Aside being a fly fishing nerd, I'm a weather geek. You've probably noticed this, as the bulk of my posts start off with the weather. We have seen everything from rain to sleet, a little bit of ice, and we've seen snow this winter. Since this is North Carolina, we have seen a few thunderstorms as well. Computer models (which are large, high tech computers that forecast weather...It's what the NWS, the Weather Channel, and local news sources use to aid in forecasting) have been suggesting a significant snowstorm for the Carolinas Tuesday/Tuesday night/Wednesday of next week. I have watched the storm as it continued to be suggested by the computer models close to 2 weeks ago. Now that we are closing in on 4 days away from the event, it looks like this powerful low pressure shooting out of the Gulf of Mexico has it's sights set on North Carolina (and the Southeast US). I'm not saying we will definitely see a major snowstorm here in the Carolinas, but judging by the looks of things currently, well, watch out!! Get ready for more high, muddy water...Joy...
