My step daughter lived in San Antonio for a few years and 1 time they got down to 25 and their pipes froze and bust in the kitchen wall. Very poorly insulated down there. Yep, I have some friends down there and they are hearing a lot of pipe bursting going on down there on the news. Tough situation to be in, with frigid temps, no water and ice/snow covered roads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strongwxnc Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 It’s the absolute worst outside tonight. 38° with heavy rain. Also my elementary school does an afterschool program, and we just dismissed. Kids on a bus in the dark in the rain. Not fun. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had been forecast to have over a foot of snow but it’s been nothing but a couple inches sleet. I’m sure cliff diving would be similar on here given the buildup and expectation they had. It is falling on a base of 6” of snow and 18 degrees, sigh Same for my folks in Cincy. The NAM warm nose was right there for all to see on the models a couple days ago. I guess its playing out that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PantherJustin Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Can Someone explain their best guess at what a “Futurecast” “In-House Model” is? Bc I’m Convinced it’s programmed to show nothing but rain no matter the setup? I heard it used to be RPM but now idk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpg2 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 This is just bs. Watching my friends across the entire country get the motherload of wintry weather and I'm sitting here considering buying floaties and refilling my dog's anxiety medicine needed during t-storms. Even my San Diego friends got stuck in a snowstorm driving to Baja last month. I have had ZILCH. It's snowing in dang Mississippi even! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magpiemaniac Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 My sister in middle TN called our mother in east TN to tell her that she was going to get “2 to 3 inches of ice” today. Because my mother was concerned, I told her that she probably meant sleet instead of freezing rain. I’m not sure my sister knows the difference.

jpbart Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 My brother in Austin TX got 5” of snow and is looking at lows of 11 degrees with no power. First time he ever shoveled snow since moving to TX. Meanwhile I have booming thunder storms with my low being warmer than his high for tomorrow. Is it me or is the weather getting weirder every year? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jburns Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Raleigh NWS is getting a bit sloppy. December 2020 Central NC Climate Summary By Phillip Badgett and James Danco Number of days with high temperatures at or below 32 °F this month: Greensboro: 19 Raleigh: 18 Fayetteville: 15 Um...no. Maybe that should read low temperatures at or below. I’m not even sure that would be right. It also included this ob. Greensboro tied a daily record snowfall of a trace on December 7. This tied the previous record of a trace of snowfall set in 1995. Now that is just plain sad. Been keeping records for over 100 years and your record snowfall on a December day is a trace. I want to cry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AirNelson39 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 I’d love to see .5 of freezing rain here in Hickory but I just don’t see it happening. All the models have over done every single winter event this season here. I see us getting a couple hours of 31 degree freezing rain then the rest of the storm 32-33 degree rain. I think we’ll be lucky to even see .1 in the Catawba, lower Caldwell, lower Burke, Alexander county areas. Looks to be a much better change along the border counties with temps around 30 much of the event. I think the trend of model accumulation/accrual maps over hyping storms in this area continues. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have friends that have been there(Texas, LA, OK, MO) for a week, rescuing dogs, cats, birds, horses and other livestock. People shouldn’t have animals if they can’t take care of them. The kill pens are horrible places under normal circumstances. Now it’s unprecedented how disgusting it is and rescue’s are beyond capacity.
