The Graupel Has Arrived!
Just a quick post before a more comprehensive update in a little while. I wanted to let you all know that the cold air is, in fact working its way in. I was an eyewitness to a graupel siting at the Crossroads Starbucks in Cary at 10:45. Some of you may be wondering what in the heck graupel is. It’s a snow pellet that has been rimed by a coating of ice. But that’s not really important. The important part is that the we are just on the cusp of the cold air working its way down to the surface. We’re in a relative lull in the precip shield now, but should see things pick up after lunch. And some of you have expressed concern over some nameless on-air meteorologists poo-pooing the event. While they are right to say that the most QPF will be south and east of Raleigh, that does not mean that we won’t see a decent shot ourselves. more later…trex

…..And the little boy pleaded and pleaded for pony for Christmas. His parents told him again and again, that the prospects for the pony were growing dim. And when Christmas Day arrived, alas, there was no pony under the Christmas tree, only a pile of pony @#%&. Everyone felt sad for the little boy, but he dug into the pile of @#%& with mad abandon, obviously looking for the object of his intense desire. And his dismayed parents said “What in the world are you doing, what are you looking for in that pile of @#%& ??” And he replied “I know what I asked Santa for, and there’s a pony in there somewhere!!”
We, too, are waiting for the PONY.
