    TWC has Reynolds Wolf and Scott Newell in Raleigh and Mike Seidel in Charlotte. Great job, guys! Greensboro? Where's that? Our weather pros have never heard of it. Haha! Fools.

    Stupid how TWC sends to road reporters to Raleigh and Charlotte just to witness wet slush.

    I have relatives in Columbia, TN who said they're up to 4" of all snow, but I can see grass in their latest photos. Looks like 1" or 2" at most. I'm smelling some bull hockey.

    Truth.

    The mods will clean them up.

    After all this hype and watching a week of the strike zone being forecasted to be to my southeast, I'm on pins and needles waiting to see what happens tonight. I don't want to even physically move out of fear of the butterfly effect. I'm lowering my expectations and hoping for 4".
  7. magpiemaniac
    No. Keep him. I'll take my (hopefully) 8" to 12" snow without the attention.

    Well, I'll be. So the board really only goes into Storm Mode when it's a DC/NYC storm.

    Sort of scares me that RAH's forecast for GSO says... Minimum of 0" Most likely amount of 8" Possibility of 12" This storm must have a huge bust potential. Their minimum graphic show highest amounts southeast, but their most likely and possibility graphics show the highest totals northwest. Seems disjointed.

    Complain to Mom first. Maybe she'll bake you cookies.

    I wonder sometimes what the guys at RAH are smoking. They have Greensboro under a Winter Storm Warming while calling for 2" to 4". Meanwhile, they have Goldsboro under a Winter Storm Watch while calling for 3" to 7". In what universe does that make sense?

    It's all fun and games until the next Euro run. I don't think I'm staying up for that.
  13. magpiemaniac
    There will be fisticuffs in the main event thread soon.
  14. magpiemaniac
    Weather models suck. True story.

    Obviously, the Southeast US is a whole lot of real estate. So after each model run, it's interesting to see which geographic constituency gets really quite and and which starts to perk up. Process repeats itself every few hours. One day, we'll learn that AmericanWX was just a huge psychological experiment.

    No worries. It'll change once again during this evening's run.
  17. magpiemaniac
    I agree. It does give them a lot more needed wiggle room without becoming overly vague. Edit: I meant does instead of doesn't.

    Creators of call maps seem to get lazy when it comes go forecasting anything 100 miles beyond their hometown. Understandable and natural of course, but don't pretend you're making a regional forecast when you're only really focused on your own backyard.

    I don't envy the mets at the Peachtree City NWS office right now. They must be flustered.

    If I get the 12z GFS bufkit of 10.8" for GSO, I'm cashing out with a bang and will start celebrating our forthcoming spring. But I don't put much stock into bufkit estimates. I'll be shocked if I get half of that.
  21. magpiemaniac
    It's like a funeral in the event thread. Start playing a funeral dirge.
  22. magpiemaniac
    Everyone is speechless. Darn it. We need to make weather modeling great again. (Was it ever though?)
  23. magpiemaniac
    There still seems to a lack of consensus. 12z Euro says, "No snow for you, Georgia." Several days ago, people cheering for one model will be now cheering for another and vice versa. What a strange storm.
  24. magpiemaniac
    And the tree canopy. Don't forget the trees.
  25. magpiemaniac
    Man, whoever can perfectly balance temps/QPF/ratios on a razor's edge for this event should do really well. It's almost a zero sum game for this storm.
