I’m sorry , didn’t mean to be that guy overly critiquing things . It’s pretty good ! I’m just nit picky when it comes to acknowledging proper climatology and such . Especially since some members get overly excited with unrealistic not based in climo expectations of things . We already blew through the forecast high for Friday , on Thursday and Friday supposed to be warmer lol.

@SD to add more , why are the models always so cold relative to what actually happens ? Seriously ! You based your forecast off the EPS means , but why are they so cold relative to actual temps ? That certainly affects long range accuracy , would be interested to see what hour the biases are greatest , for example is hour 192 of the model run more on avg biased than say hour 240 or hour 48?

Yeah, it’s crazy the levels of impoverishment you can still find to this day in America. I went to school with kids who smelled horrid because their water was cut off a lot of the time and they couldn’t shower .

Yeah, in North Carolina the rural-urban divide is huge. Kids growing up in suburban Raleigh, Charlotte etc aren't exposed to the kinds of realities kids from eastern NC are exposed to. I mean I knew a girl who was underage and ughhh sold herself for money to guys who were way older than her. Rumor has it an ex-sheriff's deputy paid her money as well... I don't know if that is true but I do know at 17 she was selling herself.

Places like Northeastern NC , and urban areas like rocky mount in eastern NC are horrible lol. Its not called murder mount for nothing.

Yeah, the mountains as well. The sad part of the mountains is that it has become very hidden. On another forum the posters there ( mostly new york to Florida to nc or Florida to nc transplants) were bragging and laughing about how the old mountain hillbillys had been replaced and mostly been out of sight, the problem was solved! I hate elitists with a passion... it drives a lot of my politics.

Hi, good morning. Over the last few days I have noticed more and more posts bring placed an into the incorrect threads. I myself have been guilty of doing the same especially during exciting or disappointing times. Just wanted to send a friendly reminder that each thread has a purpose and to remember to post things in the correct location. We are going to step up moderation slightly mainly by moving posts to the correct thread.

Thanks
