Crapper Jim Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Did y'all see this going around on Facebook? I've checked WDs in Alaska from time-to-time, in the winter. If this is not real... it's real close! It's just missing... the "fat, ugly chick" reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvegas-wx Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Did anyone just catch that meteorite over walkertown?? It was HUGE! And GREEN! I am praying I am not the only one who saw that. Hoping a weather cam or something caught it. Walking the dog and the damn thing came over nearly due south to north. Gone in less than 2 seconds. Anyone??

I was outside trying to photograph the moon and as I was looking through the viewfinder, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a flash. I pulled back, looked around, looked up, etc. I couldn't figure out wth happened! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparklecity Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Another flood watch fail for my area. At least this time we got about .5". Better than sprinkles I guess. Precip diminishes as it approaches and reinvigorates as its moving away. Don't know why I'm surprised, seen it happen a million times! As I type we have another classic Spartanburg split on the radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calculus1 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 "Firenado" in San Diego Co. today. Honestly... never heard of this until this morning.

NCsandhills Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Man today was amazing. Just a nice steady rain all day, with temps in the mid 70s and a good breeze. Apparently we've seen 0.85" so far and could see up to an additional 1" tonight (it is still a nice steady rain). I have my back door open listening to it and letting the fresh air in....I just hope, being in Fayettenam, no sh*theads take advantage of the open door -_- So ready for these upcoming 70s. Christ it's not even June yet and I'm tired of 90s haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isopycnic Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 2.08" since 1pm, 2 hours, 5.84" so far. Making a run at 6" in the past 9 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCsandhills Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Where can I go for accurate rainfall totals? TWC is only reporting 1.25" for Durham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isopycnic Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Where can I go for accurate rainfall totals? TWC is only reporting 1.25" for Durham. Wunderground's Wundermap has all the PWS stations. Looks like an average of 3-5" around the area. http://www.wunderground.com/wundermap/?lat=36.07458115&lon=-79.07765961&zoom=8&pin=&rad=1&wxsn=0&svr=0&cams=0&sat=0&riv=0&mm=0&hur=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharonA Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 I've checked WDs in Alaska from time-to-time, in the winter. If this is not real... it's real close! It's just missing... the "fat, ugly chick" reference. It's for real. Go pull the AFDs for AJK, and go back until you find that one. The weather.gov retrieval page has the last 35 AFDs. The one in question is timestamped "601 AM AKDT TUE MAY 13 2014", which makes it 66 hours old by now. As of now (00:13 Eastern time 5/16), that specific AFD is in slot #17/35 and #18/35 (it's not unusual to have extra copies or a tiny edit made). Here's the URL, which will be obsolete as soon as the next AFD is released by that office and bumps version=17 to 18, and the old 18 to 19: http://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=NWS&issuedby=AJK&product=AFD&format=CI&version=17&glossary=0 further down the same AFD, after some discussion it says: AND AS I TAKE MY EUROPEAN DATE ON MY WAY...NAM WHISPERS..."YOU WON`T NEED AN UMBRELLA IN JUNEAU"...AND WINKS MY WAY. BUT I WILL WEAR MY RAINCOAT...BUT WONDER IF NAM IS RIGHT. (Credits are JWA/RWT) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
