strongwxnc Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 HAHAH! Classic Skip Some NWS forecaster who is responsible for Pine Bluff and southern Arkansas just saw the 0z NAM 24 hour precip chart and just spilled his coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Tamland Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Sounds like the game is about to change based on the model trends lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sluggo Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Sounds like the game is about to change based on the model trends lately. Temporarily downplaying most all the earlier models, well, it seems as though my weird gut feeling about this storm may be coming to pass and that is: a major icing event for central NC.....not what I was wanting to see, personally. I was lurking around Monday for the first time when some models were calling for 5-7" sn here and it didn't seem right for that to happen for a low forming in S Texas and traveling all the way along the GoM here for a all sn event. If we get that 2-4" of sn, hope it is dry snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Tamland Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I saw Matthew East is calling for 2 to 4 inches of snow and up to .25 of ice on top. Said it is very, very tricky here, though. I don't know why some would call that a non event for this area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WidreMann Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 And the models seem to be trending for the precip to come in stronger and to the north. Not the 00z NAM. It gives us the finger in the worst sort of way. It's entirely possible that all we get is a few rain showers Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chapelhillwx Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 You always have rain showers over you, Eeyore. Well, he could be right. NAM shows nothing for us really. Not sure I buy that with the -10 omega right over us, but the solution is certainly on the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Tamland Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Yeah, I just don't buy the precip right now on the NAM. And Foothills sounds so optomistic on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jburns Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Yeah, I just don't buy the precip right now on the NAM. And Foothills sounds so optomistic on this. Foothills is not talking about your area. SW part of the state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Tamland Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Foothills is not talking about your area. SW part of the state. It would be nice if he actually said what part of the state he was talking about and be more specific. That's the thing I hate. You can't ask about your backyard, but you can talk about it all you want, and it makes things confusing if you just say this run is great but don't go into specifics of what and where.

Mr Bob Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Not the 00z NAM. It gives us the finger in the worst sort of way. It's entirely possible that all we get is a few rain showers Tuesday. Without a doubt, NCEP is focused on building Widre up then just ripping him to shreds before each potential snow event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feloniousq Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Foothills is optimistic, but that's because the NAM still shows his BY in 6" of snow. For anyone north and east of Charlotte, either the models are wrong or we're looking at flurries at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realize that this is the banter thread, but please don't incite his anguish more than it is already. It's not pleasant for the rest of us to read.

snowforme Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I'm still scarred from the 2002 ice storm. If the RDU area gets no more than .25" of ice should we be good are can that cause a mess? I'm already trying to think of places we can go if we lose power. Having three unhappy kids makes for two unhappy parents. Please someone tell me that I shouldn't be worried!

Brick Tamland Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 The way the threads are modertaed is really a bunch of bull. No consistency at all. I guess it all depends on who you are when it comes to what is allowed. Seriously, I get all optimistic, but then it looks like this is going to be a big fail. If people are going to do a play by play of the models, they need to give specifics of where they are talking about things being good or bad. It gets confusing when you have Foothills saying this is a great trend and others saying RDU gets nothing and it's time to kill this thing.

Cold Rain Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I saw Matthew East is calling for 2 to 4 inches of snow and up to .25 of ice on top. Said it is very, very tricky here, though. I don't know why some would call that a non event for this area. I'm predicting the Triangle sees less than .25 inches of precipitation, all frozen, but mostly ZR on top of one inch of snow. There is no way we will get warning criteria weather here. None. Better to go ahead and look down the road and see if we can see past the Nina torch.
