All Activity

On the way home earlier this evening the shield of snow finally relented around 7:30. Roads were with little exception entirely white but kept traversable. Fortunately though, I didn't witness any crashes or spinouts. When I got back and went to measure snow depth was very variable anywhere from 5-9" with a mean around 6.5". Later after 10 snow showers returned and added a bit more atop. For the sake of records I will mark it as 7" although this is one of the shakiest all snow measurements I've done. As far as my memory serves this felt like the most impressive winter storm I've seen since maybe 2015. 8F and completely calm. Flurries falling.

6z kind of nam’d us for Wednesday.

I hope the 6z Nam is right

Charlotte picked up 11.0” of snow yesterday. That tied December 29, 1880 for the fourth highest daily figure on record.

Welp, got a feeling that's gg for Richmond this winter. Another winter with no major snow. Oh well. Not one flake today in Chesterfield. Just cold and very windy

10.

Took this around 6 pm. Ended up with close to 11 inches here in Cornelius. She's a beaut, Clark!

I wish this thing would bomb out, NC stole my snow. Forecast was 5-8 inches and I have maybe an inch.

2-3 hours more snow in eastern NC as 500 mb low is still back around SC coast and slowly catching up to the surface storm out in the ocean. The precip will likely become much lighter once the 500 mb low has passed to the east of given locations, but it won't necessarily end entirely right away.

Yeah bro...gonna be interesting to say the least...onslow...craven...Jones and Carteret co....woooo

The slowest coastal low I have ever seen. We are talking 2 feet of snow in North Carolina.

Brunswick co...Pender co..Onslow co...Carteret co and craven co...holy hell right now

Man...that low is taking its sweet time. Wilmington area getting in on it now. Central nc already has to have totals of like 20 inches??? Or more?

‘13-‘14 taught me that I have a limit with enjoying winter. Something I never would have thought possible up to that point. I “burnt out” after that season. Coincidently moved to Texas in early ‘14 summer. Not because of the weather, but certainly didn’t miss MW/GL winter the couple years I was there.

Ok smarty....still way less than what I want!!! Lol

That’s terrible. To the cliff diving thread.

Damn it's still ripping in south wake!

Couple of weeks ago I was seeing maps that said AA temps for Feb. Shocker.

Slush waves at Montauk Saturday: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DUMHASwDwzb/?igsh=MXVndmZwanFiMHozbA==

Burlington 12:01am 2/1/26. 24hrs of snow ~7” total. Finally subsided around 1am. Heaviest precip 2-8pm.

Damn new bern is getting blasted! Where is everyone!¡¡ shit

The 50s did have some good coastals. I remember we moved into a new house in our town in NNJ on 2/29/56. Going to my new school 3/1 with a squeaky few inches of snow underfoot. A few weeks later all hell broke loose really solidifying my life of being a snow weenie. But there were some dud winters in the 50s that improved in the second half of the decade. Having had 2 feet of snow with the majority unmoved by melting or any other process reminds me that perhaps 8-12 would be more fun and a more manageable aftermath. With that said-we expect to be back before 3/1 (leaving tomorrow) so 2 feet in March is perhaps more manageable for us pedestrians and town snow removal.

There’s nuance to everything… and CC is a charged term that leads to a visceral reaction more than other factors. One could imagine a situation where a variety of factors influence the rate of something occurring, but doesn’t stop it from happening all together. The debate of “no coastal storms anymore due to fast flow and CC” vs “its snowing in the deep south on the coast” is severely lacking in nuance on both sides. It’s binary thinking that ignores context and oversimplifies the issues at hand for both points of the argument.

Let's just celebrate our little totals...3 inches in south Wake co...still snowing...but we are going to see crazy totals tomorrow

Seems short-lived on most OPs and ens guidance, with cold air waiting near by. Not to mention the seasonal trend of warmups being muted as we get closer in.
