  1. Wow that’s a southwest trend and trending to a sharper trough further west as well. That would make me think future runs will show earlier phasing and even more westward shifts
  2. Agree to an extent, but if this thing goes bombs away as a dynamic system, as progged, these are the ones that rapidly drag down the colder 850 mb air and “manufacture” their own cold west of the track. This is not a slider type storm with cold air chasing moisture if it’s going to town, as it has the potential to do. Very very very few big central NC snows begin as pure snow
  3. Cold chasing moisture. Definitely not what we need
  4. I think my point is you’re assuming every OT game is an offensive shootout when many are 9-9 or 12-12 low scoring contests where playing an extra quarter is likely to result in not much scoring. At some point in football your professional defense needs to earn their paycheck and stop the other team. There had to be a winner and the bills had their chance. Just hold them to a dang FG and by your logic they’d win bc they’d score a TD. I absolutely don’t think playing another quarter of football would’ve been beneficial besides likely causing more injuries to the team going to the conference championship putting them at a disadvantage going in
  5. While I agree to some extent, your assessment assumes the other team cannot field a defense thar can keep the other team out of the end zone. All they needed was one stop and they couldn’t get it. It’s a 2 sided game not just offense. I like the revised format where a FG doesn’t win it like it used to on your first possession (start with good field position drive 15 yards kick a 50 yarder) but, last night is a perfect example, if your defense cannot keep the other team out of the end zone when they absolutely need it, that team does not deserve to win
  6. We are at 5 days and have ensemble support in addition to the op solutions for several model suites. This is officially a threat. Happy tracking this week!
  7. Even after the nightmare December this winter is looking like our best since 2017-18. I know I know the bar is low but I’ve enjoyed the extended January cold and snow events. We’ve now had 4 snowfalls at my house, two TR events, 0.20” Thursday night, and 3.20” Friday into Saturday. Hoping for another this weekend. Already have two verified warning criteria events and an advisory event (verified the winter storm warning with the early week system as we did receive 0.25” of ice). Hectic couple weeks
  8. Excellent call map. Pretty awesome it looks like every county in the state received at least some wintry weather from the system
  9. Briefly got above freezing yesterday, high of 34.2. This morning was the coldest of the year and coldest in several years. 16.2 was our morning low. Currently 18.9
  10. There’s no telling how long it would take to get out of my neighborhood after a 32 inch snowstorm
  11. Probably worth noting the gulf low is still there on Tuesday and Wednesday. It kinda flattens the wave as it heads east from a pretty stout system in SE Texas. It starts as a cutoff low in the SW, pushes east, deepens, then dampens out moving over the gulf coast. If it stays a bit stronger it could possibly trend a bit further north. Worth watching at least before the main event this weekend
  12. Probably beats the ‘93 superstorm. Drives a nasty squall line through Florida like that one did too
  13. Yea I’ll take the hurricane sitting over Morehead City with likely 25 inches of blizzard in Raleigh and cash out this winter
  14. This is one of my favorite snows ever. The emotional roller coaster leading up, then a small snow the day before, all day in 20’s, then a period of heavy dry snow and absolutely no mixing start till finish, now cold and cloudy the day after. What an awesome event, especially after all these years of letdowns. Not huge totals here but it sounds like it snowed everywhere in the state and most if not all of central NC hit warning criteria. Happy happy happy. About to go out for my 3rd walk of the day
  15. Anyone else shovel their snow into shaded areas so the piles last longer?
  16. Woke up to a beautiful winter scene outside. Measured 3.2” average though there was more variability than normal, I’m guessing due to powder and winds. Probably lost a few tenths to compaction overnight but we hit warning criteria and I can tell you every bit of it is on the roads too. Deep winter!
  17. We are going to enjoy this one for awhile. Just a great lead up with the traditional southern roller coaster of emotions but we are in heavy snow and the lower 20’s. Can’t say that’s happened too many times in my life here
  18. I wish I could park my house under this band for the rest of the winter. RIPPING
