POWERSTROKE Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Sounds like you need to cancel JB !!! he is the reason your saying winter is over, what little money it cost i will keep him. I don't buy into what he says anymore, I listen but most of time he is wrong and you know it. Anyway I will be glad to take a break to get some work done besides plowing snow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmersonGA Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 It almost sounds like Ji has been in here. I keep thinking back to last year and how good mid February to early March was. I don't remember forseeing that time period being good from very far off. Anyways, it looks like Saturday will be watching movies with a fire going while it is 35 and pouring rain. We'll probably get our obligatory sleet to start out just for kicks and giggles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG FROSTY Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Blacksburg still gives a chance of mix (which I doubt happens) although you can't rule out a little sleet to start. .FRIDAY...MOSTLY CLOUDY. RAIN LIKELY IN THE AFTERNOON. HIGHS IN THE LOWER 40S. CHANCE OF RAIN 60 PERCENT. .FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY...RAIN AND SNOW LIKELY. LOWS IN THE MID 30S. HIGHS IN THE MID 40S.

Tacoma Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 rain changing to snow Friday Night and Saturday morning for Asheville NC according to NWS but little if any accumulation. i agree when there is a storm as long as its rain its fine but as soon as we have cold temps there is no moisture and when we have moisture its a little to warm for snow-----GO FIGURE, then in the midwest it snows at a drop of a hat.

BIG FROSTY Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Can't believe everything JB says In my post earlier I said MAJOR winter storm, No doubt we'll see some little events ! I think Friday still has a chance of being a mix ? Euro has 34 rain and GFS 33 rain so all they have to be is off just 2-4 degrees and it's a different ball game, And that is very possible. But they could be off in the other direction and we're warmer ? Bottom line I still think mix is possible in Mountain's and Foothills and N.Piedmont Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIG FROSTY Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Too bad mid level temps are 36. Yea, It stinks ! Like I said a couple weeks ago, With no blocking it's like pulling hens teeth to get winter weather in the SE I'll take the 12z CMC that's my model of choice.

SnoJoe Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Boohoo SnoJoe. What are you up to now? 80"? I'll have you know Mr. Peach, my snow pack is down to a measly, dirty, icy, 6 inches. Word on the street is we might actually see mud in a few days. Can you imagine? Apparently you have never experienced "mud" in the winter time. It's horrible.

dsaur Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 After a whole day of dripping fog, I have heavy thunder and pouring rain. Not the snow/sleet I envisioned 10 days back, but I'll take it. Don't feel sorry for Joe, he is off to the islands for a vacation. Heresy, I know, but I don't think they make those mtn. boys as tough as they used to.

dsaur Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Thank the Floridians. Yep, the Pharaohs did a lot of inbreeding, and look what happened to them! Heaviest rain I've seen in months and months falling now. If this was snow I could pretend I was the Mtn. King T Edit: 3/4's of an inch in about a half hour. Not too shabby.

EmersonGA Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Tell your wife to read Thoreau, Joe, and she would realice she would use those paths even if the snow wasn't there. I have a deafening downpour going on here right now. Haven't checked but Im sure Im over an inch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnoJoe Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Tell your wife to read Thoreau, Joe, and she would realice she would use those paths even if the snow wasn't there. I wish I would said that to her, took a drink from my sniffer, and looked back down to the paper! It would have killed her! Moderate Rain 43.4 degrees Wind - 15/22 The way this storm is wound up, I don't see how we here can't see some pretty nasty winds come midday tomorrow.

FoothillsNC Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I'm really liking the chances of the first widespread big rain event this season in most of the Southeast this Fri/Saturday. The trough is held way back for a long time, and the low development is well into the Gulf, with overrunning beginning very early. Its been showing up a while like this now, and usually this is a big rain event with little dry slot worries anywhere south of the Fl. panhandle. Could be some big rains well over 2" in much of Al, Ga and all the Carolinas, finally. The models aren't quite that wet yet, but I think the pattern supports it. Friday's a total washout, and becoming showery by early Saturday. NAM totals: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrips27 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Nothing like 1-2" of 35-45oF rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superjames1992 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 At least we have a potential rare winter storm to watch.. I find these quite interesting even though I'm not there to experience it. The NAM also has some weird bullseye over Robert's house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BraseltonGAWX Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 At least we have a potential rare winter storm to watch.. I find these quite interesting even though I'm not there to experience it. I agree. I hardly ever watch TWC anymore, thanks to this wonderful forum and the internet in general. But I've had it on all night and just got a big kick out of Cantore reacting to lightning and thundersnow in Chicago. He cracks me up. I must have rewound it and watched it 5 times on the DVR. Did anyone else see that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
