  1. Ended up with roughly 2 inches here! The snow definitely didn't take long to start accumulating once it got going here. Overall, that's about what I expected given my location and all.
  2. Been getting light to moderate snow here in Gastonia and it's still going! Everything's covered in white here! 26° for current temperature and dewpoint.
  3. Flurries already appearing from the second batch of moisture moving in from the southwest. Might be getting in on a good snow shower here shortly. Sitting at 29/27.
  4. All's quiet for now in my area. Been having a good bit of sleet falling throughout the latter part of the morning after the good front-end thumping of snow that came through. Up to 3" in total for that. Not as windy as I thought it'd be, though. Currently 30/28. Waiting to see if what's going on back west will pivot through here for the afternoon before the storm pulls away during the evening.
  5. Last report before heading to bed here. Heavy snow is underway and already have the roads completely covered! Somewhere between 1-2 inches in accumulation, so far. Currently at 27/25 and winds are now approaching 25mph gusts.
  6. Really picking up a good bit here in G-town! Moderate snow and sticking fast to a lot more places, now; even the ground's whitening! Temperature and dewpoint are both at 28.
  7. Greetings, folks! Been lurking around and watching this thing unfold! What a ride it's been up until now to watch this thing evolve since it was far back in the northwestern portion of the US! Anyway, got some light snow taking place here in Gastonia! Started around 30 minutes ago, and it's just now trying to increase in intensity some! Sitting at 32/24, and it's kinda breezy out here. Highest wind speed was 15mph out of the NE, but that'll obviously be increasing a good bit as the day progresses.
  8. Yes, quite strange to be seeing lots of lightning and hearing thunder......and having temperatures only in the upper 30s, atm. Why can't it just be cold enough to get some thundersnow going? Now that would've been a surprise for tonight...
  9. Snow's coming down pretty hard here! Getting medium and some large sized flakes mixing in! Sitting at 34/31.
  10. I'm down to 36, now, and the sleet has been mixing in with the rain. I suspect a changeover to all sleet soon before the snow eventually gets in...
  11. Sitting at 38/35 here. Topped only at 43 and have been dropping since 2pm. Been a real cold rain all day, but I've got that feeling that the wintry stuff's on the way sometime soon between now and a few hours later, or so.
  12. Here is me with my sister and niece: Uploaded with ImageShack.us
  13. Beautiful picture. Love the shirt you're wearing.
  14. Here's a recent one of me dressed in my work clothes. I work at the Advance Auto Parts on West Franklin Blvd. as the person who works on the inventory and unloading products from the truck. You can see my bushes already covered with a bunch of yellow flowers, and these don't usually appear until later this month around here (started growing during the last few days of February): Another one. Close up with my recent hair cut, which I much rather prefer this style over how I usually look before it's shortened: Uploaded with ImageShack.us
  15. Figured I show you all what I look like with my hair cut short: Uploaded with ImageShack.us And here's one of me beside my dad's car. 1976 Pontiac Trans Am Firebird with 400 HP. Almost everyone in town recognizes my dad because of this car. Uploaded with ImageShack.us
  16. Love all the pictures I see on here. It's great to know what you folks look like. Might see each other's faces one day! Anyway, here's the first one of me (what I usually where outside). My best friend's house can be seen as well (and the Honda he drives haha ): And here is me without the hat/sunglasses. You can see my 18-speed Shimano mountain bike (26" tires) behind me.
  17. I'm aiming for sometime between mid-August and late September for best activity, give or take a couple of weeks. We already had Tropical Storm Arlene develop but that storm never really threatened the US since it moved westward in the Gulf while weakening. We'll see where we go from here.

  18. Greetings Sonny. Can't say that I would be up for a Cat 5 haha. It'd be great to be able to experience such though despite the danger it comes with. Have you seen my hurricane forecast? Lots of detail for this season is there based on my thoughts.

  19. Not sure where this was from but I didn't take the pic. Would have loved to see this in front of me though. Severe weather has always been something that fascinates me and hence why I took it up to myself to study all the basics, parameters, and such about it.

  20. Greetings Sonny. Thanks for the comment earlier. Appreciate it. Anyway, my profile pic. is showing an example of a well-developed wall cloud in a super cell, eventually becoming a tornado. Probably one of the best I've ever seen.
