superjames1992 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I like how WRAL doesn't even try with their call map outside of their viewing area. It makes no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way in hell CLT sees 10-12, per GSP, unless a wide deform band drops insane rates. Not chalking up to a loss yet, but I'm not seeing these projected totals verifying. They've already dropped me from 6-10 to 4-8. I may get 4. I'll call that a win and call it a winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDeac Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Just once I'd like to see a forecast easily verify. At least the bud light tastes good tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshWeather Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 i could see raleigh and east doing well as the low goes up the coast. I just don't think Charlotte and those west are gonna go as high as expected. Those deform bands are gonna get smaller and smarller as they go. Someone will get an additional 2-3 inches, but its gonna be small. Stallings was predicted to get AT the LEAST 3-5 inches. More than likely gonna get nothing but rain.

They are always too scared to make a call beforehand and just wait to see what happens before they make an actual forecast. Anyone can do that.

CherokeeGA Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Well... this event pretty much sums up the entire 2014-2015 winter. Huge on hype, short on delivery. Started out strong only to wilt like a... nevermind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HRRR did have that warm bubble for us with all snow about now until 2-3am then looks to go sleet till 5-6am and back to light snow. If we are getting 8"' it better snow hard next 3-4 hours and it better be right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCsandhills Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 It's 11P. Hasn't this event like...just started? Pretty sure it's supposed to go until at least 6-8AM. I could be wrong.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if most of our moisture is gone by 2-3 AM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor John Cess, still on air now saying the upper level energy will pivot through and bring most who are seeing rain and sleet , will see snow for a few hours, umm no, won't happen! Even with a huge spread in totals of 3-7", we busted hard, let it go John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDeac Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Also seems like mets, even Brad P, are hanging on to high totals at this point. The cliff is several feet above me at this point. Good luck to my family/friends in N Raleigh. You win again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookingnorth Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 There's only a little over 1" here I think. I seriously doubt we get 8-10" and I'm still concerned about changing back to rain. It's still 34 here, so the snow is melting somewhat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said as low reaches the atlantic winds are going to shift and pull moisture in from the atlantic and intensify the bands over the upstate. Also the winds will shift and lower temps.

Winterhawk Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Awesome for the coming week, more moisture. At least this time our temps are in the 60's so no chance for the crappy models to give us false hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeatherNC Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Lived here for about 10 years and can't remember ever going from snow to sleet to rain then back to snow. Also hard pressed to remember accumulation on top of a previous systems accumulation, which is the case at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skbl17 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I would shake Cheeznado's hand right now if I could; despite my (and others) claims that he was being too pessimistic, leaning on the NAM too much, and so on, his forecast turned out to be correct. Bravo! Closer to home, FFC is still keeping us under a winter storm warning for black ice. Seriously? What's bad about these busted forecasts is that it's setting up a 1/28/14 scenario again. Public mistrust in FFC will probably increase because of not one but two botched winter weather forecasts. So, the next time a big winter storm is on the horizon and FFC sounds the alarm, not many (outside of the EMA) will listen to them. Everyone will pretend it's a normal day, since "those darn weather people in Peachtree City" screwed up winter weather forecasts in 2015. Then the big one comes, and everyone's stuck on the roads. Snowjam all over again. Otherwise, this was a classic way to end this pitiful, pathetic winter. It's all the same, really: big storm shows up 5-10 days out, it gets within 5 days, almost everyone wants it to come north, almost everyone gets screwed in the end (too much sleet, dry slots, WAA everywhere, too much rain). Amazing! The GFS says that severe storms are on the horizon. Hope the models bust, but watch Mother Nature decide that she's not done screwing us, leading to a significant tornado outbreak this Spring.
