wxmaggot Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I post VERY infrequently, mainly in the banter thread if I do. I have been lurking and learning (what a phrase hahaha) for over 4 years now. I can't begin to tell you posters how valuable and educational this forum is. I want to thank all of you who post for your time and valuable insights. I also want to take a second to tell folks who haven't done so to donate to this site. If you enjoy this site as much as I, it's the least you can do. Carry on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Rain Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 To Mag and Qwerty and others in that same boat, I would like to thank you all for posting obs during storms. There are lots of folks that don't post a lot but show up in obs threads during events. I used to have to look at the radar or wait for hourly NWS updates or rely on TV mets to see what was happening where. All of you who post obs make that picture much, much clearer. Thank you all for that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rduwx Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 We definitely need more model agreement for this weekends event. Imo, a phase is going to happen and it will be a cutter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timnc910 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Mets always blow the forecast in my area. We got at least a quarter inch if not a half inch of ice here.. power went out from 2 till 10 this morning... county wide there were 2000 outages.. and they was saying we was only going to get a glaze then switch to rain but boy they were wrong.

Dunkman Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 The sledding is epic out there today. The only problem is the stopping. My kids haven't quite mastered that yet on the pure ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packbacker Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 What was the total QPF for RDU for last night? .59 RGEM progged 15mm consistently. Euro was about that too. Obviously the 1"+ NAM stuff it spits out was to much, again. Can NCEP just purchase the RGEM to replace the NAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it was nuts. We have had those old time wooden sleds with the metal rails for years now and haven't been able to use them. They were awesome today, I almost threw them away last fall.

sparklecity Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I think I've had enough sleet the last two years to last a lifetime. For those not wanting fzrn we got lucky that alot of the the precip fell as sleet in the upstate. Personally, I love fzrn and have been fascinated with it since the destructive one we had when I was younger and again in 2005. So for me personally, that's two years in a row I've been screwed by sleet. Now if we could just get one of the big gulf fetches going when we have a traditional cad we would be in business (yeah right lol). I did end up with 1/3" accretion. The power flickered a few times and I saw some transformers lighting up the sky prob a couple miles away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 All jokes aside, my map I posted Sunday was actually surprisingly good! lol I took the totals from both here on the board and (mainly) from the respective NWS offices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timnc910 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Looks like that slug of moisture in the gulf is trying to make its way north... any input on this or is it just going out to sea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjames1992 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 RGEM progged 15mm consistently. Euro was about that too. Obviously the 1"+ NAM stuff it spits out was to much, again. Can NCEP just purchase the RGEM to replace the NAM. Meh, all of the modeling was too high here. The Euro was the closest. Even the RGEM bumped us up to 0.75"+ totals during the final run or two before the event. The GFS was generally the highest and the NAM was usually in the 0.75-1" range. The SREF was around 0.60" up until the final few runs before the storm, when it bumped up to 0.8"+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
