  1. Brad P is talking about the possibilities. Nothing too significant, but...
  2. We get it. You've got the weather all figured out, and we are stupid for even enjoying a chase that might not pan out. Come on, man. It's a weather board. And, more than that, it's a snow-lovers board. We are going to talk about what the models show and what might happen, and I won't apologize for that. If it doesn't snow, life will go on. If it does snow, I will enjoy it (just like the anticipation), even if it only falls from the sky and never actually accumulates.
  3. The 06Z 12Z NAM was very friendly to upstate SC with a 7-inch lollipop of snowfall. We now have a HWO for up to one-half-inch of snowfall tomorrow morning. Crazy, but lovin' it! Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  4. The 00Z 12K NAM does not disappoint! A nice 6-inch swath of snowfall from Charlotte to Greensboro! Upstate SC gets 1-3 inches. Also, the afternoon discussion from GSP was priceless. Check it out if you haven't seen it yet. Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  5. Yeah, look at the classic LP placement on the 12Z ICON:
  6. Congratulations, you forced me into a Google search this morning, and I just added a new word to my vocabulary. =) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petrichor
  7. Oh, come on! =) You know everyone pulls for snow in their own backyards. It doesn't mean I hate people that live in eastern NC or anything. If you guys get snow out of this, I will enjoy seeing your pictures, just as I did when the posters from Jacksonville, NC, shared a few weeks back. I also think it's more likely (see earlier post) that you will see snow out of this than I will. Anyway, I pull for snow IMBY every month of the year -- January - December. Those of you pulling for spring to prevail now that we are in late March don't march to the beat of the same drum as do I. The advent of spring only means that summer (and the awful heat and humidity) will shortly be here. Ugh! Winter is coming...
  8. True. There is that option. I don't think either one is likely, though -- westward trend or expansion of coverage. I think you stand the best chance of getting something in your backyard if you live to the north and east of Raleigh in this setup. But, who knows? We'll keep watching...
  9. Just need that westward trend... [emoji16] Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  10. Light snow here in Lenoir, NC, right now. Beautiful! Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  11. Moderate sleet/graupel mix this morning in Hickory and Lenoir. Nice farewell gesture from this winter season. Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  12. Awesome to hear that our SENC peeps got some late-season snowfall this morning! Congrats, guys!
  13. Is the video sped up in the second half? If not, that guy is flying down those back-country roads. Driving all over the road too.
  14. My favorite is the COD: https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/nexrad/index.php?type=GSP-N0Q-0-12
  15. And the "jackpot zone" (if you can call 1.5 inches a "jackpot") is in the lee of the Apps in each case. I think that's good. Amirite? Or, should I concede to the conventional wisdom that you never want to be in the "jackpot zone" three or four days out? I'm just gonna grasp at any straws thrown my way right now...
  16. Still there at 06Z. Winning! Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  17. My favorite! Leeside enhancement! Let's do this! Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  18. If you are south of I-85, then you should expect even less snow than what has been reported at GSP. So, again, this year isn't too different from normal. Still disappointing, but not completely aberrant.
  19. You live in NW SC, man. Here are the annual (and monthly -- October to May) snowfall totals for the past 15 years or so at GSP: Your 4.3-inch season total this year is only 0.4 inches less than normal. It's also more than 16 of the years listed here. I think it's been a pretty normal year for you as far as totals go. (I also figure you don't actually live at the airport -- Boiling Springs is more north and east of there -- so your totals will vary a bit, but this is the best I can do.) We all want more snow, myself included. (Spring, stay away!) I think the extra bitterness and despair right now is due to the big storm that was had in December. Everyone believed that we were setting up for an epic winter with that early storm. It just hasn't materialized that way, though.
  20. Wait. You're in favor of censoring which information the public has access to? I'm going to file a Freedom of Information Act request to counter your proposal. =) It should be up to the individual to determine what information they want to give credence to and how they want to process it. I don't need/want someone else filtering my weather map access because they believe I wouldn't be able to handle whatever mood swings they think I might incur.
  21. While it may seem that cold rain forms in eastern NC, it actually doesn't. It just happens to pass through there quite often. Perhaps something to do with a certain poster with the same name... [emoji16] Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  22. Staying on Helton Creek up near Mouth of Wilson, VA. The owner of these rental cabins says the creek is as high as he has ever seen it in 19 years up here. We've seen multiple benches wash down the creek. Pulled up lots of things away from edge. Still rising. Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  23. Never got below freezing last night. 33.0 F was the coldest BY temperature that I recorded.
