Yea, it began as snow and I remember transitioned to a driving, freezing rain in the teens by like 5am, when I had awakened for school...which didn't happen. Then by afternoon there was ponding everywhere and in the 50s.
Just realized I never threaded this in the NE subforum, which I usually do....I prefer to update in here, rather than the main forum.

My guess is that is due to the warmer phases outperforing the colder phases as a result of CC, so overall less amplitutude would correlate to cold in the mean. However, I will take high amplitude in the colder phases.
This is what I expect...that mid December, phase 6 period to get pushed back and muted. Phase 6 is actually decent, -WPO ish in December, so it would probbaly have to stall in 5...at least for NE. Probably not for your area and the mid atl.
