Gorebal warming hits North Carolina (FRIDAY OPEN THREAD)
Started falling here in the Charlotte area at around 4:45 this afternoon and it’s still coming down steadily. The forecast for my area calls for snow mixed with sleet, with possible accumulations between 6″ to 8″. That’s a big deal for us around here (hehehe). I might step outside in a little bit and capture a couple of early pix of the snow. Assuming I can open my front door in the morning, I’ll try to snag a few pix of what fell overnight. In the meantime, here are some user-submitted photos at WCNC.com of the snow falling in and around Charlotte.
Went to the grocery store earlier today for my normal weekly visit, and of course there wasn’t a lot of bread selection left. They didn’t have Sara Lee hot dog buns, so I had to settle for store brand 
Oh well, at least it was a 12 pack of buns, which solves the usual 10 hot dogs to a pack/only 8 buns to a pack dilemma …
Update – 8:39 PM: Got a few pix taken and uploaded. Please do not laugh at the one of me. I know it’s a little far awayish but it was taken by a neighbor who I believe might have had one too many Bud Lights and who insisted his truck be in the pic … I had to edit out the fingertips that were in it! Not only that, but I had on old baggy sweats and (obviously) pink snow boots. Not my finest fashion hour …

Kill Storm 2010 has arrived!!! (Fellow NC resident here.)
Snowball fight at ST’s!
(Hmmm… hot dogs sound real good right now….)
No snow here at the coast. We still have gorebal warming i guess.
Do you have any Sweetened Condensed Milk?
If so, mix a can of it with a roasting pan of fresh snow, maybe a little vanilla extract. Enjoy!
Cute pink boots!
Here in our little burg on the left coast, one of the favorites of mine is how far behind in the rain year and calendar year from getting normal precip. we always are. It’s been about 32, may 33 years since the forecasters (all three local network channels) weren’t screaming how bad the precip is this year and that the earth is just about to burn away next summer (every year).
I especially enjoyed it in 1997-98 when we got so much rain the instruments couldn’t handle it (somewhere north of 120″), and all of a sudden they had to change their tune (when the biggest deluge came, but it was pretty steady during the rainy season) because houses were floating down the river!
And another thing is el nino and la nina – each has been blamed for excessive moisture and a severe lack of moisture. Seriously. Kinda like Algore’s statistics.
And finally, an update on an old, familiar saying: There are lies, damned lies, statistics and anything out of the Goracle’s or Duh-1′s mouths.
You still look good
Word to the wise – take your time, and if it changes to ice, fuggedaboudit. Even this seasoned winter warrior from the land of ice cream and frozen beer doesn’t mess around on ice.
I wish I had a modest percentage of the fuel Algore used to travel globally selling his hoax. Our elder citizens who have to pay for heating oil would be very happy.
Gore’s global warming evidence seen here as well in Upstate South Carolina wiht at least three to four inches of snow and sleet and ice today ending with more snow this afternoon. Thinking of putting on my bathing suit and frolicking around in all the global warming today.
Still snowing up here in the triangle, though we didn’t get the 10 – 15″ they predicted as part of the “border counties.” I think we’ve gotten maybe 6″ or so according to a FB post by a neighbor who was brave enough to go outdoors with a yardstick.
You’re a braver woman than I am, I took some snow pictures too…through my dining room window
No snow but cold and wet down here by the USS North Carolina (the battleship, not the submarine)…
Understood, Chief!
