jburns Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Good job Sir. I work with 17 schools, 30+ principals and many many teachers. Most have developed this fear that they have to playcake with students and their parents. Because they do not want anyone to get upset and get pissed off at the school. Well, I am not of this thought. You must draw the line (backed by policy of course) and have both school and home tow that line. Are you filling in or are you planning to continue teaching for the remainder of the year? I was just filling in. I have no desire to return full time at all. I agree that many teachers and principals are afraid to take a stand. Some systems are worse than others. Somewhere along the way we have become afraid to draw the line where it needs to be and have pulled it back further and further. It's the job of the school to draw the behavior line. It's the job of the student to test the limits of that line wherever it is drawn. It has always been that way. One of the reasons so many say that students today are so much less disciplined than those of earlier years is that we, as the group in charge, have moved the damn line. Students today do exactly what students have always done. They test the limits the adults put on them. Remind me to one day tell you my NAACP story. It's a classic.

packbacker Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Terrible 850 track: It would be funny if we miss an epic winter storm by 50 miles, LOL. There was some good news on the GFS, the blocking is holding and the 50/50 low is holding strong, in fact when looking at the blocking and the 50/50 I thought this would be further SE, which obviously is good and bad.

EmersonGA Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Long range GFS says hello spring. Fine with me. I've now had measurable snow and I'll be planting my tomato seeds later today. Let's put this horrible winter out of it's misery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeatherNC Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Pending some wild swing north or south , I am likely heading to VA either Tuesday night or early Wednesday morning, and coming back late Thursday. Open invitation to anyone around the triangle, or in NC for that matter who wants to tag along. I know that it being during the week makes it difficult to take off, but if you can and are interested hit me up. No crazies, I will cover the gas and lodge (if you want your own room thats on you), you would be responsible for your food. Have not chased since DC back in Feb 2010 (wow, it has been that long!), snowmageddon, and got the greenlight from work to take a couple pto's and go after this one should the opportunity present itself.

buckeyefan1 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Really to early to focus on little track wobbles, plus it is March after all and just the fact we are talking chances of a snow and a big one at that is pretty awesome. As for what JB and DT say, of course they are saying this is going to trend north, or be a big NOVA storm and every time it runs further south they will throw out that run lol. The blocking looks good, the energy is coming in a bit further west, digging a bit further SW etc, baby steps folks baby steps. Does anyone actually think its going to track and do exactly like it is modeled right now? It will take the models several runs to catch up to these little changes it always always does. If the Sunday night runs still show it that far north then NC can start looking to throw in the towel until then its still wide open. I feel sorry for the mods and what they will have to deal with the next few days...... Thank you Hopefully everyone will behave themselves and keep the crap in here, before warnings/timeouts are given Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rant over... Have not been over that maps yet but my guess would likely be the evolution of the ULL and how it matures while heading east, maybe not as much neg tilt compared to a day or two ago. That is going to be very difficult to nail down until were inside 48 and likely will be better resolved by the high res regionals once all the players are in the box.
