Lanie Pope goes with a 10-30% chance of accumulating snow over the WXII coverage area.  Last time I checked their coverage area includes a few tall thingies called mountains!?!  She may want to update that slightly for the 11pm broadcast.

She is being conservative, but I like the way things look for us in the triad. Especially Greensboro north and west of there. The last time I saw over a foot was when I lived in High Point, during the Feb 26-27 2004 winter storm with 16 inches. Will this storm produce? Maybe..... only time will tell. 

No power here in far northeastern Guilford county. Estimated restoration is Monday or Tuesday. I do believe Duke energy sent alot of there crews south thinking it wouldn't be that bad here. I have drove around for miles and haven't seen one line truck.

Most of Guilford county is without power. I drove around and numerous trees across roads. 

I was driving down hwy 150 northern Guilford county multiple trees down almost white out conditions

Am 15 miles NE of Greensboro. I estimate had a gust 45-50mph  and this tree fell. Heard another one fall a few seconds later.

I am wondering since the storm is speeding up a lot more than forecasted. Will it stay more on the western side of the NHC cone? Just looking at the HRRR its past the place it first initialized. 

Imagine if you had cancer and only months to live... what better way to go out than to be at Mexico beach on a beach front home. Have a great last meal, good liquor and maybe some other stuff. Also facebook live the entire event. That would be one hell of a way to go. (Of course if you were close to death anyway).

Bro dont even go there he has a reputation in SE forum. My best advice is to walk away. No need to get banned

Everybody breaks a law every now and then. Did you know it's illegal to mow your grass towards the road (NC).  Also you can still whip your wife on the steps of the Durham courthouse on Sunday. So my men out there with a disobedient wife you can start whipping

Ok the story behind this pic is. I saw my 1992 cub scout trophy floating away. I jumped into the river and saved it. You can call me a hero if you want too. #hero 

(The shirt is ripped because of the raging flood waters)

Ok so they broke the record in 1877. I would say more than likely this is easily a 300 year event. So there is a .33% chance of this hapenning every year for the next 300 years. Me winning the lottery or a mega tusnami wiping out the eastern seaboard in the next 300 years is like .00001%. Am sorry, but it's all about numbers bro. A minor event in the large scale of time.

 Did the best I could. Took 45 minutes to make it less than 1.95mb. Approaching 5 inches here NE of Greensboro

The recorded time on this earth that we have is small. The level of Katrina is considered great in current thinking. if you wanna see a serious event go here. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Molokai_Volcano

katrina didn't flood the entire earth, low end event 

First off don't blasphemy the lord in mocking his great power. Second if the levees would have never failed it would only be remembered in south Mississippi.

In the bible of our lord. It rained 40 days and 40 nights. Maybe what SE NC got like 2-3 days. It's a flood but nothing like our lord did. Low end event.

There is a story behind this scooter. It was stolen from a store from someone I know who is a part of this site. I have to get more information first, but I'll let you know soon

The dollar general in Wilmington was looted and the management was like let them be. It could have changed by now, but was posted on the Twitter account. (Sheriffs office)

Yes I will agree this is a significant event for NC, but with that being said If you live near a river or the coast line this is to be expected a few times in your lifetime. There is going to be massive flooding. I dont know am just not impressed yet. That opinion could change over the next few days  but so far am like meh...

No matter what happens the sun will still rise torrommow. Not like this is a extinction type event omg

Man has balls of steel. Alot braver than me no doubt. His luck will eventually run out. Let's just hope its not this time. 

I was gonna post my thoughts, but the heat is on in here. I'll just come back later. Am on thin ice already.
