Please take the honors in starting the bust thread.

You want no one other's input other than your own when you declare to our forum members in Charlotte that they are going to be crushed by a foot of snow. It is not right for you to do that without any significant understanding of atmospheric physics. Just because you latch on to a model that shows what you would like to happen in your back yard does not make it news worthy to others. Your wishcasting is totally out of control and a disservice to others who participate in our forum in a collaborative manner that promotes an enjoyable positive experience in the study and discussion of meteorology without personally attacking professional members just because their analysis if it will snow in your backyard is different from yours.

You should know by now that significant snow in your part of South Carolina is a relatively rare event once every 5 years or so. This storm has been border line at best in your area since day one. It also has been a tough winter for snow here in the mountains. We have been nickled and dimed all winter until finally getting some significant snow last week.

I am glad you find pleasure in following meteorology and I would hope you will be more considerate and thoughtful of the feelings and contributions of our many fine contributing members of our forum.

It's just snow....please get over it. You have an invitation to come up and alpine or cross country ski anytime. Ski rental and lift tickets are on us.

Hey Bill great call. Can we all get tickets? Be a fun trip!

CC radar is showing a transition headed quickly NE. Maybe it'll subside, but it needs to do that soon.

Snow is still pouring down. I measured anywhere between 2-5", more in grassy areas, less on the sidewalks, though still got 3"+ on some sidewalk areas. Noticed more wind too, but nothing big. Also no thundersnow :(.

I swear you live in my apartment complex, but it's hard to tell with all that snow. Also, I didn't see you out walking.

Has an event ever underperformed this much in recorded history for CLT? I would highly doubt it.

 

The only time I can remember in NC would be in Dec 2000 living in Raleigh. We were projected over a foot and got a trace.

 

Tonight, GSP has 10-12 for the metro area and just south of uptown will be lucky to have snow on the ground at daybreak. I'd love to see if anyone has a bigger bust on file.
