87storms Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Raleigh has 1.5" of snow this year. Haven't had over 2" since Boxing Day 2010. it's funny. i made a post in the southeastern thread during that storm saying how i thought raleigh would underperform and that the spot to be in would be the hampton roads area, and my post got deleted. naturally, it pissed me off and my account was promptly suspended. smh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthArlington101 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 You're still not getting what I'm saying-- I'm not saying we are still in it. I'm saying there's no reason to assume that anyone is going to get nailed next week and that Raleigh folk would be reasonably skittish given the bust they experienced a couple of weeks ago... 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87storms Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 You should have thought more before making that post. 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.

Bob Chill Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Nobody wants input from a non red tag visitor about how they are going to suck during a storm. That is why it was tactless. I'm not sure why you wouldn't understand that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure why you wouldn't understand that "visitor" is the key word. Why would anyone go into another subforum and say "bust" during an event?

I'm not sure why you wouldn't understand that so then what's the purpose of this forum? to be irrationally optimistic or to call it like you see it? i never said they would suck and wasn't pointing fun. my sister lives in va beach. i was happy they got snow. i think some people are just way too sensitive towards snow in their backyard. it wasn't a "delete worthy" post.

I just went in there-- most are pretty cautious, and there's discussion on the vast model disagreements 60 hours out. There's like one poster who's all-in.

I think your missing the point. We're like fans with home teams. If you are a skins fan and go to dallas, 90k people don't want to hear why dallas is going to lose from a burgundy and gold shirt even if dallas is in the unlikely position of being down in the 4th quarter.

stormtracker Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 There are at least 5 posts about the Carolinas or Raleigh cashing in while we miss it.....including one by you naming Raleigh specifically. What else did you mean by "Congrats Raleigh.. I'm off this ride."? So saying congrats Raleigh is the same as making a comparison to it, which I clearly didn't do. Cool. Sound logic.

stormtracker Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 If your point is that Raleigh could get nothing, then that's valid. They are still partying in the Southeast forum though. Of course Raleigh could get nothing. My comment was based on what models show and had ZERO to do with comparing our climate to theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormtracker Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 looking at the 12z run, I can see the GFS leading the way for the Euro to follow suit come 12z or tonight's run Of course it will...it already started with the 0z run. The GFS is the new Dr. No and often times, it's right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Chill Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 The great lakes low is satan in weather form. Such a small but destructive force for hopes and dreams. The gfs solution is still pretty cool for weather in general. The big dig and phase is new. Not sure how it could possibly help us unless the ns vort digs deep and take the low with it. Impossibilities are always worth considering. It's in the handbook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't view the weather like that. The storms aren't teams that get a buzz from people cheering them on. The forum should be a place that allows unbiased opinions without people getting upset.

gymengineer Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 So saying congrats Raleigh is the same as making a comparison to it, which I clearly didn't do. Cool. Sound logic. If you bothered to read the rest of the posts, you would have seen that I wasn't talking about making the climo comparison. I was saying it would be like someone last March right after our bust saying "Congrats DC" the next time a model showed a DC snowstorm.

87storms Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Yup these forums are just too restrictive. i'm impatient with rudeness these days. life is too short and i like the weather too much. since you're a mod, and since you agree with mods deleting posts for no other reason other than because i'm not from their region, then i'm just in the wrong place. it's nothing personal to me. i'll post elsewhere and my life will go on and i will continue tracking the weather. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huffwx Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I didn't read it.

Edited to add: Comparing fortunes, not climo Your post still doesn't make sense. But ok. Saying congrats Raleigh based on today's models is in no way making a comparison to anything in any context at all. It's just saying Raleigh gets hit based on today's model runs. That's it.
