Misc General Banter Thread

Welp I’ve packed my car up to head up to my parents’ place west of Baltimore. LWX warning for 7-14” of snow and .1-.2” ZR. Should be a cool storm up that way. Praying for sleet down here i really don’t want to see people suffer too much

Let’s hope DC traffic won’t be too much of a nightmare but im a bit pessimistic there
Safe travels.
 
I really feel like Fulton is one of those Counties that will see a huge difference between North and South. A crippling, catastrophic Ice Storm possible in North Fulton while South Fulton may get just a little ice and mostly plain rain.
Well yeah, it's 60 miles from end to end and it's going to be right in the gradient lol
 
This is Statesville NC at 6Z Sunday AM. I’m trying to learn but is this not a snow sounding?

Do I go off the Blue Zero line ? Or the Green? lol

I’m jealous! :)

Back in my single days, I’d probably head over to GSO to stay with my parents since they are more prepared (they have a generator, etc.) and the storm might be better there with more sleet as opposed to IP, but alas those days are past. We have a dog that doesn’t play nice with cats and my parents have two cats, so that would have to be a last resort.

Yeah the power issues will likely be much less serious and ill be stuck regardless. Plus, as a college student, it’s tough to prepare. My mom was a bit worried about me and NC’s ice infrastructure
 
Curious if anyone has any general idea of Robert / WxSouth’s general thoughts about this system?
 
What is bothering me is that...usually, the CAD get stronger on the models (back in the day) but it seems to reverse. Back it the day the 12z would have been 4 to 5 day runs and the closer you get the colder and the realize you cant break down a CAD. Maybe the CAD is in the wrong position. If it was in PA, it would make a difference.
 
This needs to be said. When commenting on runs and saying “rain” or similar it’s important to note location. Saying a model shows rain, when it’s isolated to the extreme corner of a particular state is confusing and not helpful

Great post and a common problem with any type of wx showing on the models (rain, snow, sleet, hot, cold, windy, etc.) Or say “in my location” like I often do since my location is known.
