btownheel Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Are we getting NAMed? came in wetter and warmer it looks to me......these are good things. if that front hit the brakes just a touch the line theoretically will back further north and west as it rides it. We don't need much....50 miles or so max. Cold ain't gonna be an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winterhawk Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Tell her that's a great idea. It will make us nearly invisible in the snow. BTW, this makes her an accomplice so she better hope we don't get caught.. Guess I've been married too long and can't interpret well anymore; thanks for the help! Now her friend wants to go help; I'm in bigger trouble.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjames1992 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 What's up James? I'm close to 3" on the NAM. This is the same damn model that didn't give me a flake at 12z. You get hammered. BL temps ruin it for coastal weenies, but don't they have the beach to enjoy? EDIT: Wait, I'm losing it. I was looking at the GFS. The NAM is a disaster. Well, I might get 1-2", so maybe "disaster" isn't the right word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magpiemaniac Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Go home, SREF. You're drunk. A mean of 7.5" of snow for GSO? Even throwing out the three highest members, the mean is over 5". I'll believe it when I see it. Edit: Per packfan98, I accidentally posted the previous 21z. But even if the mean slips to 3", it's all overdone. This system is DOA for the Triad.

Well, I might get 1-2", so maybe "disaster" isn't the right word. I was about to say. The NAM has been stingy with the QPF for GSO this entire time. That's why I'm not buying our getting anything more than one inch tops. Though I'd say you're total might be slight better than mine since I'm a few miles north.

I'll believe it when I see it. I think that's last night's 21z run. The last run I saw was around 3" now. That's awesome. What's the QPF for RDU? I can't see because I'm on my phone because the better half is on the computer working and I don't want to get yelled at. Sorry, I made a deceptive post earlier because I apparently don't know how to view the NAM and clicked on the GFS instead. LOL. Anyways, ~0.5" for RDU. 0.1" for GSO. It's an improvement over 18z, I think, but the NAM has been drier/further east than the other models this whole time. I say we toss it and go with the GFS/RAP/whatever other model that gives us the most snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No precip to the west and warm to the east. There's a smallish strip of jackpot zone and everyone else gets screwed in one way or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lookingnorth Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 No. Bungee jump so you can be back for the next model run and jump again! But if I predict nothing, I will be happy with the 1-3 inches I will probably get! Plus, the bad NAM makes me worry about a downward trend in snow predictions.
