Special, special storm. Was a senior at NC State and taking “Intro to Weather and Climatology.” It was a M,W,F class. So, we got to watch the “winter hurricane” slowly evolve from a “chance” of snow to a dump fest. It was awesome watching the professor’s inner child blossom by Friday’s class. With spit building up in the corners of his dry mouth and disheveled hair, constantly manipulated by his fidgety hands, he was in awe of what could be and what was a once in lifetime triangle storm…I can still see the SLP epically develop right off the coast of southern SC, windup into an atmospheric bowling ball and to then stall off the SOBX, creating mesoscale snow banding right over Wake Co. And it.just.wouldn’t.stop!…We can always dream…
