metalicwx366 Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 That means full sun all day for you! It's actually raining.Still mad because I just checked radar and we missed a huge storm to the East. That could have a quick 1-2 inches of rain.

gritsnc Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 It will tick west. Will it be enough? I don't know. (Okay, I'm just a weenie guessing... I don't know) EDIT: Or... maybe not. At least it doesn't look any worse. Time to ride the GFS to glory. I hope you're right. NC Piedmont Weather (I can't ever remember his real name) still has our area in the "heavy snow possible" part of the map. I'm putting my trust in what he says.

I don't think NC Piedmont weather has had a very good year. Hasn't that site hyped up several major snowstorms? Maybe I'm thinking of someone else. Regardless, I hope their right this time!

A lot of people say he hypes the storms up, but the ones he does, always turn out to be right. For instance the last one he kept saying that forecasters were downplaying it and to not let your guards down. It turned out being much more than many expected.

Cold Rain Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 First day of softball practice. Hard to imagine a nicer day for it. I am anticipating a sore lower back by this evening and sore quads tomorrow. It's funny to think back about how I used to be able to get in the car, go to the bball court or the softball field and just jump right into a game, with no warm ups or stretching or anything. Now, if I try to do that, my arm falls off or I pull 10 major muscles or trip over the grass or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Rain Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 The Euro is going to stay east with maybe the slightest tick west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packbacker Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 The Euro is going to stay east with maybe the slightest tick west. Better than 0z run, looks like a late phase, well later then we need but precip is west for central NC. Should be big for NE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superjames1992 Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 First guess: CLT: T-1" GSO: T-1" RDU: 1-3" My thought is that it will verify on the lower end of those guesses, but nevertheless...

superjames1992 Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 El Nino is typically not good for North Atlantic hurricane activity, so I would expect us to not have a terribly active season. Then again, I'm no tropical expert and there's a lot more that goes into it than ENSO conditions. --- BTW, it actually feels pretty hot outside now. If I were to do any work out there, I'd be sweating... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjames1992 Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Those are weenie calls, lol! First and last call GSP: 0 accums 0 flakes! The T-1" for GSO/CLT can be satisfied with a single flake falling, which doesn't seem too crazy at this time. RDU's 1-3" call is a little more precarious because I could foresee a situation where RDU gets white rain during the day on Tuesday with temperatures in the mid-30s and gets zero accumulation, despite snow falling much of the day. Of course, it could also go wide-right and have no precip at all. I agree with your GSP call! There's still time for this to shift better or worse, so those totals could always go up or down.

mackerel_sky Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Man this thing was never a great chance, but really going into the crapper yesterday and today! Wow, what a crash and burn. It doesn't matter if it trends 200 miles west, with high temps in the mid 40s , per RAH, enjoy the rain or rain/snow mix! What a dud for a last storm to track! I was honestly hoping for my NC peeps to get some snow, but already marginal temps are trending warmer, not good at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
