Bevo Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Lol. He called for a hot dry summer and a warm crappy winter. Pretty spot on. Yeah....Nope. My ground has been wet since July. It's been cold enough for two snow events. Definitely not "spot on". Maybe there were periods of similarity, but overall not that close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjames1992 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 It seems nearly impossible to have a good winter here anymore. No matter how good things supposedly look heading into winter, it seems there is always something these days to throw a wrench in things. Not sure if the climate is changing or things just don't work like they did in the past, but I think long range outlooks are really useless here. Just too many things can happen, and I don't think anyone can really know which way things can go here for winter. Mets don't even know of 12 hours out sometimes what is going to happen with a winter storm threat, and we sure as heck can't depend on the models most of the time to get it right. RDU was above climo in snowfall the last two winters. Perhaps expectations are just too high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YetAnotherRDUGuy Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Can we go one storm. ONE storm. Just one. Without talking about Fishel? Sometimes reading this stuff feels like I'm taking crazy pills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bevo Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Lol. He called for a hot dry summer and a warm crappy winter. Pretty spot on. The fact that I have now seen snow falling on 4 separate occasions in the last 2 weeks makes that forecast invalid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can someone remind why everyone was happy to see wolpfackbacker? NCrain just says exactly what the models are showing. He doesn't cherry pick cold/snowy/wintry frames to make weenies happy like some do around here. He just tells it like it is and wrongly catches total crap from it. So does everyone around here that brings a taste of reality to the threads. What people want to hear and what people need to hear are usually two totally different things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
