There is no need for people to take regional desires personally, in the storm thread. Of course, Raleigh- and Charlotte-area posters are looking for any hint that the storm may throw precipitation further back inland. This would probably mean that the beaches get rain, but it doesn't mean that Raleigh and Charlotte hate the people who live at the beach.

Those who live at the beach have very little desire to see this trend NW much at all: they are content with where we stand. It doesn't mean that they relish seeing Charlotte and Raleigh miss out on snow and that they secretly thrive off dashing their dreams. Each area naturally wants snow more for their backyards than for any other location. It is what is. Accept it.

If you want more people to post about impacts in your backyard, then look in the mirror and step to the plate. We have a few posters who are very good at addressing board-wide effects, but most people (again) naturally post about weather that affects their backyards. (Your other option is to find some knowledgeable locals and convince them to join this board and share their insights.)

As for me, I'm hoping for a mega-phase with an LP consolidation in the northern GOM that progresses right up the SE coast. Hello, foot of snow IMBY! Of course, that is so incredibly unlikely with this current system that there's really no point in discussing that option in the storm thread. It doesn't mean I won't stop hoping, though. (It also doesn't mean I dislike all you posters east of me.) Hope springs eternal...

Because this storm is going N-S and there is a lot of cold air, even if it were further west such that the beaches get some rain, they'd still likely get some frontside and backside snow.

People still trying to believe anybody besides Kitty Hawk, sees a few crusty flurries flurries on Wed, are going to be in for a big dissapointment! Just pathetic really

pretty horrible post. there is a real possibility areas further inland from the immediate coast see something noteworthy and attacking those who could be impacted is what is pathetic.

hilarious seeing the mods elsewhere claiming to be big snow lovers posting silly one word posts which are 100% negative and declaring the winter is OVER....very happy they banned me and hope they enjoy being led around by spain park chris

You sure seem very concerned with whatever is happening on the "other" board, even though you claim to be happy that you are no longer affiliated with it.  Just jump on board here and ignore whatever happened over there.

no problem, their mods bash this place daily, my interest is in the actual weather, not in being part of any cliques here or anywhere else.....i limit my posting in an effort to comply with any and all rules.

You can post a lot and still comply with all the rules.

NAM is showing 1-2 inches of snow for Atlanta overnight Sunday night.   Why is no one talking about it?

If you haven't noticed, this is a Raleigh heavy subforum.  Atlanta posters should probably spend as much time reading the Tennessee Valley su forum.  Raleigh not getting any snow is the reason for this thread.

"Don't your feet get cold in the Wintertime

The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine

It's hard to tell the nighttime from the day

Losin` all your highs and lows

Ain't it funny how the feelin` goes away..."

Man, love some Eagles!! But " Cold as Ice" might be appropriate now, god it's cold out!

I admit we account for quite a bit of the posts in here, but technically it looks like we can thank one of our Virginia posters for this thread's existence.
