  1. Well, we did have something like that in March 1993
  2. Yea, a little too interesting; how about nice 6 or 7 inch snowstorm instead. We will see what happens...definitely a middle of the night alarm clock will be set to get up and check the weather.
  3. I remember attempting to sleep through Opal; that was a lost cause. Recall hearing the wind gusts approaching like a freight train. Wife and I sat on the porch and watched the trees whip back and forth during Ivan.
  4. Once again getting rain well out ahead of the main event. Just took the leaf blower to my very steep and potentially slick driveway; trying to beat the rain but ended up doing half of it while getting rained on. Was not expecting it this early. Probably not getting much sleep tonight.
  5. Given the current NHC track I was concerned about the wind around here. We would have had a chance to actually get a bit of a dry spell this Fall if it were not for the tropics; at least it keeps fire season in check. Those poor folks on the Gulf coast have been hammered; at least this one will be a little east of the last two in the region.
  6. I know it isn't popular in these parts but especially after staying winter until mid-May I don't mind this bit of Indian summer. This Fall has been great compared to the scorch fest last year!
  7. Thanks for sharing the photos; absolutely perfect weather to be checking out the leaves.
  8. Same IMBY; it is glorious to have a stretch of cool, DRY, sunny weather; enjoy it everyone! Plan to get out for some camping in the near future.
  9. Wow that is a bit chilly, sun came out down here in the low lands of the French Broad valley; made it to 68 F IMBY. Very nice day and glad not to be in the roaster like last year.
  10. Only about 0.7 inches IMBY so far...
  11. If we can get past Sally, I did like seeing this in the GSP forecast discussion: The payoff from this late week unpleasantness will be our first taste of fall over the weekend into early next week, when sprawling cool/dry high pressure is forecast to overspread the East. Forecast temps and dewpoints for Sat-Mon are more typical of mid-October than mid-September.
  12. Love this weather! Hope everyone is enjoying it on this holiday weekend and for tomorrow, happy Labor Day folks!
  13. I saw that; looks really bad.
  14. Well, your chances of snow in Durham are about the same as Florida. The good news it is an easy drive to Roxboro
  15. Well, pressure at Frying Pan right now is 839 mb. Frying Pan Knob that is.
  16. Good luck, sending big miss vibes your way. At least we can be confident it isn't going to be hanging around very long.
  17. No doubt it is stressing me out; I have family in Wilmington, NC and Raleigh, NC although not as worried about Raleigh.
  18. Not going to bother to count but for Dorian, I wonder how many individual model runs posted are on the left side of the NHC cone of uncertainty vs. the right side...
  19. Well, to keep it real, the last place in the world to come for an objective view of the true probability of landfall is a weather message board; I suppose it serves the purpose of compiling in one place all the worst case scenarios which certainly aren't beyond the realm of possibility.
  20. Well, warm weather does bring crickets
  21. Congrats! Nice to have another member of the Pack in WNC.
  22. Just saw that as well; what a bummer. His parting statement can be found on the WRAL website here: https://www.wral.com/greg-fishel-announcement/18190287/
  23. Don't worry all the teleconnections will set up perfectly this year just the "in winter" part of it will be fail.
