metalicwx366 Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Serious question here! Is it bad if you are already seeing mosquitos in February? I killed a big one yesterday. We had an extremely wet last year and this year we are above rainfall as well already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the beauty of an ice storm but like power. Yes, those of us with smaller children surely do NOT want to lose power. I would take IP over ZR any day.

After you been through an inch+ ice storm its something you don't want to expierence again. Trees breaking, powerlines down is not my idea of good time.

You are the chosen one to see years into the future Not rocket science, even simplest minded people can understand this, in the 90's we went 7 years between 6" events, this past 10 years have been really bad for RDU as evidence by the snow totals thread, no reason to think we can't match that or even beat it, so it could be 5 or 6 more years between 6" events. If I was a betting man I would take the over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilj4425 Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 So it looks like I will get somewhere between 0-20 inches of snow according to today's model runs. Well, glad we cleared that up. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TullyHeel Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Well, looks more and more like we're going to have a winter storm here next week. The question is will it be two events or one big one, and how much snow vs ice. Either way it looks like a pretty decent event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
