No the cold aloft is also slower, same problem we have everytime, maybe after it gets dark.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCsandhills Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 i knew temps would be a problem. it was 35 for hours in central wake, finally down to 33 or 34...big fat flakes, sticking on cars and grass, starting to finally stick a little on parking lots idk about the roads. I have done 1 winter each in south Durham, central Carrboro, west Raleigh, Sanford and midtown Raleigh. So far midtown Raleigh is the worst. Jan 6-7 the snow hole was over mby for hours and today its above freezing for hours. smh. Lease ends in June. Time to relocate to Morrisville or something! Temps were no issue when i was at work in RTP/morrisville. Snow hole wasnt there either. I'm trying not to complain too much cause there is about 1.5", but still.

You could always live here in ILM area and miss out on almost every storm that passes through the Carolinas. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh. I know we have some snow imby so i shouldnt be complaining, but it can be irritating when 2 miles in every direction there's double the amount and sub30 temps. ILM is not really ever a snow magnet though, so meh again. You'd be disappointed too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting on snow Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 2 hours ago, No snow for you said: So we are adding Raleigh and mooresville to places with more snow than Greenville after today. At least I don’t live in simpsonville At least you don't live in CAE. No accumulating snow in 4 years and got f***** again today. Way past the point of ridiculous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEwakenosnowforu Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Where are all the experts that said...Temps will not be an issue! Lol...wrong. I feel bad for Fayetteville area.

burrel2 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 My streak of never having a 6 inch snowfall at my house is still in tact.... and i'm 32 years old. I've only witnessed one snow over 4 inches, and that was 5.75 inches in January 2011; of course greenville managed 8 inches or snow from that storm. Edit to add: I don't count Jan 1988 b/c I was 3 years old and don't remember it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the last great snow for Greenville. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One day, the stars will align and i'll get a big storm, and it will be all that much sweeter after the life-time wait. That's what I've been telling myself the last 15 years or so anyways.

WidreMann Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I feel like I deserve a roasting. I mean, the HRRR temps were worrying and we did stay above freezing for most of the event, but we still got a ton of snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit to add: I don't count Jan 1988 b/c I was 3 years old and don't remember it. Yea I’m 32 as well. Parents moved down from the Midwest late 87 when I was 1.5. Few months later Charlotte gets their biggest snowfall on record lol. That stood for a while and I obviously don’t remember the 88 storm. But I sure remember the 2004 storm. Got 16 inches where I lived then, few miles from where I am now. And that was 16 inches of snow piled up. Not continually swept off a board to prevent it from compacting. I’d pay to see a storm like that again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
