In my opinion, this one ranks as one of the biggest busts of all time. If only for the massive amounts of precip forcasted for a large part of central NC. The fact the Carolina Crusher happened 11 months previously made the expectations worse. Now that we had actually seen those amounts happen in real life, it made it more believable. Sigh.

Wow, You had to be on the bloody edge to score there. yep.. and previous years' storms I remember the sound of sleet quite well to blow another forecast. We scraped by with a nearly all snow event.

Remember leaving my friend’s house in Charlotte early that evening to get back to Raleigh before the snowpocalypse was supposed to happen. I would look out the car window repeatedly to look for the incoming cloud cover, only to see a star filled sky the entire night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shack Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Just dang happy that we may get to see some flakes fly. I live in Macon but will be driving up I-85 to Charlotte on Friday. My daughter is a ballerina with Charlotte Ballet and they have their opening night on Friday. It sure would be cool for the stage to be set in the real world on North Tryon to match the stage inside the Belk Theater ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packbacker Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Feels like a lot of effort in tracking what will be a 40F heavy rain event. But, drought is growing, so why not. Atleast Mack will get his snow, that’s all I really want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As typical 50 miles to your NW good ole Roxboro will be snowing. But yeah I having fun tracking the potential rain too. At least it's not last winter. Very warm and bad drought last. Even though Nov to April/May is the dry season here. I can already tell this winter will be different due too the cool mornings. On the other had I'll have a side of cmc. Potentially 1-1.5 of rain here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Energy in the SW must stay more consolidated and stronger before more energy drops in behind. More phasing too. Must pull that H5 lobe near ATL. On the other hand... This is cold for central FL standards. Apopka FL roughly 12-15 miles NW of Orlando. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Rain Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 At least Pack and I won't have to wait until the last minute to find out we won't get snow like last year. I'm just hopeful that it doesn't shift so far west that we get dry-slotted. We need the rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
