  1. I lived in Charlotte during that one and had 9” in NoDa. 5 miles south of me the totals were well over a foot! That was an awesome storm!
  2. Some traffic cams in NC. First is Concord. Second is Salisbury.
  3. Had some sleet and freezing rain for about 10mins just now in Concord. Has stopped.
  4. Some mix of everything here in SW Concord. 28/12dp
  5. voice of reason. Finally someone speaks some real facts!!
  6. Why is everyone sold on no snow for NC? and I don’t care about trends or what the models say. With so many pieces to this puzzle there’s no reason to throw in the towel. Maybe that’s my inner child speaking, but have a little hope. Come tomorrow night, if things are as sh”::! as they are right now model wise then I’ll concede with the rest of you.! :-)
  7. Because I’m old I can say from experience that setups like this will verify with mostly snow in Winston/Gso… snow to ice to snow in CLT and about half and half in RDU with Durham of course cashing in pretty good compared to Raleigh. That’s just how these go and most of you know that. Screw the models and just enjoy a good ol’ fashioned NC winter storm!!!
  8. Concord with 110,000 people is pretty competitive with Lilly now. Rock Hill has Winthrop University so Charlotte is very competitive with the cities you mention around Raleigh. And then there's LKN which is a monster on its own.... Good call though!!
  9. Was not expecting the almost 2" rain imby today. Flood advisory for Northern Charlotte and NE Suburbs expire in an hour or so. When we finally have a week of 85+ with straight sunshine, just wow! Hate humidity tho
  10. Raining and 37 in Concord NC.... I saw the "confirmed reports" of sleet above and almost broke a leg getting the window up... then realized they were from hours ago. And probably not real anyway.
  11. THIS.HAPPENS.EVERY.SINGLE. WINTER. Remember last year how the models were so wack? And ended up with two 3" snow events imby... stop freaking out.
  12. Was only 6yrs old and can remember it being SOOO COLD!! Seems like my grandmother got snowed in with us too! Lived in Rockwell in Rowan County att.
  13. Well... can't wait for the ensembles to flip back in our favor!!! Love reading weenie posts and especially those who have the knowledge to explain them... weeee
  14. I remember when I was living In Bucks County PA just above Philly we had a super wet wet snow event on Halloween day I believe. Leaves hadn't all fallen and I can remember the limbs of the trees cracking and it literally sounded lime a gun fight outside for hours. I enjoyed it up until that. Then was a hit freaked out. Not to mention it cost 3k+ for cleanup afterwards.
  15. If your interested in thundersnow. The Santa Fe Junction Kansas City Railcam on YouTube has awesome thundersnow at 04:53.30 CST
  16. So the energy around texas and Arkansas l, and the energy popping up in the gulf...I should expect all that to dry up as the day progresses? Wow. Interesting.
  17. Agree 100000% I love thunderstorms but abhor the heat and humidity. I would do well at about 5000ft in our mountains. I want to always have a breeze with days no warmer then 68 and summer nights around 50. That's my perfect summer wx.
  18. WBTV was about it last night but this morning AL Conklin said maybe the mountains would see a FEW flakes mix in with rain. Lolol I'm over this winter... unless something big comes our way I am signing off.
  19. WBTV surprised me this evening. Has precip starting around 1-3am Sunday morning. Showed 2 models both with some wintry precip for CLT. No mention of amounts.
  20. Ditto. However by Saturday I expect to see my perennials start to creep a bit. I mean 65 2 days straight. Heck its already 58 right now.
  21. Good lord.. we are still just a bit less then 100hrs from onset! Hello?? Have you forgot last week's insane back and forth the models were doing regarding Friday's event? Hell, the Mets in Charlotte didn't get the forecast right until halfway through the storm.. lol..
  22. I'm in Cabarrus County right where the 2.3" was reported. I measured in 4 different places. 2.7"..2.9"...3.1"... and 3.3.. for 3inches. Beautiful event period!!
