Nope. It will take a massive software upgrade to accomplish that. A massive supercomputer upgrade will only allow them to get the same forecast out more quickly.

And young people who say the same thing.

Nothing will reach the ground in Guilford. A few thousand feet above our head the dewpoint is -50.

I just sat here and quietly laughed.

Almost. People who wine most think they get the best snows.

Don't know, don't care.

I just traded in an 8 cylinder car. My new one is just a twin turbo V6.

Good advice.

Another new year. I'm starting mine with a new ride.

I was teaching in Floyd County Va. We went back to school the first day after Christmas break and that was it for January. Every time the roads began to clear we got hit again. Even with all the snow, the thing I remember most was the wind.

Just for fun let me tell you the average snowfall for Antartica is less than Greensboro, NC.

Wow just did a board software update last week. That could have something to do with this if he decided to get it for half price at Comrade Ivan's Software Hut.

Not sure but the world always seems a bit brighter when the political board goes down.

It's a shame no one else showed up. lol

math, math, math, math, math.

Nothing like that here.

I think it is pretty self-explanatory.

You guys are too young to remember the good old days before the interstates were finished. Storms were free to move around the SE as they wished resulting in more frequent and more evenly distributed snowfall. No sudden turns to follow the twin concrete ribbons to mess up a forecast back then. You could live wherever you wanted to and have a decent chance at snow. A simpler slower moving time where storms resulted in a couple of days off work to play in the snow instead of a state of emergency.* *This message sponsored by the Ghost of Snowstorms Past.

I am going to lock this since we are so close to the end of the year. Around mid-month we can start the 2018 thread.

It does make more sense now. You're Burl Ives.

I doubt race has anything to do with flood danger. A simple statement that many poor people live in a threatened area is enough. If you want to post here take this advice to heart.

Keep politics out of here.

Explain the bolded.

Not to worry. He just got Brubecked.

This isn't about Josh. I respect him as well. My problem is you and what you are inferring from severely limited data and then basically using Josh as a reference. And yes, you are downplaying Maria. I know Andrew impressed you but the type of damage you describe was in one fairly narrow swath through the homestead area. Andrew was a small cane size wise.
