Fall/Winter 2021 Weather Thread

I got it, I must have accidently removed the line where I said old wives tales are not very accurate lol....the thing about them is that people remember the few times they actually follow but not the many that they dont. My favorite is the ring around the moon one as for me personally that is the one that seems to be the most accurate at predicting snow in the winter.

Gonna be cold rainy day Mon/mon night might see some snow in the NW and NE corners of the state,.....then the latest run had this beauty in the mid range. Eastern NC gets pasted with a foot in this one

Bring it! Tired of not killing ducks!

Dont be surprised if you see snow in parts of NC tomorrow night into Monday, maybe even a few slushy inches on grass and cars and elevated surfaces as the low cranks up offshore.....

The models all agree rain will mix with or change to snow for the NE quad of the state....

The Euro model



GFS totals though this is probably overdone though the Tidewater of VA could get surprised here....

To highlight how quickly the Colorado fires exploded these people were simply doing their grocery shopping.

Tomorrow night gonna be a big slap in the face and a lot of people wont believe till they see it but its coming....

 

[bigdrumnc]

Keep us posted on the weather predicted coming up! I love that scenario!

Too late for deer season.

Too late for deer season.

Doing deer drives today and it was hot and as humid as I ever remember the last day being around here

 

[QuietButDeadly]

It was still 71 degrees at 11:00 pm last night. Crazy!!!!

 

[Dick]

lite steady spring like rain in Pitt County right now. Still warm out.

 

[shaggy]

That NW trend is a killer for us every time.

Yeah, we were fishing in the mountains the past two days. In the Boone/BR area, it was 65 degrees up there yesterday on Jan. 1. And not just 65 for a high, but the day started and finished at 60 degrees. Now they're expecting 4-6 inches of snow tonight. That will be whiplash.

What does the rest of january look like?

Seasonal really nothing too crazy cold and nothing much above 60 or so for highs......lots of 40/50 highs, below freezing or at least the 30's for lows.....no real big fantasy storm last run so through mid month it looks kinda like Jan should.

It was still 71 degrees at 11:00 pm last night. Crazy!!!!

It really is crazy, that is 20-25 degrees above normal for the AVERAGE HIGH for the day lol.....its easily 30-40 degrees above normal for that time of night. If it was that far below normal temps would be well below zero....

So it killed the snow chance ?

The northern pied.ont still looks to see some s ow but those.of us further east are now outside looking in at all the fun

 

[Sportsman]

Never thought we’d be seeing snow in the East tomorrow.

 

[timber]

Had ac on in house yesterday and today some. Tomorrow they calling for snow. Some something on news where they were closing Orange County school tomorrow because of expected snow. Guess typical NC weather. The good thing think I am far enough East not to see snow this time.

 

[45/70 hunter]

Orange County Schools closed for a snow day

The liberal way....

It sounds like I’ve got 3 inches of rain so far, lights dimming. Possibly an exaggerated estimate but boy do I wonder if I have shingles left lol. Can’t wait to see the muck and mire in daylight. Put in a new gravel road last week, hopefully it didn’t wash away.

 

[Justin]

Surprised the work phone didn’t ring off the hook. Three trees down along the road within a mile of my house. One of them explains the thump I thoughts I heard around 3:30

 

[Duckmauler dhc]

Oh wonderful…..2.5 inches and counting here and it looks like another 8 hours to go. We’re gonna end up with 5+ inches. Oh well…..I enjoyed not having to fish mud for a little while anyways. Back to monsoon season.

 

[pinkfletch]

Never thought we’d be seeing snow in the East tomorrow.

Remember, we had thunder last Wed. night...

 

[HotSoup]

Won't be a drought after this. Outside a hurricane I've never seen it rain so hard. Glad I'm not driving in this.

Just got back home . Made it almost to the lake but the gusts went up to 45, the lightning got intense, water standing on the road and blowing the truck sideways. trees down. Decided I did not want to be on the lake in a 14' and turned around. My wife called while I was on the way back. Son called to make sure I was not out. What kind of idiot do they think I am??? Better post this before the power goes out again!

 

[ncscrubmaster]

Pouring rain in Advance and the wind is pretty bad. Lots of trees down but we still have power.

 

[bwfarms]

Tell you this much, the flash flood warning klaxon alerts are a long time too late. Doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand the odds are in favor.

 

[153]

2.5" rain so far in Roxboro. I can't remember the wind being this high and constant this far inland in a while. We still have power and internet. I glad ground was not we before or there would be tons more trees down. Y'all be safe and smart.

Spoke too soon, calls rolling in
