You predict any load/high-volume issues if we get into a real ballgame here?

The hardware is good. We should be okay; Might have to disable some forum features to speed things up.

 

[Tarheel1]

Didn’t we just spend the past 2 days trashing the GFS on how bad it was after day 6?

GFS is the worst model until your pants explode from an op run

 

[Shawn]

The GEFS members left a lot to be desired, btw.

 

[Arcc]

Anyone starting a betting prop on over/under forum crashes?

If anyone took zero….

 

[Shawn]

The site crash had nothing to do with resources. Unless you count a broken bank account.

Wen retirement? How many years have I said I'm so sick of my job?!

Don't rush it,
It sneaks up on you faster than you think.
The first 6 months to a year are bliss.
After that,
It's boring AF.

[Shawn]

The storm(s) were never gone. The operational runs are just all over the place, which is expected at this kind of lead-time.
Grumpy CAE man still all in!

We don't consider denial of service attacks on our signup/login form a hack.
We handled it on our web application firewall quickly.

Would you rather ?

1. ONE big dog 24-30" Storm but nothing for the next five years
2. ONE good storm 12-18" but then nothing for three years
3. one year with two 6-10" events then nothing for two years
4. 3-4 small 2-4/3-6" with a Carolina Mixed bag every year but NEVER more than probably 8" except every 10-15yrs

I'm in my fourth year. It's still bliss lol.

I think 3 sounds like a better option. Two 6-10" events and if it was snow on top of snow thats close to 20" of snow on the ground. And you only have to wait 2 years for more snow instead of 5.

 

[WolfpackHomer91]

4 sounds like my childhood in the 90s/00s actually

4 sounds like my experience living in Indiana.

 

[BullCityWx]

4 would be fine if it has staying power

Did its job already! Now we time the SS wave! ?

 

[superjames1992]

It’s supposed to be 72 with precipitation on Saturday. Can it snow at that temperature?

I would take 1 because I’ve never experienced anything like that, but after I’ve experienced that I’d probably go with 4 in the future.

But in reality what we seem to have is one 2-4”/3-6” event and then nothing for the next five years, so reality takes the worst of 1 and 4.

 

[BullCityWx]

It's neither here nor there but the GFS was within a whisker of dropping a 30" storm from Winston to Durham. Three hours with a slightly warm layer.

No but it can hail ?

It was in the 70s right before the great Blizzard of 73 here.
