feloniousq Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 we are in storm mode. that is what they are supposed to do. unfortunately, this time the se thread is getting cluttered more than usual and poor lookout cant handle them all i am sure. they are staff, and this is how the board works. i am not sure why everyone is so snippy, i mean we have a great storm coming up. the models are being consistent. the cold will be here. the moisture. i really have a hard time imagining this time the models making any huge shifts to take away the storm they [models] are almost all, iirc, showing some type of large, se winter storm with snow and ice. some posters should be lucky they havent been banned from posting or limited to just a few posts in the last hour or two. most of us dont like to read and sort through the unnecessary bickering. esp at the cusp of the storm most of us have been waiting on for years Still, coming in and telling respected long-time posters to "read more, post less" is counter-productive. They're trying to direct the movie without knowing the characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyespygawx Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Yippee! Excited for the Athens, GA area! 3 years in a row with measurable snow (and twice in 2010 with the Xmas snow)! Been following here since last year, joined this week finally! Had to come over here since the storm thread was getting all weenied out, sheesh. But love the analysis there. Had to jump in a say how excited I am, but how I can't STAND having to wait until tomorrow night! Ugh! Here's to the most in the SE getting some of what they want!

They're trying to direct the movie without knowing the characters. ok, now that actually is a valid point. they would not know our 'regulars' point taken! i am trying to post well and behave, but honestly i am so pumped and reading/typing so much i could have a post deleted and probably wouldnt even realize it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sluggo Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 I am under attack by moderate graupel and sunshine! Hope you get attacked by the setup of the 1899 Blizzard where Jacksonville, FLA got 4 inches of snow and Miami got an inch.....read about that storm a while back.......ice flows out of NOLA into the Gulf.

They're trying to direct the movie without knowing the characters. Eh, rules are rules no matter who you are. I just don't agree with some of the posts Ryz was deleting (Lookout tends to be on top of things and has let far more questionable posts slide). I'm all for making people actually contribute to the thread, but when posts are getting deleted left and right it starts to leave a bad taste in your mouth.

iceman Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 I'm not terribly excited about a bunch of MA mods who I've never seen before coming in and telling off posters and deleting posts in the main thread.

MBY is not really close to any large city so it is tough to get a specific anything for this area. sounds similar! thats ones reason i love the board. the atl stations NEVER talk about us, so we have to get our wx info somewhere. of course even if i lived in atl i would still come on here as the info is almost much better Man, I left for an hour to do somethings and this storm thread went to the crapper. hahah. Folks getting all kinds of pissed off. This storm really need to get here for some folks..... yeah, its too bad. saw your post in the other thread, that maps is looking nice, isnt it it would take a pretty significant shift or catastrophe to take at least some kind of snowfall from n ga and the upstate/sw nc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDU 0.32" surface temps never go above freezing, but 850's are at 2.2 and 3.7C, 12 and 18z Tues respectively when 0.19" falls, before and after that 850's <0C PGV 0.34" verbatim this is an all RN event here per the Euro, surface temps are above 0c for the duration, between 1 and almost 5C, 850's spike to 6C when the heaviest 6hr QPF falls, 18z Tues 0.15" ILM 0.53" all RN event also on this run, surface temps max out at 12.6C 12z Tues, with 850's well above 0C for the duration FAY 0.23" looks like mostly, if not all RN with surface temps only dipping to 0.5C during the heaviest QPF, and starting out at 2C, and ending around 1.2C. 850's spike to 5C quickly once the precip starts RWI 0.35" much closer to 0C at the surface compared to PGV, but not as cold as RDU. 850's spike to 5C during the heaviest QPF, with surface temps between 0.5 and 1.2C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This storm really need to get here for some folks..... Wow...over on the model thread, they seem to be really touchy. I know they're in storm mode, however, at this point, the models seem to be getting close w/ one another, but still seems to be wide disagreement in analysis w/ regards to upper level temps and and QPF's. I guess that's the norm since the surface low is just now forming in TX. The low over the NE (PA) seems to have strengthened, not really lifting all that fast, as more snow showers are being driven from WV into central NC. I got a weird feeling as to what is to unfold in the SE - GA & AL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
