Misc General Banter Thread

I'm not trying to be an asshole but man you have to realize how hard it is to balance differing opinions, letting folks actually be frustrated, disagreeing 100% with posts but having to leave it because deleting because we disagree isn't the right way to manage it and finally understanding there's a high risk to life and property so some folks are coming here just to find some kind of community that's in the same situation but they may not really have a lot of met knowledge

it is incredibly complicated. I always personally leaned on deleting bad info but you can make a case to go either way.

Radar definitely looks to be going further north than modeled. But I’m not trained just looks like it

 

[Bigedd09]

Man the NAM is just persistent on a ton of sleet while the HRRR and RAP barely have any sleet. Who yall got???

Looks like it’s busting on the low end where Brent is at. What does that mean down the road for us ?

I don’t know much but I don’t think we will know how it goes until it comes this way, way to many variables to this storm.

I never doubt the nam on thermals and p types this close to an event

 

[Drizzle Snizzle]

Mid-Atlantic weenies losing their minds

Aren't you like 1 mile from the Mid-Atlantic ? Lol.

 

[tractor girl]

this fuckin sucks. Athens couldn't buy ourselves any wintery precip if we had all the money in the world.

 

[Mitch West]

Saying it’s the worst might be a stretch. Haha
Worse is 33 rain or nothing falling at all.

Well specifically talking on snow type

 

[Hoss_Bonaventure]

I mostly just look on here, but am going to post. My wife took me up to NYC to see Shane Gillis for my bday at MSG. Well our flights are cancelled back to GSP and I get to see the once in a lifetime snow dumping (for me) in NYC. Y'all stay warm and safe.

Congrats! This gift that keeps on giving. Happy Birthday!

Monday is going to be a bad day to be an Atlanta meteorologist

Haha hope it goes better there than it's going here. Good luck

Dry air killing us

 

[SnowNiner]

For mby, I’m thinking the lower qpf verifies.

Why?

I just watched a Brad video. He still says .5 or so ice in our area. I guess time will tell.

 

[Snowflowxxl]

Why?

I won’t be shocked if the city proper never gets below 32

 

[BullCityWx]

I saw on threads that the Durham Costco was in the top five in sales for the entire country yesterday

 

[Drizzle Snizzle]

Even if it does get below 32 in Atlanta it will probably be only 30-31. It's not like it will be 25. So I don't see a huge icing event for Atlanta.

 

[snowc-alt]

Regarding outages, how likely am I going to lose power for Dunn/Erwin area? I saw that its possible.

 

[FortMillSCWx]

Bought a Starlink Mini for all my travel. Anyone else have one and tested the effectiveness during ice storms? Everything charged up and tub full.

 

[NCPROGRAMMER]

NC will be dry slotted on short term models. If true, this is a big win. There will be some frozen precip but not as much as they were originally showing a day or 2 ago. Hope that sticks.

 

[jackendrickwx]

Lowe’s got 200 generators this morning and have sold half of them already

 

[shicks]

I haven't seen this posted but might have missed it. Krik has been doing it for a long time. I am still betting on colder than modeled but we will see

 

[jackendrickwx]

If 925s are overdone by even a couple C here it will make a big difference

 

[Stevo24]

12z icon has suppressed storm

And it will stay that way.

 

[snowc-alt]

And it will stay that way.

All Hail ICON!

 

[Packsox03]

Everyone panicking on the mid atlantic forum because we might only get 5-10” of snow instead of 10-15” lol

 

[Drizzle Snizzle]

Pretty sure the WRF-ARW2 is having a "hold my beer" moment. this seems just a bit overdone lol.

Yeah there's no way South Georgia gets ice. You can throw this model out the window.

Someone is going to say it's not amped enough

 

[Thrasher Fan]

I have opinions on the ATL mets but I'll hold off on that til later.

I dont think any of the current Atlanta mets are as good as Ken Cook.

 

[Parker]

I am salivating over next weekend. My wife is so ready for this crap to be over with. She’s so sick of hearing about these stupid models.

Luckily for her winter will be over in about 3 weeks.

I hate seeing Boston and New England getting a big dog. They're so freaking annoying up there, and I'm from the Mid-Atlantic...lol

 

[Roswellian]

His stache game was so strong. Like Burgundy strong. Loved the battles between cook and burns. I’m a throwback to a more gentler time, a in air met named Guy Sharp. How can you not trust a forecast from someone with that name?

It's been a long time since we (they) lol have gotten a big storm. Almost as bad as the SE.

On air met not an in air. Lol

People were at Walmart buying up stuff yesterday and I’m like “do you guys watch the news? It’s gonna be in the 60s this weekend”

People in the south don’t know how to act sometimes…
