Not sure they would need to go to all this trouble to move a little barbaric relic.
It was coming but the CLIMATE CHANGED
So the weather did not cooperate to provide the excuse for such dismal First Quarter Numbers.
Hmmm...Better luck next time?
I can just hear it now...
It..it...it was the blizzard that did not happen. People frontrun that blizzard and stopped spending as if there had been a real blizzard. That is why our sales our down. They stayed hunkered down when there was no need.
I'm looking out my window now. Roads look fine. No white out conditions. No 2-3 inches/hour. I can't believe I cancelled work for this. This is going to cost me a ton of digital fiat. I wonder what those .gov bastards are up to. We're focusing on the right hand but what is the left hand doing.
They need excuses for shitty sales.
We're focusing on the right hand but what is the left hand doing.(?)
fisting you
Simple: DeBlasio wanted to exercise his god complex and make driving after 11 pm illegal. Lived up there in Manhattan for 2 years...and I don't miss it. Cept the Jewish bagel shops.
News on JUNO: Curfew!
The blizzard dumped just a quarter of what meteorologists predicted, but that was still enough to bring New York City to a standstill.

Chad Myers the CNN weather guru! Chad, is that rain pouring down or is that Erin Burnett giving you a golden shower? That piece of shit couldn't predict a sunrise... I'd like to kick him in the nuts so hard, one ball goes out his left ear, the other exits via the right ear... What a crock of shit.....
Didn't you hear??? the all powerful DeBlasio signed an executive order banning big blizzards :)
I had a NOAA fuck confess to me at a, contrary to prediction, rained out SC balloon rally that they had no windows in their building...
What does that tell you? Tells me you better ask someone that makes their livelihood outdoors.
If we fired 2/3 of these six-figure NOAA fucks, would anyone notice a difference?
Still higher rating than the Russians :)

MASSAPEQUA 14.2 427 AM 1/27 PUBLIC
I just had a vision of Hillary going outside to yell at the NYC sanitation worker sent over to shovel her out, but he was gone for his contractual 2 hour coffee break, and she slips and falls, knocking herself out. Meanwhile, the local townie snowplow driver, figuring to score some points, decides to plow out the former Sec. State and Presidents driveway and plows the unconscious woman into a snowbank.
Now a APB is issued for the missing Hillary and the FBI, having no leads, determine that it might be a terrorist kidnapping and alert Homeland Security who promptly put the CIA on the case, who also have no leads but not wishing to look dumbfounded, alert the Pentagon that their intelligence indicates that loyalists to the Syrian leader Assad are responsible for the missing former Sec. State.
CENTCOM is alerted and the fighter-bombers tasked to eliminate IS are now bombing deeper into Syria into Assad held territory, which draws an immediate response from Russia, who issue a no-fly zone edict over Syria.
The world is poised for a nuclear superpower confrontation over Syria when the former Sec. States body is found by reports of a pack of feral dogs feeding on something in a snowbank.
Maybe I should switch to decaf.
Pffft, the blizzard that never was.
So much for GDP growth.
They totally blew a next-day forecast but their multi-decade predictions are "settled science."
High frequency weather forecasting.
