  1. Summer wants to make it clear that although it doesn't want to see us all completely parched and dying of thirst, that doesn't mean it suddenly likes us.
  2. We were on the edge of the storm enough that it stayed really bright, which just made it clear just how insanely windy it was. We also got a nice burst of hail.
  3. As I said to my brother yesterday afternoon: Two men will be in the field. One will get a foot, and the other an inch.
  4. That would explain why so many were so skeptical of the severity of the dry slot showing up on the short range models.
  5. To get more serious than my earlier cliff-diving melodrama: it seems appropriate that it's impossible to capture the snow dancing in the streelight on the phone camera. Not mine, at least. This is a gift meant to be enjoyed in the moment, with our embodied senses. And it is a precious gift, here. I thank God for it.
  6. We're getting the fluffiest flakes we've gotten all day, right now.
  7. 2010 was pretty good, too, though that wasn't as windy. I'm just glad that one of my three winters in Maryland was the snowiest winter in recorded history.
  8. It's gonna be tight, I think. It may just miss us.
  9. I really hope that band that's over Goldsboro pivots around just enough to nail us here.
  10. Enjoy! Love to see my old stomping grounds get hit like this.
  11. I'm used to missing to the east followed by missing to the west. Missing in both directions at the same time is extra special. But no worries, I hear the radar is filling in. Maybe overnight, we'll quadruple our totals. Btw, what's 4 times 0?
  12. Do people actually exist outside my village? Is this "snow" story just some manufactured dream useful for mollifying a restless population held under close scrutiny and manipulated into buying a false reality? "You are Number Six." I am not a number! I am a free man! "HAHAHAHAHA"
  13. Finally, some flakes in the Swift Creek area.
  14. There's also this: Wife just texted me in the same room
  15. Is Raven Rock in the dryslot? Just weighing my cliff options...
  16. They have "snow" in south Florida, too, though.
  17. Posting this in the Cliff Diving thread is just mean
  18. Even if we manage a few, and it ends up more than we typically have in a given storm, this is a lost opportunity. My kids are 10 and almost-8. I would love for them to have that one big one in the core of their childhood that they remember forever. And the chances are slipping away. In the grand scheme, it's a relatively small hardship. But it's still a bummer.
