Brick Tamland Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 0z NAM is definitely wetter for northern NC and a bit drier further south. NE NC gets hammered with IP or ZR, presumably. Oh snap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Rain Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Looking good for Cold Rain so far. WxNerd FTW! Congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalicwx366 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Oh snap!Just get ready for a crippling ice storm. Expect .50 at least in the form of freezing rain accompanied with an inch or two of sleet. Snow may be relatively hard to come by with this storm unless you are further North. Get ready for 90 car pile ups and power outages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NGaWxNerd Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 There's got to be a way to advertise this forum on Pinterest.... Can't you pin just about anything? But then again do we want to let just anybody peek into our little world? I never tell anyone where i learn so much about the weather when they ask, I keep this all to myself.

superjames1992 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Oh snap! The Wilson area looks to get 0.50"+ of QPF from the 0z NAM. RDU itself is a bit less, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magpiemaniac Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Guilford should be one of the first to react but they never are. Still no word from Guilford County Schools. Knowing them, it requires a quorum of their Inclement Weather Policy Committee to vote by a two-thirds majority to close early. The vote will then need to be forwarded to the Parental Notification of Inclement Weather Policy Committee to decide the timing and manner of parental notification.

Cold Rain Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Where is Brick?? The roads might get bad tomorrow. People are underplaying this. You can't trust the models. It would be better to be warm than cold and dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never tell anyone where i learn so much about the weather when they ask, I keep this all to myself. Yeah, but I never "pin" my own stuff. I just repin everyone elses ideas. And I agree with you about this being our own little world. At work last week I threw out some terms I saw here and my co-workers now think I'm weather smart and know what I'm talking about. lol!

Brick Tamland Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Well, the models have been wishy washy about this whole thing. First it had better precip, then not so much, and now it has more precip again. We'll see what happens tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magpiemaniac Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I'm supposed to drive from Greensboro to Creedmoor tomorrow evening around 6:00 for the camping trip. As Brick would say, the roads might be bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magpiemaniac Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Well... good luck with that. Be safe. Not the best weekend for a camping trip! Thanks. You're right. It's not, but it was prescheduled and some of those scout dads try to act macho when it comes to adverse conditions. Pointless if you ask me. I'll wait and see what it's like tomorrow. If the roads are decent Saturday morning, heading up there then might be an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QC_Halo Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I hope CLT gets "screwed" on tis one. I hope Brick gets his high impact event. I know Burger likes winter events as much or more than anyone on here, but at least he has the common sense to not want an ice storm. I will say they are beautiful to look at, but after 3 days of no power they get a bit old. Hell, at my age, I don't want any time without power.

NCWX Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 My kids had Monday -Wednesday off this week now a 3 hour early release tomorrow..... All for nothing I bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QC_Halo Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I was in MS for this one...luckily just south of the war zone. And that's what it looked like. I saw the aftermath. People were without power for a long long time. Not days, but weeks. Of course this was an extreme example, but I remember lighter storms as a kid that still sucked. No power, wasn't really fun to play in, etc.... http://www.nwas.org/digest/papers/1996/Vol20No3/Pg15-Pfost.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
