  1. Brother, you are an inspiring poster !! I too watched Margie, as a teenager. She was good . 95-96 was closest to 77-78 with just over 50 inches in Pennington gap un my years of observations. Incidentally, Wise seasonal state record of 123.5 was recorded that winter.
  2. There have been times we had a ser in tandem with a -nao, particularly when there's a trough out west. A -pna. Or, when the SER is there when a -NAO sets up. Either case, the SER almost always gets beat down .
  3. Late 70's winters were extremely cold/snowy here in Lee County. 72" reported in Pennington gap area in 77-78.
  4. Exactly the way it looked here in Lee County this morning.
  5. I remember the days of yore and big snows in this area in November. Just curious, had that tropical system not been in the sw Atlantic, whether the trough would be situated farther East. Saw that alluded to in another forum.
  6. Excellent discussion guy's! I remember November '76 well. First flurries the 6th. 1st measurable snow the 13th with 3-4in. Below 1500 ft. 4-6" above. Very cold month that heralded the infamous winter of 77.
  7. Let's not forget, the Euro does have a warm bias. Even though it is the best medium range model, it does have it's flaws. Not only the warm bias but, also it not being precise in terrain detail in our area. I.e; the higher terrain along the ky/va border. Much of Buchanan County is not within the higher elevated high knob landform like northern Lee , Wise and Russel Counties are. The snow map clearly shows the Model sees it as it is.
  8. Good luck on that weak to moderate moDIke. Lol.
  9. Peak here now. 2 weeks behind schedule. Amazing how late it is.
  10. Good stuff John. You would think coming up with what caused the change irt the Nao state from those early years to now could be the key to forecasting it's state. Maybe it is just a cyclical thing but, I'm thinking probably not. Even if it is cycles, what drives those? What's the catalyst ? For whatever reason, maybe it's something from the stratosphere or gw induced . Anyway you slice it it's hard to believe it's just by chance.
  11. Same here in the Cumberland gap area. Extremely cold and snowy January following a 10 inch Christmas Snowfall.
  12. Those years you listed stadium were as you said. 77 Nov. Was mild till after 20th then winter set in with a vengeance , long, cold and snowy. 86 was a mild Nov. Then slightly colder than avg. Winter with very snowy spine of apps eastward(note: 2-3 feet of snow April 87 here ). 09-10 cold / snowy Dec thru Feb. . A nws statistic several years ago had a correlation of 60% odds of cold winter when Nov is cold. So, some greater prob. If it's cold.
  13. Right with you on that Carvers. There may even be some fairly strong north downsloping winds in our area of which would cut back on rain amounts here but if euro track pans out, expect rains back to east ky at least for a time.
  14. If it's center comes into nw nc as depicted on Euro, it's rain shield will cover ne tn.
  15. That is more than likely way underdone !
  16. Winter 95-96 Wise, Virginia set state seasonal snow record , 123.4 inches! recorded 52 inches at my local. That feb. storm was followed by record cold. Pennington gap recorded low of -21 the 4th with a high of -4 !
