  1. Damn kvegas, what makes you think you can forecast weather when you can’t even handle time.
  2. Interesting. I feel this is our best shot for the winter. In case no one noticed the average high temp at PTI yesterday was 47.8º. Today it is 47.9º. That’s right, yesterday on average was the coldest day of the year. We need to get our snow now because the temps have started their long climb toward our 88.1º summer.
  3. I know this is late but I’ve been out all day. I don’t think you’re making the correct read on the graphic. It is not a “don’t let perfect get in the way of good” kind of graphic. Quite the opposite. By using values like 22%, 27% etc. instead of just rounding them to the nearest 5 they have made it an “imitation of accuracy to 1% without corroborating data” kind of graphic.
  4. And that is why starting a storm thread six days out is not a good idea.
  5. NADA Saturday NWS Forecast for Banvile NC - A chance of rain after 1pm. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 41. Chance of precipitation is 40%.
  6. Another lie of this magnitude and there will be serious consequences.
  7. The inch or two of rain that will have fallen before any change over will also make any accumulation even more unlikely. In general I am a strong proponent of snow rate overcoming warm ground but there is a limit.
  8. One cup of milk and two slices of bread should more than cover this.
  9. Keep the Covid talk out of here. Off topic is where it belongs.
  10. You’ve been at the airport too much.
  11. Nothing like a 78º day in December to get out the mower and mulch all the leaves that were several inches thick. I guessing the depth of the leaves will beat the depth of any snow this winter.
  12. The prospect of going to the home just moved from terrible to terrifying.
  13. Ah. Makes sense. I have to be careful. Confusion at my age can get my ass in the home.
  14. The table didn’t format so click the link and scroll down. Thanks for giving me a dementia scare!! Lol https://www.weather.gov/media/rah/climate/LatestMonthlyClimate.pdf The lack of rainfall events and the sporadic nature of showers and thunderstorms when they occurred led to widely variable rainfall totals for the month. As shown in Table 2, even though Raleigh was very wet with 7.53 inches for the month (most of that falling from the October 9 event), monthly totals were 2.80 inches at Greensboro (0.30 inches below normal) and only 1.21 inches at Fayetteville (2.02 inches below normal). Table 2: Monthly Precipitation Statistics Site Total precipitation (in.) Departure from Normal (in.) Max Daily Precipitation (in.) Greensboro (GSO) 2.80 -0.30 0.82 on 10/7 Raleigh-Durham (RDU) 7.53 +4.16 4.96 on 10/9 Fayetteville (FAY) 1.21 -2.02 0.55 on 10/28 From the cumulative precipitation graph in Figure 7, a large porti
  15. Hmm. Could be old age but I distinctly remember getting a pop up from a weather program about it. I believe it referenced storms around 10/9 and commented on the large difference.
  16. Kind of strange that Raleigh has had over 7” this month and I’ve has 0.39” and yet we are both labeled D0.
  17. But the Southeast ridge cometh and this winter will tend to stay.
