  1. Not only that, but Judah Cohen is talking about a disruption of the SPV. So we got that possibly. Polar Vortex. Phase 8 MJO. SSW. Incoming pattern change. Discuss amongst yourselves. I have to go put a new aluminum double pass radiator in my 93 Land Cruiser. Anyone feel like giving me a hand? Free beer and Blanton's. LOL

  2. Does it count if it hits the cart path?
    i shot my first even par round this past summer. I'm a 3 handicapper
    That's funny. Me too. I don't play as much as I used to. Marriage, kids, two (staring at a third) back surgeries. I haven't touched the clubs in almost two years. I'm sure I'd probably cripple myself for weeks if I did.

  3. Euro Weeklies come in pretty much as expected.  Has western ridge / eastern trough pattern beginning in week 3 (Feb 5-12) and continues through early March.  +NAO.  Looks northern stream dominant like we've had most of the winter.  Precip is below normal weeks 3 to 4...near normal thereafter thru week 6
    Do we trust the weeklies? They haven't been that great this winter.
  4. I hear you Orangeburg. My top snowfalls are:
    17/ Feb 2004
    15/ Jan 2000
    15/ March 1993
    So since we are breaking records this winter; just once I want to expierence a 2 Footer. Think Frosty had a 19 inch couple years ago. Jburns had 19 on that Feb 2004, Raleigh think had 22 in Jan 2000. So Im not alone in a quest to join the 2 foot club. Not sure anyone was around down east in I beleive spring 1980 they where right at 2 foot mark.
    I was 10 years old for that storm. We had 32" at our house in the south end of Camden County. Two weeks prior to that we had 17.5".

  5. this might be a once in a lifetime set up... we all might set records (given mine is 28” in the Blizzard of 73, that’s really saying something).
    Doubt we set one here. Officially KECG is 25" March 1980. Our home at the time was 32" in southern Camden County with the same storm. The next highest is 17.5" which fell two weeks prior to that in February 1980, two days after my birthday.
  6. Bands seem to be blossoming just SW of the area. Just went for a nice, long jebwalk. It's just beautiful outside...about 2.5" on the ground.

    Mesoscale Discussion 0031  NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK  0909 PM CST Wed Jan 17 2018  Areas affected...The Outer Banks area of North Carolina into the  Tidewater area of southeast Virginia  Concerning...Heavy snow   Valid 180309Z - 180715Z  SUMMARY...Heavy snow rates in excess of 1 inch per hour, including  occasional heavier convective bursts, may develop across the North  Carolina Outer Banks area, possibly into portions of the Virginia  Tidewater, during the 11 PM to 4 AM time frame.  DISCUSSION...A significant mid-level trough is forecast to continue  pivoting east of the southern Appalachians during the next few  hours.  As it does, models suggest that it may take on more of a  neutral to negative tilt, accompanied by an increasingly better  defined lower/mid tropospheric cyclonic circulation center across  the piedmont through coastal areas.  This appears likely to  contribute to a consolidating area of upward vertical motion, with  considerable strengthening by the 05-08Z time frame, centered across  the Outer Banks area of North Carolina.  Aided by dynamic cooling, cold advection and melting precipitation,  thermodynamic profiles near immediate coastal areas are expected to  cool entirely below freezing, supporting snow or a changeover to  snow.  Rapid Refresh forecast soundings indicate that lift may  become maximized within the dendritic growth layer for several  hours, supporting snow rates in excess of 1 inch per hour, in the  presence of precipitable water between .5 and .75 inches.  At least  some convective enhancement appears possible leading to occasional  heavier bursts of snow, before diminishing/spreading offshore after  08-09Z.  It is possible similar snow rates could impact portions of the  southeast Virginia Tidewater, but the most prolonged/heaviest snow   appears most likely to the south, across the Outer Banks area  near/north of Cape Hatteras.  ..Kerr.. 01/18/2018

    I noticed some deeep blues on radar headed this way.
