Meow Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Indeed.... good luck getting your 6-8"! Rain and snow with emphasis of snow is what the local news outlets are saying for Craven Co. I don't listen to local mets anymore than I do wx weenies here. Some combo of the two with slight attention to the short term models is usually best. Meh.

Cold Rain Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 The 12Z and 18Z GFS really dampens the hopes for any substantial, sustained warm-ups through the end of those runs. In fact, there appear to be several more opportunities for storms throughout the period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nao is going to head back positive before the end of the month I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Tamland Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 It's going to be very interesting to see what happens tomorrow. NWS and WRAL make it seem like it will do nothing. But the models keep shoing more precip here than they are forecasting. Not sure what the difference is, but this storm is going to either end up being nothing and a big fail, or the models are going to be right and the forecasts are going to be a big bust.

Brick Tamland Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Of course, I don't know why we believe any of the models or forecasts here when it comes to snow after Jan 2000. Most of the time when it comes to snow here, it's just a big guess with what will really happen. You never know until it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the time when it comes to snow here, it's just a big guess with what will really happen. You never know until it happens. I agree with that. The massive fail on predicting that one in 2000 is why I take their forecasts with a grain of salt now when it comes to snow. I remember how they originally said we'd be lucky to get an inch or two, only to keep changing it every few hours. They basically had to say then that they had no clue how bad it was going to eventually get when all was said and done while it was still coming down.

WidreMann Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Looks like it's over for central and eastern NC. Precip cutoff 50 miles SW of the Triangle. Flurries and freezing drizzle. This reminds me of those storms in the summer that would kind of get going over the deep south but fizzle by the time they got here. I got used to those, I guess I should get used to these.
