I'd take 33 w/sporadic flurries right about now. sigh

Fun fact. Kobe was originally drafted by Charlotte. They drafted him because LA told them to. Turns out a trade had already been worked out between the Lakers/Hornets. Hornets got Vlade Divak for him.. I know Kobe playing for Charlotte was never really in the cards, but to dream of what could have been.

^rhetorical question

Apparently Clemson is trying to be a basketball school.

But sleet pellets hurt.. This winter is going about as well as UNC's basketball season so far.

The disco (and storm) threads always have their own ebb and flow. Back and forth with models. Doom and gloomers mixed with eternal optimists. Occasionally new characters make an appearance, but mostly it's the same classic characters up to the same old tricks, episode after episode. These December episodes have been terrible so far, but I'm hopeful Jan/Feb will make up for it.

They are back in the top 25 this week. Stinks they lost to GSU. I guess the law of averages said they had to lose one of those games they were supposed to win. I'm a UNC fan, and I just laughed at people that said ASU beating us was an 'upset'. I felt like that game had the same vibe as when we played Miami or Wake Forest. I thought we were lucky to have a chance at the end. Think about how much $$$ South Carolina puts into their football program. Now think about how much ASU budgets for theirs. AHAHAHAHAHAHA!

*gasp*

Yes Mr. President.

Err. Technically it hasn't made landfall today at all. Help me out man. What are we arguing about?

You were certainly close. If only you had said cat 2... But keep your head up! Maybe you'll call the next one right.

This whole sharpie-Alabama-forecast thing. I swear, it's like reading an article straight from The Onion.

Can ya'll imagine if Greg Fishel made an account on here one day, and suddenly started posting on here with a met tag? Lord have mercy--some of us would just melt down and lose our minds. Greg--if you're lurking here, DO IT! PLEASE! IT WOULD BE SO EPIC! Course, some of ya'll would be skeptical that it's really him. But not me. I would believe.

Are you MAD?? It's still Summer. TOO EARLY TO BRING THE MOJO FOR A SNOWACANE. (even for you) Wait to bring that S#!& in Dec at least. Not NOW. This ain't Canada.

It's all your fault. All the cool kids were here until you showed up.

me sowwy

I actually LOL'ed at this.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic-aperture_radar We have ways of mapping terrain even when completely covered by clouds. Apparently they used the same thing when mapping out Venus, which is completely covered by clouds. Science is neat!

Nah sir. I was quoting SENC in an earlier post. I was kidding.

A whole can of worms opened up there. Some valid and some suspect. Too much to address in just one post. You're right about SENC being one big swamp. Part of the reason it's never really been developed too much. Well, until recent years.

Alright SENC, it's all starting to fit. Big time skepticism of flood maps. Some allusions to this storm only being a cat 3. Prior skepticism of Michael's intensity last year. And now a joking reference to storm chasing, and spouting the "False Hoax" of AGW. (which I had to look up, but apparently refers to global warming) How far down the rabbit hole does the conspiracy go?

Yea, I grew up in a neighborhood off Skeet Club Rd. N High Point is pretty similar to the rest of Greensboro climo wise (from what I remember). We'll see what happens.. Weren't you in Tallahassee before? and now you're in Durham? That means you'll be in the game for at least half of the winter threats this year.

Sooooooo, could be moving to Greensboro in August. Would be signing a 1 year lease if I take the opportunity. Can I change my name to YetAnotherGSOGuy?

I didn't mean it.

LOL@ having at least 50% chance of rain at RDU from 5am Wed morning until about 5pm Sat evening. 84 hours. Remember when we had to worry about droughts around here? I think the last one was back in the 90's, but I'm sure someone in here will post some data in the past 5 years to prove me wrong.
