40 and cloudy in Burke.
Expecting some flurries before mixing, then a little snow on the back end for a grand total of 1.25" of frozen that will mostly be slush or gone by Friday night.
That's when everyone bands together in the evening for a party to bury the dude's car back in.
Then you leave the beer cans in the (now yellow) snow around the car.
Agree with stormtracker that we like you, but sh*t is going down hard right now, so that was a grenade being rolled into the middle of locked room full of people.
Dude...who the F knows what's going to happen, especially more than a few days out?
You may not be trying to be a Deb, but you *are* being one, especially in a forum that's losing its collective sh*t right now.
I have no earthly idea which events or vorts or model suites anyone is talking about in here. "Next week" and "the event" and just mentioning a model gets completely jumbled up in my pea brain.
I say this pretty much every time, but I feel bad for my kids. They had SO MUCH FUN during the January 31 event, even if was pretty lame, but these kinds of rug pulls just completely suck for them.
I wouldn't either if the Euro hadn't consistently been losing precip on the northern edge over the last 24 hours...and hadn't lost a ton of its total juice at 12z today.
Went out to watch the kids play at lunchtime today. sun was out and it felt really nice. Still mostly sunny and 46 here in Burke. And we have no snowpack except for random spots.
I was just going to say this. We've had modeled cutters from 10 days out that have become harmless waves that end up flitting off the NC coast. And there's this week's storm, as you mentioned - modeled as a crippling ice storm that is washing out as we get closer.
No global model - no matter how good - is going to nail a medium-range threat (let alone a long-range one) this season. We should all have accepted that by now given the past as precedent.
I can appreciate when people are OK with a run-of-the-mill snowfall when the predominance of model runs leading up to it were a much more meaningful event.
Me? I don't hide disappointment well, though I can refrain from throwing my toys out of the pram.
