  1. Raleigh will probably see token flakes and a glaze. I would suspect the decnt accumulations are most likely from Roxboro through Roanoke Rapids and EC through southeastern VA.
  2. I am ready to move on to severe season being nothing will make up for the screw job on 1/31. Once you get past Valentine's Day it gets a lot harder to get anything worthwhile in most years.
  3. I am ready for severe season since we couldn't get the job done in a near perfect setup this winter IMBY. We aren't going to make up for that this year so might as well move on.
  4. I am looking forward to my trip up at the end of February and hoping the snowy weather holds up. Of course we just had that epic storm where I was and I was in the screw zone dry slot (we only got 4 inches). I did chase to where some of the big amounts occurred though because I wasn't going to sit through that nonsense. The amazing thing for NC is it was in the teens for this storm with 20:1 ratios and better in some cases. Here is a pic from that chase in the FGEN band. See you all soon!
  5. I think next winter the models will be re-programmed with the reality that it doesn't snow in Wake County.
  6. Alright well fuck it. Here is the 18z Euro:
  7. And they are already getting brutalized in the comments.
  8. It feels almost worse than December 2000 did in some ways. I am sorry that happened to you for sure.
  9. I have to give @NorthHillsWx credit for jumping into this one after the dry slot event. I wish i had that approach.
  10. Those under 3 inches did not verify the warning. The original forecast also busted but that doesn't impact meeting criteria or not.
  11. It is the feeling of being called to coach a middle school championship game after losing the superbowl. I am thinking Roxboro could pick up an inch or two IF it is barely cold enough.
  12. You do have a point there. Perceptions change quickly when you get a situation like we just had.
  13. The next chance at a major event I would think wouldn't be until the mid to late 2030's.
  14. If it isn't 6+ I don't want it anyway but none the less too many boundary layer issues and cold chasing with this one. The GFS has been horrendous with every event.
  15. Although all of Wake was a screw zone this time for the most park lol.
  16. We got the FIFA snow prize. Anyway here is my full collection of photos from the chase and inside the screw zone: https://www.facebook.com/media/set?vanity=jgmusic22&set=a.10113918879695429
  17. We will be fighting the sun angle then but it is certainly possible. For me it has to be 6+ or bust after the dry slot.
  18. Even though we got a few inches at the end I am still mad about it. It is a once in 20+ year opportunity blown. I really can't get excited about any other events unless they are big enough to make up for it.
  19. I just wonder how long we will have to wait now for a 6+ event in Raleigh itself.
  20. It is a minor event. Probably not worth it.
  21. They have to be 6+ to make up for it.
  22. I woke up today still mad about the dry slot.
  23. Yeah I have mixed emotions of yes the few inches we got were nice and the chase was fun but at the same time missing out on the big one hurts. Where I am at for the remainder of this winter onward unless it is a storm that will make up for the dry slot I have no interest in it.
