    It's like a big middle finger

    NE Durham a dusting of tiny specs

    NE Durham, it's snowing if you squint real hard.

    It's never a question of "if" the storm will bust for the triangle, just "how".

    In northeast Durham it literally looks like the sun might peek out at any moment.

    I think I used to work with wildre's ex-gf

    literally nothing else interesting happening here except cold rain

    It's like watching the same movie with the same dialogue every year. When my friends and employer start freaking out about the big storm five days out, I sigh. When it's 3 days out, I come over here. At two days out, I remember that nothing matters until the event. And that the event will probably be cold rain. (and somehow I always make my very first click into the storm thread right after brick has commented indignantly about something. Always my first sign that there will be no snow.)

    Also see https://old.reddit.com/r/nyc/new/ for some insane videos.

    Check out the NYC metro sub and especially https://old.reddit.com/r/nyc/new/ to see the insanity of what is happening now.

    Had to drive from NE Durham down to work right near RDU for a power outage related emergency (off Page rd). Do not recommend. Traffic lights were at least working all the way there, but rotten visibility. Back home now, flakes still falling but it sounds like rain in there too.

    34.9 in slightly rural NE Durham. Hobbyist weather station.

    It's been a while for me. When is the time it usually all falls apart for us? Is it the late night runs tonight?
  15. thess
    Totally depends on what type of people you feel more comfortable around. Which will lead me into regional and demographic stereotypes, and no good will come of that. I preferred the Escape out of Manhattan over the Breakaway out of NOLA in all aspects (ship, port, fellow passengers). But it seems like I got lucky and my commute from LGA to the port was pretty painless, so that helped.

    Also depends on your departure port. A cruise out of Manhattan (even on a mainstream line like NCL) gets you a different crowd than, say, NOLA. (And yes I’ve done both, recently.)

    Just a lurker. I noticed there aren’t many RDU posters for this event. Did we pretty much bust already? I see a lot of conflicting maps so no idea what’s going on at this point.
  18. thess
    Yes. If it's not an airport code, it's usually a weather office. RDU = airport, RAH = weather.

    My bad. I'm a transplant (although going on 11 years now), but Greensboro still tends to be "that one little town that gets the good stadium rock concerts" to me.

    I don't know anything about how television weather networks work, but I assume in edge cases like this they prioritize large viewership metros over anything else. Whatever it takes to keep the most people watching. But maybe I am overly cynical.

    Just gonna say I don't think this hobby is entirely healthy for some folks.

    I opened the back door in Durham/Southpoint a little while ago and got a blast of *wet* coldish air in the face. So weird. It didn't even feel that cold, although it's supposedly just above 32 around here.

    Random time-killing question, do a lot/many of you guys have home weather stations? I always wonder when people are reporting obvs.
  24. thess
    Haha, I don't remember that one, must have blanked it out of my memory. But I do have a document I keep for the holidays, for random info from one year to the next (like grocery store hours, what dishes I cooked for Thanksgiving that people ate/didn't eat, shopping lists, etc). When I opened it this year I read at the very top: "STOP FOLLOWING SNOWSTORMS IT JUST MAKES YOU SAD". I don't remember typing that but maybe it was because of this Feb thing you mention.

    =D I haven't followed a TON of storms here so what I'm about to say may be gibberish, but it feels like there are more areas in play for this event than usual, so there is a wider range of IMBY requests from town names I don't recognize many states away.
