If your point is that Raleigh could get nothing, then that's valid. They are still partying in the Southeast forum though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was tactless regardless of whether it was right. how was it "tactless"? i said the radar trends clearly are showing the coastal areas would be the spot and that often times it seems that the appalachians dry out storms just like they can for us. i guess i need to go into microphysics to post here? sometimes, this board takes the fun out of being a regular hobbyist. hate to break it to you, but there are times where people probably want to read posts other than the regulars. just sayin'. enjoy your weekend. edit: if you're referring to what i said pointed to the moderator. well, maybe they shouldn't delete posts for no effin' reason. to me, deleting a post is similar to spitting in my face or walking away while i'm talking to someone. you can't just delete posts for no reason and expect someone to not get pissed off. anyway, off to run errands.
