DixieBlizzard Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I believe his username at easternuswx was "33Rain." He was a fellow Charlottean who was quite knowledgeable about snowstorms that occurred in Charlotte back in the 60s, 70s and 80s. A very entertaining poster at eastern. You are exactly right. I think Rankin5150 was Jeremy's friend if I recall. Looked like a cop or fireman in his avatar. I was wanting to call "33Rain" the name "cold rain" but that wasn't him obviously. Really different style of posting. LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DixieBlizzard Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 yeah Sorry but its not. At that vantage point thats just entering the heart of the piedmont and sandhills. I will defend metal man here. When I first looked at the picture, it looked like frosty mountains looking presumably south on CLT. Cool. Then I read what metal said and looked at it again and it's really a cool take on the photo. In that way, the picture is even better for it's artistic value.

He didn't say it was a picture of the ocean, just that it looked like one. I can see it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WXinCanton Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Atlanta has a big 0 now on the latest run, but not a word from FFC. Please stop, read their forecast discussion. It lays out their thoughts clear as day. They are not going to update with every model run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max100 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 They can't change the forecast with every run that comes out. They are playing it safe. As the day gets closer, the forecast temps will start to lower. Our NWS is doing the same here. We have a forecast high in the 40s yet the models don't show us getting above freezing for a high. I know and no offense, but you live at about 50 feet above sea level near a huge swamp and are close to 300 miles SE of Atlanta it is a different world climate wise here. They are being ULTRA conservative especially when it is staring them flat in the face. I currently have 19 at my house actually colder than last night at this time.

NO, it does not, it does not even come close to lows and highs that are being advertised. They are saying 15-20 degrees below normal "possible", that is NOT what every other NWS office is advertising currently and have been even since yesterday.

It also says Lows in the single digits to teens. You keep harping on FFC with every model run. And models are guidance not gospel. Anywho, Im not going to argue about anymore.

max100 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Forecast high on Tuesday 15 miles west of me in AL is only 19. This is my point with FFC...And that is probably too high there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
