Or any on air weather personality. You throw out 4-5 inches and the storm only gives you 1, Everyone is on your twitter moaning and griping. You throw out 1 inch totals and slowly work up to 4 inch totals the day of the storm.....only weather nerds like us on this forum give him crap. And in his favor, alot of these models that toss out 4-5 inches don't end up verifying. This one just so happened to Anyone is welcome to go to school and become a met and then forecast these snow storms in the SouthEast. It is incredible hard here. Also, just look at the great stuff said on his twitter and facebook if he busts the wrong way. I can only imagine some of the things that are said to his kids at school as well. Yes I know it's part of the job of being a tv met but I wouldn't want his job at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yotaman Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Wow, we went from an Advisory with up to 1 inch to Warning with 2-4 inches. Quite a change overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowinnc Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 We pretty much have flurries in North Central Wake County. Can one of the experts please tell me that we legit have some good stuff coming because this is just depressing. The snow shield must be over our neighborhood.

There's no way that yellow on the radar doesn't give you heavy snow within the next 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been reading everything and everything says that we should be getting moderate to heavy snow but we aren’t. I would say it’s light to moderate at best. It’s just bizarre.
