Silver Meteor

That would be a big problem ... as it is right now the 7-day forecast for Western North Carolina is for rain every day, they sure as hell don't want to see anything from the tropics heading their way.

Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Newport/Morehead City NC 426 AM EDT Sun Aug 3 2025 Mid to late-week, the upper level pattern will begin to change as troughing develops over the TN Valley, and as ridging sets up from the western Atlantic north through eastern Canada. During this time, medium range guidance is showing a pretty good signal for a blocky pattern to develop across the eastern U.S. and western Atlantic. Of note, medium range deterministic and ensemble guidance suggest the Atlantic may begin to "wake up" so to speak as we move into the latter half of the week. While the main development region (MDR) will be a potential candidate for tropical activity, it is also worth noting that guidance is beginning to show a signal closer to home for low pressure development along the frontal boundary off the Southeast U.S. coast later in the week. As we often remind folks this time of year, please be careful not to lock into one run of one model, as significant run-to-run changes can be expected. At this point, the main takeaway is to be aware of the potential. Stay tuned for updates from the National Hurricane Center through the week in case this risk were to increase.

Humidity you say? Check out the dew point here in Eastern (Greenville) NC

Closing out the month here in Greenville, NC with the most hideous dew point I've ever seen:

Lame excuse for plagiarism.

The 1970s was feast or famine ... mostly famine as I remember.

Looking at radar this thing seems winding down a lot sooner than forecast. Was not the anticipated big deal here in Greenville, NC.

Nice app, and accurate for Pitt County (large semi-round county in center of orange/pink area around center of map) has been just that. A mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain today most of which has been sleet. Despite nice looking radar returns the total on the ground is measly.

Jumped from 32/21 to 30/30 with "light rain." Given the dew point half an hour ago I would have expected a better temperature drop. That "light rain" has already turned white on cars and grass. NWS has us at .25 to .50 of ZR for this event. Oh what a mess that would be!

Greenville looking sweet! (Though I don't believe for a minute we're going to get 7.7" of snow.)

Still waiting for first flake in Greenville despite radar returns overhead. Temperature pegged at 32F since 5:30am while the dewpoint has steadily fallen from 32 to 21 the last five hours with a NE breeze 10-20mph throughout.

Raleigh jackpot? Counting your chickens before they hatch eh.

Changed from what?

Hello from Greenville! Been following this storm since the very beginning when I didn't even consider the possibility of getting snow from it. But really, what a mess!

I was rooting for you all the way. MD/DC/DE was my home for over fifty years so even though I don't live there anymore I do follow all your storms and live them vicariously. My snow-loving friends back "home" are of course disappointed too (thank goodness I didn't hype this one up like some on social media do.) Am waiting here in eastern N.C. to see how my winter storm warning turns out, a slop-fest for sure but worthy of a Jeb walk anyway, haha. Best wishes to all of you (and no, I don't use AccuWeather, I just saved this from one of the forums a while back.)

Are you kidding? That's HIDEOUS.

It was made by Mattel. I was so impressed with it I bought stock in the company then later sold it for a good profit.

Oh boy does that bring back memories. Yes, I had an IntelliVision and I loved it. It was the best gaming machine of its time.

May seem a bit weird but I remember eating at the Palm in the late 1950s. Grandpa, who lived just off Foxhall Road in NW D.C., took us to dinner there once. What I most remember was discovering the "baseball cut" of sirloin. My god was it good!

By DC/BALT "HECS" what parameters are you using?

WOW on that map (that can be used anywhere.) Looking at other places it seems that map is old - which is also cool. Thank you.

March 5th - 9th in 1962. The Great Atlantic Coastal Storm. I remember it and saw the aftermath a month later. (Yes, I'm old as dirt - born 1951.) Far as I know a once in recorded history event?

Congratulations on the heavy snow. Over here in Greenville it's been nothing but light snow all evening as we're swimming in a river of the driest air of all the radars. A fine powder blowing around but scant little accumulation. It's pathetic.

I recommend Isaac Asimov's essay "The Relativity of Wrong." It's a fantastic short work and I'm sure you (and everyone else here) would love it.

How the heck can New Bern get 8" with Greenville up the road only 2"? I can't imagine a gradient like that here on the coastal plain for such a short distance but of course anything's possible. When's the last time you got 8" down there?
