That's because if it rains/snows here and the temp is near 32, life stops.

Damn Im going to waste here someone hire my ass.

Weathermen are not real Meteorologist sure they have their little certificate but they are newscasters and get all their infor from the NWS. Now the NWS will always error on the safe side so they put the 30%. Looking at the models the system in Mexico is going to be kept south by the system in the midwest. Which goes back to what I was saying about the us (piedmont) not getting and snow due to the mountains. The mountains will push the air up into the atmosphere and disturb it for awhile when the system is back together it will be over Raleigh. So I can see Raleigh getting snow but not Winston Salem and defiantly not Charlotte.

you're not exactly right you know...

[Squirrel]

you're not exactly right you know...

Why is that?

[Jase]

Because the snow clouds aren't getting 'disturbed'...snow's getting dumped in the mountains so the clouds can rise over them. Because the system is so starved for moisture, it will gain some gusto from the atlantic ocean on it's way out. It's not as if the mountains are breaking the clouds apart and they have to put themselves together. If it weren't for raleigh's proximity to the atlantic, this wouldn't be true.

But everybody knows the part about the piedmont not getting snow from the west. The wildcard was the moisture from the southwest.

And I was right about the gulf low pressure.

Its my theory.

We were halfway to Atlanta when they canceled the art thing...and it was freaking 46 out. Stupid Atlanteans.

haha...wtf were you trying to say??

I should have left my downslope map up huh squirrel...Piedmont gets screwed from snow via clipper systems over the MTNs....hell i might drive up to Boone Saturday. theyve been getting pounded this week...and it doesnt even show up on radar...that upslope is crazy. thats why Utah has such great snow.

wouldnt count on much from the SW. But i hope we have a Flizzard. I have almost a full gallon of eggnog...that poo keeps forever and is very nutritious.
