I really despise wedges. They are never strong enough to give us wintry precip here and in the spring they often ruin our severe weather chances. The only time i like them is the rare summer wedge that cools things off.

There really isn’t anything on this that says snow for Raleigh. Already difficult enough to get snow but we don’t have a big low in SE Canada nor do we have stout ridge in western provinces. Building Atlantic ridge.

And yet somehow the surface says big ice storm. I guess we will see.

Speaking of which...

Learned this morning that my grandma tested positive yesterday. Came the day before she was supposed to get boosted (which was today).

She is the definition of high risk with the issues that she has.

Having said that, so far at least, she has been okay outside of talking out of her head (saying stuff that didn't make any sense), which may be this, or may be the illness exacerbating dementia (which she likely has and has tried to hide it at times).
 
For reference…here are the past 2 “big” snow events for central NC

Nothing beats goats for keeping the land clear.

Some people use em as an eco friendly alternative to lawn mowing . They take their goats and have them eat the grass and weeds in their lawn for people for a fee. There’s a nomad guy out in Oregon who lives in his own bicycle wagon and has a herd of goats . He just travels around town and asks different people if his goats can graze in their yard and he makes cheese from their milk.

Your very adamant about this threat despite bad trends and excited in general . Not a bad thing but a different version from the usually pessimistic no snow. Weenisnow

I gotcha, I’m just going off past events man. I see a lot of potential here. I want snow but ice makes me money. Hard to be pessimistic when the pattern looks great. I’ll dial it down some.

I went to the property I have for sale, it's only a few miles northwest of my house but it seemed to have more snow. I'm raising the price.

Do you honestly think most buyers give a crap about how much snow one locale gets ?

Man, when we were looking in Durham, I told my wife nothing south of 40 period and preferably north of 85. We ended up 7 miles north of the highway. More latitude almost always wins.
