Jon Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Since I was the only one doing PBP on the 18z I guess it's up to me to start a new thread when we get to 40 and keep the mojo going. +1 keep it goin' Storm will be on the 00z for sure, in the bank...

DaculaWeather Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Ok guys, i just wanted to take a moment to apologize to everyone. I should have known better than to drop a grand on a rocking weather station before winter. Doing this has undoubtedly screwed winter up for everyone and I just needed to say I am sorry.

Got to atleast add something interesting to this winter. Place your bets now! I bet it's on there, in some form or another. The massive ridge out west is the key I think and it looked like it showed up on a few ensembles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rduwx Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Well there is still something there around 264 and 276 so I would say I lose and those that said it would still be there win. Nothing near as nice as 18z but its something. Anybody for double or nothing on the 12z tomorrow? I won't be here for the 6z run so that's the reason I said 12z.

Gastonwxman Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Does this mean that I will only have to partially eat my hat since it sort of had it? My bet was based on it showing a similar look to the 18z. If it doesn't count, I'll go double or nothing for the 12z. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southern Track Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Was it February of 2002 that had the big winter storm on the East Coast? We had a major ice storm in the Carolinas. I believe it was around President's Day. The day before(Saturday) it was 67 degrees, and the local mets(Cessarich) said don't let this warm air fool ya, because a strong CAD effect was coming to meet approaching moisture from the Gulf. 24 hours later it was 40 degrees colder and the entire area was a glazed doughnut.

Solak Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Just came across this... Google now posting emergency alerts via Google Maps news.cnet.com Public safety alerts for floods, tornadoes, and other ongoing dangers around the world can now be found by searching or viewing Google Maps, which can pinpoint the location and details on the disaster.

tnweathernut Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I never thought I was the type to slow down and look at an accident, but after looking at trainwreck after trainwreck of model runs, maybe I was wrong about myself. haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCStateMMY Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 8 in. imby from that....any other year that would have been a great snow for me (still was really) but after watching all the footage of the piles of snow just to my west....I swear I've never been more disappointed of an 8 in storm in all my life! I here you. I am in the SE corner of Nash County that is listed between the 4-8 and 8-10 field. It was hard getting a good depth because the winds howled most of the storm at 30-40 mph. Had 3 to 4 foot snow drifts around the house and bulidings on the fram. I was able to pinpoint an average of 13.5". Being in high school at the time, I didn't know how to report it. KRWI was not that great at the time of reporting observations, so that I feel the map is a little underdone for Nash and Wilson counties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
