Here comes the fun police (I'm making a funny jab, please don't ban me)
 
Had a blast tracking this storm. Ultimately it was a success for me. It's a shame others did not get the same snow totals that Western Wake County and westward did, but I hope you guys score later in the winter. It's been fun tracking winter storms on Southernwx so far and hopefully there will be more to come!

Brick received almost 9 inches which is what like 3 above the RDU seasonal average . How will he handle it if that’s all he gets this winter ???

Would be hard to complain about ending the season above average

Yeah but he is north of Raleigh so his average is probably 8 or 9

The bitter part of me hopes we torch from here on out

Yeah, I got fatigue from tracking. Beggars can’t be choosers but I wouldn’t hate it if things got going again in mid Jan.
 
It honestly, even though it's just two seasons out from the Super Bowl appearance, does not look like Dan Quinn should be allowed to return for next season. It's one thing to be bad, and it's another thing for the whole team to quit. I wouldn't be surprised if Blank fires him after this year, and if he's not fired, his seat is going to be ROARING hot.
 
I know I missed on this forecast (although I don't have either one of you guys expertise) NOBODY gets them all right or even 60% because this board covers a huge expanse of area and forecasting for each area without having intimate knowledge of all of them is a challenge for sure. As in all southern snows, there are winners and losers so we all should acknowledge our areas micro climate and its differences with others and be happy when somebody wins each time. Also I get a bigger kick sometimes tracking the storm as I do with the actual event because there is always a bit of a let down when it is all over. Gee, now I think I'm depressed! :eek:
 
I am on my way to Fort Wayne and noticed Indiana has a lot of wind mills. I dont recall seeing many wind mills in GA.
 
This is for @SD throught he might like for being down and out. :cool:

It is pretty cool.

So does that mean if I block someone they can't see what I post? If not, I program in PHP and MySQL and I'd love to try to figure out if that's possible!

sigh** its time for me to hop in on this. Webberweather kept on emphasizing that the warm nose would be a general problem and it was... 1300m is cherry-picking Raleigh,NC.. That front thump was stronger than forecasted but the warm nose did win... Personally, i think Webber did a good job. He highlighted the gradient over southwestern NC mountains which happened and forecasted the warm nose to be a bigger deal than global models anticipated.. Also, tbh 1300m you have a good general knowledge which is to be expected with a degree meteorologist but every time you appear on this forum there is always an issue whether or not its Eric or not. I'm sick of it at this point. Also, again (lol), whether or not the mods told you that they wanted to ban Webber, you are just creating more issues saying that.

Exactly lol literally right on cue every time he appears he has to throw in some derogatory remark towards someone or something (whether that’s another poster including me, WRAL, or how someone even looked at him funny) he feeds off of negativity in general and it’s blatantly obvious he needs anger management, counseling, and probably should see a psychiatrist all for starters. He’s setting such a great example for his children. Not.

Totally agree that tracking is most of the fun, it's like Christmas with big lead up and then when it's over it's kinda depressing Lol. But this storm busted low in areas and high in others... not a single forecast had 7" imby while places like RC and Shane's location forecast more than they saw. This crazy thing called weather

But the NAM handles the temperature profile better.

The NAM actually handled the profiles nicely here in the Charlotte area it’s been a sleet fest as expected. At least we know this storm didn’t cut up into the OH valley like some were promising several days ago ;)

I'm just glad the low ratios, mixing w/ IP (potentially more than NWP expected) didn't limit accumulations in Raleigh like some promised a mere 8 hours ago ;)

You’re adorable, classic response from someone who won the tool of the year award

Let's review how this started, since I'm the problem. Storm5 posted a funny meme about the NAM, and I responded. You, with your insecurities, then thought it was about you, got your feelings hurt, and had to post a pot shot -- an outright lie --- about how "At least we know this storm didn’t cut up into the OH valley like some were promising several days ago".

I responded by giving you some of your own medicine, you couldn't take it and have been crying like a two year old ever since. You then RESPONDED TO ME to start this whole thing.

When my kids get upset, they typically whine for only a few minutes. It's like 8 hours later and you still can't get over it. I'm so glad you have a fan, hope that makes you feel better. Those in the meteorology community around Raleigh are well aware of you and your ways, so good luck finding a job around here. Should have thought about that before you plastered yourself all over social media.

Aww how adorable! you wasted no time responding it’s like you don’t even have a life outside of this forum and arguing with college students and weather weenies over superfluous garbage. Lol yeah ok if this helps you sleep at night. Follow my aforementioned advice and get some mental treatement because you desparately need it.

No big boy, tell me why you responded to me and got offended because of my post about the NAM. I'm not letting this go. You started it, now be a man and finish it instead of the quivering, redirect coward you typically are.

As long as you guys are doing this in banter have at it. Let us know when you have resolved the issue.

I think it might take a little more time...
But, you never know they might end up best friends. I have seen it happen before.

Aww you’re so cute! Looks like our big strong man over here is getting a little fiesty. Eat a snickers or go do something productive and meaningful with your life for once today like enjoying time with your family and kids in this snowstorm

Redirect - I can predict you better than the weather! Haha can't answer the question can you. Why did you get offended about a joking post about the NAM and then post a pot shot (which your silence admits was about me) and then directly respond to me? Redirect, redirect, redirect. Be a man and tell me why. Did your pride get hurt because you thought the NAM was going to verify? What was it?

Maybe it will happen after they dig themselves into so deep of a hole that nobody else is around but the two of them.

1300m, my best advice to you is to go to the barbershop and get that hairline fixed. No one likes a Ronald McDonald parabolic hairline...

My advice to you is stay in your own lane. Are you his spokesperson? Why don't you answer for him since he can't?

Because you always have to chime in with a snide comment or post towards something at least every so often on here even if it’s not necessarily directed at me lol and it’s quite annoying and it gets on my nerves pretty fast. There I said it, you happy now? Look you’re a smart dude, and a majority of the time you and I see eye to eye in general or sniff out the right idea when it comes to winter weather in some, way, shape, or form before most do and it’s a luxury I’m sure most on this forum want to keep. We definitely DO NOT want newcomers to go to American because of excessive bickering on this blog! Just take a damn chill pill and enjoy your 7” of snow. If it makes you feel any better I had 2-3” of pure sleet today and virtually no snow, and it was miserable. me moving away from Raleigh and towards Charlotte could have something to do with a storm actually not busting for once in the Triangle lol.
