NCSU_Pi Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I lived three winters in Maryland, one of which was '09-'10. What a special time it was. I just came by to reminisce, cause I'm back in Raleigh, and staring down an ice storm. Y'all enjoy the snow. It could always be worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhineasC Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I hate it when the sun comes out after a blizzard. I'd prefer the following day to be cloudy, cold with flurries. One thing no one has been discussing is that it warms up right after this storm. Upper 30s and some 40s next week. Melting will start Sunday and continue the whole week. That sucks. So enjoy it while it lasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercurial Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Sun after a blizzard is fine as long as temps are well below freezing. But yes, the moment the temp spikes to well above freezing, the snow becomes a sloppy, crusty liability more than anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melting will start Sunday and continue the whole week. That sucks. So enjoy it while it lasts. That's how nino's typically roll. I was amazed how fast 10 feet of snow melted in Feb 2010. The Dec 09 storm got washed down the gutter 5 days later. Feb 83 was a quick melt. Jan-Feb 03 waa pretty epic though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterWxLuvr Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 This is just a terrible post. This is at least the second time you've congratulated the models tonight. That's like congratulating a football team on its win before the game has started! Let's see what actually pans out before congratulating a model. I think you could be singing a different tune when this turns into a Philly special and we get a crusty 6 inches... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmlwx Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Just want to take a sec to say how much of fan favorite Bob Chill has become (at least IMO). Rapid learner and has become one of the best posters in our subforum. He's easily up there with some of the mets. Keep it up Bob! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grothar of Herndon Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 This should be named the Mixing Storm...I have never seen so many people worried about mixing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmlwx Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 This should be named the Mixing Storm...I have never seen so many people worried about mixing. SSDY - every single year it's either the same cluster of people or new weenies that invade worrying about it. Yes it could mix...still gonna be a big time storm and a lot of our big events do mix in spots (as has been mentioned like 1000 times). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowfan Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 It's like people don't understand how big storms go down in this area. N/W almost always does better. There was a dry slot in 96 before the band's moved back over the area, pingers in 93, etc. There's always some issue even in the biggest of storms. We're not getting a uniform 24" across the entire area. Someone will boom and someone will get some mid-teens number and be pissed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason I find it more annoying to be getting 20 inches while some place in the distant hills gets 30 inches. This doesn't seem to happen when I am getting 6 inches and they are getting 10. Not sure what is going on. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
