I'm just hopeful that it doesn't shift so far west that we get dry-slotted. We need the rain. Add me to that party. We are all not that far apart. Need the rain badly, the fish in my pond are going to have to learn to walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Also live near the cold rain snow hole Since moving down from the MA i have resorted to buying the cheap gel cling snowflakes for my windows, makes it feel more like winter. Atleast my palm trees grow great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Rain Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Just now, wncsnow said: IDK last nights EURO looked pretty good for you triangle folks.. It's just setting us up. It did that last year too. It'll catch up Northwest with the other models. Today at 12z, watch the axis shift to over the Burlington area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wncsnow Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 That's usually correct but idk, not really feeling this setup for a big system for western areas, this it will be remain weaker and East.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is still a big spread for the EPS, anywhere from 85 west crush jobs to whiffs and everything in between. Inside 72 hours it’s as big a spread as I can recall for the EPS.

Amazing really..it going to be very interesting if the big dog members verify.. some local mets are gonna be grilled... they havent even mentioned the possibility of a 2-4 inch snowstorm much less anything bigger..

DopplerWx Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 i think last january's bust has scarred me for life. can't get up for this threat at all. in years past i would get hopeful but this year i just know that nobody outside of the mtns will get anything from it.

Said the same thing yesterday. Any other winter I would be pumped at this potential...really just hoping we flip to warm in a couple of weeks, burned out and it’s only Dec 6. Watching the Euro spit out several runs in a row now of solid snows for Raleigh when you know it has no chance to verify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Atleast last January there was cold around. Yes it came after the rain but it was still there. Theres just no real cold air, i need to stop wasting time tracking until temps arent so marginal at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was so pissed about last year's epic bust in RDU that I went out and attempted to kick the icy slush the in morning. I ended up slipping on the ice instead and smacked my head on a post and ended up with stitches. I permanently have a scar from that storm. Talk about a double smack in the face...
