Beware of the sneaky warm nose in the 750-800 mb range.  You won't find these on the conventional maps, and will have to look at soundings.  I've been bitten by that one too many times.  Of course, that's a chore for closer in.

I'm pretty disappointed too. Thought we had our first real shot up here. 

Boone is never out of the game.  A magical tongue of precip may find its way up there yet, a la Christmas Day 2010.

EE Rule in effect!  Storm cancel! 

The DWD-ICON model will be coming into range soon.

Welcome to North Fla!

MBY gets blanked in all scenarios, at least, LOL.

I'm in San Juan right now, anyways.  It's currently 81 with a wonderful sea breeze. 

If the 12z GFS miracle somehow verified, I might blow a gasket, though.  GSO got 30" on that run.  Did I move away one year too early???

Well, it can only go downhill from here after that 12z GFS run... 

We're basically in nowcasting range, anyways.  Throw the models out and go with your heart.  The models are of no use within 168 hours.

Wait...how did my quote turn into Superjames' quote?!  I know he's Superjames and all, but still....?

LOL, I'm not sure if I would still use this username I made years ago if I had to do it all over again, but it is what it is now and I'm not changing it.  Quite a descriptive username with my first name and year of birth, though, haha (I doubt that's a shocker to anyone).

Didn't - may have fugged up - watching weather and football all at once! :~)

 

BTW - Isn't SuperJames now down here in FL? If so, he's probably as antsy as I am ....

Yep, I'm in Tallahassee.  Very antsy, though I'm at least glad it's not hot anymore, though last week was on the warm side (70s/80s).

From the coast of Maine to the coast of Washington.  Forecasts with no discernible event horizon are the best!

I forecast snow for Miami!  Given enough time (many years/centuries), it will happen!

The Brazilian Model will save us.

I'm usually as optomistic as anyone. But you have to call a spade a spade. If we whiff at the end of next week and I see no reason why we wont, then it's gonna be tough with the February outlooks I've been reading. Bottom line is by next weekend we will be 5 weeks down and 7 to go. Never been shutout and definetly to early to make that call, but if we can score one event this year it's a win in my book. Was hoping wed score the first half of winter.

I'd still be fairly confident that Greensboro won't whiff, though.  That seems to be exceedingly rare, historically.  Of course, a 1-incher might be all that keeps it from being a total skunked, but I'd lean towards something before winter is done, still.

48 hr RGEM looking good!

The DGEX is onboard! 

I'm punting our December to Remember.

Feb is our month. Jan will go by with little if any winter weather outside of the mountains.

I'm glad we have a super forecaster on this board who can predict late January's weather with an entire month of lead time.

I didn't realize Talkweather was shut down.  Dang.

I'm gonna go with 0.0" for Tallahassee. 

As an outsider of sorts now, there does seem to be a lot of celebration for a system 9-11 days away which hasn't even shown up consistently in the modeling.

Of course, I can't lie, I'd be excited and ready to be heartbroken if I had skin in the game.

I agree but I thought we were suppose to be negative in this thread. 

The only negative we need is that it's 10 days away, LOL.

Not only am I living in Florida now, but I'll also be on vacation in Puerto Rico the first week of January during the fantasy Euro D10 megastorm.  I think I'd be melting down if I still lived in NC and missed it while on vacation, haha.

At least I got to see a lot of snow during my vacation last year in Flagstaff and at the rim of the Grand Canyon.

Can't wait for the massive SE Ridge on the 00z EPS.

GEFS still showing snowy/icy potential in the day 10+.  Even a blind squirrel finds a nut...right?

Give me e12 and shift it 100 miles north and call it reality.  DC digs out from another 20-incher.

Fab Feb! 

Lol.  I knew I should have looked it up.  Wrong color.

 

Gold, white, navy blue.  Could I have been any further off?

UNCG

I am in my last semester at UNCG's M.A. Applied Economics program.  There's a good chance I will be moving out of this area once I graduate, though.

You can be forgiven about not knowing our school colors.  There isn't exactly a lot of school spirit at UNCG.  Our basketball team can't even compete in the SoCon.

Notre Dame? Oregon? TCU? Lol...

At least she stayed close to home. She luvs her daddy! I am glad to have my freshman about an hour away as well. Seeing her every 3-4 weeks keeps momma happy and I can make sure she doesnt trash my car!

Could be UNC Charlotte.

Guess I'll post one since this is bumped and I haven't posted one in years.

This is from last summer when I hiked up Calloway Peak.  This was actually from the prior day, though, when we did a warmup hike to a waterfall in the vicinity (forget which one).

And this is from a couple weeks ago at the rim of the Grand Canyon (right behind us, but the fog and snow makes it so you can't see anything).  It was really cold there with temperatures around 30 and the wind ripping all day with snow showers.  Of course, I was dumb and didn't pack my winter coat.
