Snowacane Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Anyone notice that all the mets are silent on the board now. The mets did fine on this, they warned that it was a difficult set up, once the low formed 100 miles S of where it was supposed to we were screwed, least you saw a hell of a lot of snow on Christmas.

Brick Tamland Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 It tried to snow on Christmas day, but no accumulation whatsoever. By early the next morning, it finally started to stick. My foot became infected and I had a fever and couldn't sleep. I was miserable all night. I was alone, it was cold, I was sick, had no pain meds and to top it off, Chapel Hill still got screwed. Worst storm ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Rain Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Man, the whiny shtick is getting old out of a few people and I haven't been on the site for all that long.

CaryWx Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 This is the banter thread, right? You have to watch the 8hr (yes 8hrs) radar from WRAL. It is sadistically laughable how the moisture just dies as it tries to move into the Triangle. Nothing whiney there. Just a sad state of affairs. http://www.wral.com/weather/doppler5000/?m=centralnc&p=8hrloop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEGa Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 FoothillsNC posted in the Obs thread a little while ago. they are probably exhausted and need some rest! its been a wild, intense couple of days for them. its about over for most of the ones in n ga (except maybe dawson, he might be in line for some ice) i can barely keep my eyes open, but i cant go to sleep yet since we have some icing going on lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a sad state of affairs. http://www.wral.com/...ralnc&p=8hrloop Like I said before, this is how it usually is here. We get lucky and have maybe one good snow a winter, and that is usually from a low bombing off the coast. If it comes from the west or south, it usually hits a wall right at the Triangle.

WidreMann Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 I saw what appeared to be a snowflake gently floating upwards. Not only will it not snow, but what few snowflakes do make it to the ground actually go back up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Tamland Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Foothills was so optimistic about this thing. Even Allan Huffman and Matthew East called for a couple of inches and some ice. I really thought we had a shot, but looks like we won't get even a trace of anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moose4 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 irony (n.) - having to drive to the mountains to jump off a cliff due to a screwjob, but not being able to get there due to snow on the highways. BTW, something's finally getting here on radar. Whether it'll hit the ground, or take one look, realize it's in the Triangle, and then float right back up into the cloud? That's still open for judgement. RAH point forecast for Durham is still saying 1/2" today, 1-2" + .1" ice tonight, .1" ice tomorrow. Certainly not earth-shattering, but it's still snow. I'm just stunned I finally lived to see a storm where Columbia (where I lived for 7 1/2 years) got more snow than Durham did! I imagine most of SC is pretty much paralyzed right now.
