dsaur Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Ok, I feel better now. When is the next threat? Next weekend? Also, can someone please explain to me why they turn the rules off in the last 5 seconds of college basketball? I tried to post that earlier, but my BB failed me again. Why don't the Pros have to dribble. It ain't basketball it you just run around, but don't dribble. Oh, and GTech has some freshmen who had the light come on. You folks better watch out come tourney time. I expect they'll win a game or two, and be playing for the lead in the conference before too many years.

metalicwx366 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 The MJO can go pound sand. And so can the strat warming. And the weakening negative -QBO crap. And the -AO garbage. And the El Nino that never showed up. And the -SOI explosion. And the CFSv2 with their constant tundra cold. It's just not ever going to get cold and stormy for any sustained period in the SE again. Ever. Never ever ever never ever ever never. Anything other prediction will bust. Count on it. You are more of a bitchercaster than I was. lmao jk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I think we can also put the argument to rest that we don't need a favorable pacific, December proved that. We had a favorable pacific in mid-January and got a couple minor events atleast. We didn't get the -NAO and an active STJ together, in fact the NAO was essentially neutral/positive since mid-Dec. All in all a bad winter setup.

WilkesboroDude Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Think for a minute. In every winter event in the SE someone is on the "borderline". The elevation change on Wilkes County gives you a wider variety of weather in each storm than Piedmont counties but is consistant with other foothill counties. Nothing has been consistent with other foothills counties this winter, Frosty can probably verify that. Last snow event other foothill counties got snow shadowed over while southern Wilkes (Brushy Mountains) hit warning criteria and 1-3 spilled north and hit me. I think the position of being in the northern foothills also helps compared to places like Asheville in recent situations too. I never said Wilkes was Canada or anything. Just saying it has its advantages at times. Plenty of other better spots in WNC. There is also the increased advantage of summer storms here. Sometimes rotation wants to try to get going on a side of a mountain, and other weird stuff. Can also get a wall of wind driven mist during the summer when storms fizzle off the mountain before really drying up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsaur Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I hope Tony doesn't see this! If you were in Atlanta in Feb. 1979 or Jan. 1988 (you may be too young, regardless), I don't think you'd think this way. These were two of the most awesome storms I've had the privilege to witness! Accumulations of 3-4" of IP!! And thus the query from Professor Hendricks.."Have you ever been experienced? Well, I have." Easy to get snow...get a storm like those..ambrosia. It's like going to hear Scratchy McGiggles singing on Thunderbird down under the bridge, and wondering if Joplin was so really so hot, way back before you were born T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I need some storm chasing advice. What is the easiest and cheapest way to run a laptop w/ wifi in my vehicle? How much for a dash camera? Best advice is to get some experience and knowledge before chasing yourself. Check out this book http://www.weathergraphics.com/chasing/ do you know a lot about grlevel software and types of tornadoes, paths, what to look for, how storms develop and evolve and die? How to read dual pol? Reliable car? Etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How to read dual pol? Reliable car? Etc I think I can get by with radar on wunderground for my purposes. I will probably only chase Surry, Wilkes, and Yadkin. Most likely more hail storms then tornadoes. There is some neat looking night vision dash cams on eBay within my price range. Looking to spend...500-1000 maybe? If wifi is too much I know several nearby hot spots (IGA, McDonalds, etc.) lol. I just want to capture some footage mostly I know the way the clouds move/direction around here.

dsaur Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I think this this weeks festivities will leave weakness across Fla. and we'll get a low on it this weekend. I feel it in my bones! I rotated a few tires today...so it could be that...but I think it's a storm. ....but will it be cold? The 925's and 850's are under 0 on Meteostar, but that's a long way off. I may have to call a Mole Conclave by Wed. if I'm right....and go to Thrum Con 3. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
