    Good chance of rain in the forecast for Sunday. Probably the best chance we have until almost the end of the month. Let the rain dance begin.

    I drove down to Little River, SC yesterday to pick up our new dog and actually rain through a brief rain shower on my way back. It was officially 0.01”, but that’s 0.01” more than I’ve seen in a month. I had forgotten what rain was like.

    It’s 94 right now and not a cloud in sight. I hope everyone is enjoying this warm July day.

    Accuweather’s 2019-2020 winter “forecast” for the southeast US: We’ll see I suppose.

    Yes, it was constant there for a while. Like you, the better rain was to my south, but at least we received about half an hour of a sustained borderline downpour.

    I used to say that weeds and grass looked similar when cut to a couple of inches. That is until I moved to a neighborhood where I’m surrounded by one-acre manicured lawns that look like a Pinehurst fairway the Tuesday before the US Open. That’s a lot of pressure to put on a person.

    This would be nice weather for six weeks ago, but not for September 25th. I guess we’re looking at October 4th or 5th at the earliest until we get a taste of fall.

    I’ve been a NUFC fan since Alan Shearer’s early days at the club. It’s a miserable existence with all the underachieving. P.S. Still no clouds.

    Well, at this point, I’d settle for just seeing a cloud. This is ridiculous.

    Show-off. At least the humidity is reasonable here today.

    Nice thundershower making its way through northern Guilford right now. Really helping cooling things off. Should help the new grass seed, too.

    Well, you know it’s not really a disaster unless it affects Manhattan.

    I’m moving from 3 miles west of downtown GSO to 11 miles north of downtown GSO. Being farther away from the I-40/I-85 battle zone hopefully increases my chances for wintry precip. I can’t complain though. At the old house, I did pretty well most winters. This upcoming season should be interesting. I’m so sick of this humid heat though. Bring on the months ending in BER.

    The ridiculously obvious rule of thumb in NC is those north and/or west of a given location will usually receive more winter accumulation during any given season. Even within a single county. Individual storms might pan out differently, but this rule seems to hold true over an entire winter.
  17. magpiemaniac
    Perhaps. I’ll temper my optimism until Friday. On the bright side, any additional snow we get this season is just gravy.

    Believe it or not, Trevor Lawrence is a freshman which makes this team this team a playoff favorite for the next several years.

    That went UP from 11” to 12” for GSO since this morning’s graphic. I’ll take 8” and call December a success.

    I just finished a bottle of wine. Bring on Snowpocalypse Dec ‘18, but don’t expect my shoveling to be worth a darn.

    Say “I just got NAM’d” one more time.
  22. magpiemaniac
    I’ve been wondering. If you were to piece together the various call maps from adjacent NWS field offices, would the accumulation projections along their border counties match up fairly well? Has anyone ever seen a 10” call for one county and then 2” in a neighboring county forecasted by another NWS office?
  23. magpiemaniac
    Or as the rest of us call it, the Triad.
  24. magpiemaniac
    At this point in the season, I’ll take it.

    Some people want to see the world burn.
