Brick Tamland Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 The only hope we have is the models are totally missing things like they did back in January 2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bevo Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 The only hope we have is the models are totally missing things like they did back in January 2000. The thing is...I believe the models are/have been missing it due to the PAC all season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Tamland Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 If you look at the axis center point on the January 2000 map I posted and look at the latest NAM above it. The latest NAM is centered over about Waynesville, but Jan 2000 was centered over about Chattanooga. So this is the distance and sorta benchmark the triad needs to get back to. This kind of talk makes me sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaffneyPeach Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I tell Y'all what...if this winter was a tick I'd smush it with tweezers, run over it with the truck, stick a straight pin in it, douse it with rubbin' alcohol, spray it with Aqua Net and strike a match to it. Then I'd bury it under a rose bush, make myself a sweet tea, sit on the front porch and call us even! About one more 40-ish/rain and I'ma flip out!**Southern Hissy Fit Over** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

audioguy3107 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Well, if winter weather is not gonna cooperate, we can at least look forward to the first high risk of the year out of SPC. I'll go with.....say....March 29 in the lower Mississippi valley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncwinterwxman Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Did I ever mention how much I HATED this winter? I mean...it is bad enough to get screwed over on a marginal ULL event back on the 17th but then you pour salt on an old wound by sending 3 feet of snow up to New England of all places? LOL...WOW /endrant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superjames1992 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I can't wait until our perfect track Miller A with copious precip comes along with a 1040 mb HP pumping in cold air from Canada to produce the perfect winter storm ... but it's mid-April and all you get is 3" of rain with a temperature of 38 degrees. Thanks for playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjames1992 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Just like 3/1/09 saved the winter of 2008-2009 for a lot of us (except those who got jackpotted from the Inauguration Snowstorm over near Raleigh), the great storm of February 26th-27th, 2013 shall save the winter of 2012-2013.

Prepare for an epic end to winter! hope your right if the cold air is around, of which always seems to be what is missing. last couple of storms we've had plenty of rain. had those storms been snow wnc would have had about 5 feet of snow with both of those rain makers.

NGaWxNerd Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Perhaps I should have given up wishing for snow for Lent instead of beer. This is just too much for my snow starved heart to take and I can only echo Peaches Southern Hissy Fit and add some whining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Tamland Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 In all seriousness, it does seem next weekend and a couple weeks out are more of a threat than this weekend. Of course, it could all go to waste, but it could just as easily give us a monster snow. When it comes to winter around here, all bets are off.

dsaur Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 The drought thing is overdone every year. It's the same old thing, as if it will never rain again. Wow!

NGaWxNerd Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I once saw a blizzard in March, in Georgia T I know, but I think that was a once in a lifetime party...I mean weather event. I have little faith in winter weather for MBY past V-Day and if we get anything it's usually ice. Bumming big time....AGAIN and can't drown my sorrows in a bottle of suds, double bummer. Guess I'll set my sights to what to plant in the next few weeks, I got a new flower catalog today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsaur Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Don't plant until the old dead leaves drop of the little oaks that are still holding them. There are blooms out and buds everywhere, and they won't come back until May probably. Hubris like that always finds the swatter. This is just screaming for a late freeze to squash them all. The last cold day is often Sat. at the Masters, lol. I don't fall for this two wall to wall summer like winters in a row..we are being suckered in, lol.

T I'm trying not to be suckered in by the fantasy storms that keep teasing me on the GFS!!! I know we will still have some hard Freeze(s) at some point, but I have blueberry blossoms already. Now they are only showing here and there like pimples on a teenager, but I think we might be cooked for this winter. Poke me with a fork I am medium to medium well at this point.

NGaWxNerd Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Did you forget all about 3/1/09? Now that you mention it I remember being quite ruffled by the kid traffic through the front door. Wet, soppy, hungry flow of children tracking slush through the house.I think there was a Gunsmoke Marathon on the DVD and a mean game of Monopoly. The meaning of the word "Party" certainly changes from '93 to 2009. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
