calculus1 Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Man, I'm sorry Brick. You can sit next to me on the couch and watch the rest of the tournament. I have popcorn. Should we pull for Miami? And why is there an L in the word SHOULD? I'd rejoice more in UNC's loss, but I'm too worried about Duke's game against Creighton later. I'd be lying if I said that I thought tonight would be a cakewalk for Duke. I'm always terrified of Duke's performance in the tournament. Will they show up to play or not?

I, for one, am hoping Duke's game was left back in Durham with the spare pair of team undies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they will win tonight's game. I wouldn't worry so much about that one. But I don't think they have the team this year that will win the whole thing. I think Miami or Louisville will be the champs when the smoke clears. I'm leaning toward Miami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they will get lucky and Creighton won't take out of of their best players like they did with UNC last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We agree on something, Brick! I'm with you. They're so much fun to watch. This spring is just a kick in the gut after a crap winter. I'm enjoying it thoroughly. I'll take plenty more of this weather, if I can get it. I'm getting rain. The yard is green. The temperatures are cool/cold. I know it will always eventually get hot. The longer that I can keep the jacket in use, I'm happy. So, I'd have to completely disagree with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, sorry you didn't cash in on this one. It's now up to 34 here, flakes are tiny, and most of what was on the ground has melted. Oh well.

I'm sure for all those who want hot, dry, and heavy pollen, you'll get your wish soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superjames1992 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Temps aren't there yet, but we've got time. I'll take that track anytime. Just give me a stronger high pressure to the north and we'll lock it up. NOT worried about the calendar reading April at all. 3-6" is my first call for the Piedmont. The only real question is "How Much?"; the storm itself is guaranteed. After all, I saw it on the GFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isopycnic Posted March 26, 2013 Author Share Posted March 26, 2013 This was posted on Fb yesterday and taken somewhere in VA... Although,I don't remember the leafout for central NC last March 25th being that pronounced. That would be a pretty impressive leafout even for early April in central NC. Folks, In case you don't recall VA weather one year ago today, take a look.... Top pic, Mar 25, 2012, bottom pic.. today:( EDIT: I was wrong. Here is a pic I took om 3/31/12 coming back from the Amwx SE GTG last year. A VERY Impressive early season leafout last year.

Isopycnic Posted March 26, 2013 Author Share Posted March 26, 2013 this week in Clear Weather http://blogs.newsobserver.com/clearweather/reporting-and-measuring-storm-damage#wgt=rss Reporting and measuring storm damage Submitted by nmorock on 03/25/2013 - 09:00 (Niki Morock) Despite the cooler than normal temperatures we are experiencing, March is the beginning of meteorological spring and a time that usually begins a peak in severe weather. When we do start experiencing warmer temperatures and higher relative humidity, the storms will follow as they always do. With them will come storm damage reports from Skywarn spotters and the general public. Anyone can call in a damage report, and when done correctly, it is a great help to the National Weather Service.

Cold Rain Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Yeah, I was outside yesterday evening and remarked to my wife that I remember last year during March, the trees were much greener than this year. It started in February last year which I though was highly unusual. Now, things are finally starting to bud at the end of March....much more normal. In Myrtle Beach the week before last, the yellow pollen started. We got down there on Thursday. On Friday, nothing. On Saturday, the car had a light coating of yellow. So it's coming. I hate that stuff. I remember a few years ago, we had a very dry and windy start to Spring. Once the yellow pollen started, it stayed in the air for weeks. You could look out the window, and the air had a yellow haze to it. It was the worst I've ever seen. Hopefully, with a wetter start this year, it'll act to keep the pollen out of the air to a decent extent anyway. Fun times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bevo Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 It puts a little perspective on just how "warm" this winter was in comparison to last. I know many have remarked on the early arrival of bees and ants, but in reality a warmer winter would have pushed an earlier start to foliage as it did last year. I'm not saying it was a cold winter through and through. I am saying that it was closer to normal though. Those photos paint a picture that may even conflict with what statistical data would suggest.

Stovepipe Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I agree, this was a solidly normal winter. At least normal for the past 15 years. We get pissy waiting on a big dog, but big dogs aren't normal here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
