Snowless in Carrollton Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I'll be so glad when we can stop looking at these stupid models and just look at the radar or better yet just look outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 What is it predicted to do to this storm Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk You're new. I get it. I used to be new to and horrible at all of this. In fact, I consider myself horrible for the most part on here. Anyways... When you read information about other areas of the Southeast on here, try to learn from it. What I mean is to actually look at pictures and data they show and explain and try to see what they are talking about. It will teach you what to look for in your area! If you don't know what a weather term like "thickness" is, try to google it. If you just can't find the right answer, ask in these banter threads about it. People will be nice and help. BTW, do not google "thickness".. you might get some adult websites showing up.. lol google something like "weather thickness precipitation". Tons of people ask questions that are specific to their back yards. In fact, it is asked so much on these weather forums that we kind of skip over it or even get annoyed by it. You're on a weather forum, not a site with thousands of personal forecasters for you. We all (over-time) put effort forth to learn and try to help others out like I am trying to now with you. If I sound harsh, I apologize. You can learn a lot here if you're willing to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjames1992 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Things look on track from what I can tell. RDU was generally always thought to changeover to rain at some point, so I don't see what has changed there. If anything, tonight has increased the scope of this storm with ice becoming a real possibility in NW SC and NE GA. And, honestly, we'll see if RDU actually changes over to rain. CAD can hold on longer than expected and surface cold is hard to erode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lookout Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Give him or her credit, at least they found the right thread to ask that question Damn...you do have a point. Still whenever a storm comes along we have to deal with about a thousand of those and it really gets annoying when the answer is usually found within 10 minutes at most.

Regan Raleigh Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 WRAL's 11:00 was a weird one. Basically said "no snow, just a day of freezing rain and sleet" as if that's just as normal as an afternoon thunderstorm in summer. I mean I don't necessarily disagree with the forecast, but you'd think that a day long freezing rain event might warrant at least a little more intensity than they gave it. Shrug. I think Fishel is tired. He was just trying to wrap up the 11:00 arms go home for the night. He covered a lot during the 5/6pm coverage. He wants to get away until he has too. He did said he doesn't buy the change over to rain yet. Interesting for him. He expressed that the ice is serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its been my experience that the onset frozen never last as long as forecast/modeled in these scenarios...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess my question would be if the cold air damming forces the LP to more of an offshore track? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjames1992 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 What are the chances of this happening with the 0z Euro? We'll see in 15 minutes, sir. Wouldn't be surprised to see the Euro tick NW, but who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarheelwx Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 There have been many times in the past where models have trended in a certain direction for days, only to reverse course just a bit in the final day or so. Not saying that will happen here, but it would match many other instances. TW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILMRoss Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Ok, do I chase this storm in Boone or Richmond? It's limited to those cities because I can stay with friends who go to VCU and app. I'm completely torn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This storm looks to be a bit more historic for Richmond, though (this will be their biggest snowfall in decades). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't go wrong with either, though.Actually? Richmond. Chase the thunder snow, screw elevation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, a safer bet (something screwy can always happen with the low track that would screw the mountains on qpf) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
