burgertime Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 32.2 here and rain....very close to ZR, this would have been terrible if it was all ZR. Got a meeting with some important poker people today so I'm sort of glad there it did not get icy today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lookout Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 This is not the southeast but I have an employee that lives north of DFW in Texas and south of Denton and he has already received 5" from this deal and a heavy band is moving thru. To be exact he lives in Argyle, TX. Gfs has done a horrible job with precip over tx and with the precip in general with the upper low. It's done much better with the rain here. On the flip side, the nam did better with the upper low but has been horrible with the rain over the southeast. Pretty funny actually . Btw, not sure if anyone mentioned this but the cold over mexico this morning has been absolutely amazing. Below ZERO temps in northern mexico this morning, with subfreezing 850s last night almost as far south as the southern tip of baha. Even though there are higher elevations there that is still Unbelievable cold there. Meanwhile, it doesn't get much worse here. Been 32.5 to 33 most of the night with the rain. Been a pocket of colder surface air that moved in from the southern upstate to around here that pushed temps closed to freezing. In fact, lexington..south of here, reported 32 for a while. Currently 33.1. Yummy. . Radar estimates have been a bit on the high side, about 0.55 here despite radar showing close to an inch. Must still be some elevated sleet pockets or melting snow a few thousand feet up because those oranges and reds aren't as heavy as advertised. Here was the temps at 12z this morning. For mexico, amazing stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmersonGA Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Dallas can kiss another Superbowl good bye if Atlanta is any precedent. We got labeled a "cold weather city" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmersonGA Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 'Ya think? I believe a Super Bowl is being played in Indianapolis next season and in NYC in 2014. Two "cold weather" cities. Arthur Blank tried to get a superbowl in Atlanta about five years ago. He was no since they were steering away from cold weather cities. It was all over sports talk radio in Atlanta at the time. Since then they awarded it to the other cities. I guess having a new stadium nullifies the weather issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go to work which is about 5 miles from my house. drive up a ridge and at the very top there is ice in trees and bushes but just rain everywhere else. its about 200-300 ft elevation change. pretty fascinating to see.

Solak Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I see RAH is stealing away our rain totals again <snip> THERE WILL BE A CONSIDERABLE REDUCTION IN QPF INLAND WITH THE BULK OF THE WAA...ESSENTIALLY THE MAIN FORCING MECHANISM... REMAINING ALONG THE NORTH CAROLINA COAST. THERE WILL THEN BE A NOTICEABLE DROP OFF/LULL IN PRECIP AFTER 06Z...AS THE 850 WAVE MOVES OFF THE NORTH CAROLINA COAST WITH MID/UPPER LEVEL DRYING SPREADING IN FROM THE WEST... WITH PRECIP BECOMING CHARACTERIZED AS DRIZZLE. WHILE CATEGORICAL POPS WILL STILL BE IN ORDER...WILL REDUCE QPF AMOUNTS OVERNIGHT... ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE WESTERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA...CUTTING AMOUNTS BY NEARLY HALF. RAINFALL TOTALS OF A QUARTER IN THE NORTHWEST...AROUND A HALF INCH ACROSS CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA TO AROUND AN INCH IN THE EAST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
