And a heated blanket or two. And a generator. Maybe a pellet stove or a solar solution for heat. You can survive the heat. You cant survive the cold, especially with no power and secondary heat source. You're gonna freeze your rocks off Mack!
-
Or.....we all realize that Mack was the curse of the SE forum and his departure brings a 10 year run of 20+ inch snowfalls and below normal temps, including 6" of snow on Christmas eve. Meanwhile in Iowa they're playing golf in January and rejoicing in the growing season being extended for 2 months. Thanks Mack!

You'll spend a lot of time up in Wisconsin. Those weekend strolls over to Madison and up to Wisconsin Dells will be amazing. Hope you like camping and fishing. Definitely an outdoor sportsmans paradise.

Nailed it. Breaking out the cayak!
-
Dang, this really validated!! Snowing up in the VA and WVA hill country along the I81 and I77 corridors.
-
Who's reeling this one in? Oh wait, did it already go "poof"? Thats ok, I'm getting a dusting per day right now of the yellow snow.
-
When no one is here to see your post, its like it never even happened. You should stir the pot and start a snow thread for it.

First sunburn of the season on Belews Lake today. Stunning early spring weather!
-
50s and 60s starting Sunday will keep the grass growing all the way to the VA border. I already mowed once last weekend! So for most of the forum spring is springing, crickets may already be chirping and this winter is in the books. I saw snow twice and they were both low impact events. I would rate that a C+ on the type of winter I wanted to see and a solid F on what was forecasted for the triad.

Just landed at GSO. So happy to see the snowglobe as we popped out of the clouds. I dont care what radar shows, there's a lot of snow in those clouds. I saw it! Lol.
-
Looks like a paste job in Stuart VA. Sticking to the tree branches and flagpole. Moderate snow.
-
Grass going white in Stuart Va. 1500'. No thermometer on my webcams (need to fix that). But still snowing steady.
-
Getting real close to rippin' fatties status up in Stuart. Edit - full on snow now. I can see dimes falling on the security cams.
-
All snow from the first drop on the farm webcams up in Stuart Va. 1500'. Light snow now, should pick up quickly.
-
Sleeting hard in uptown CLT per my daughter.
-
I'm in TX getting ready to hop a flight back to GSO and where I was reporting steady rain for the last 36 hours straight, I can tell you the wind is RIPPING on the back side of this storm. Not looking forward to this flight as this thing is really winding up.
-
This thread will be loaded by midnight tonight. Lotta broken hearts across the northern tier of NC coming. I have a hunch folks down east will "see" some pretty snow that is rate driven with very little to show for it. We've all been here before.
-
Say it ain't so NAM! I can't be flying back into GSO on Thursday afternoon in a foot of snow. That dog won't hunt. I'm sorry, but I'll be doing my best to throw a lasso around that thing when it crosses Texas to see if I can slow it down. If it wants to wait until after 4pm I'm all in!
-
There is nothing....and I mean nothing....that would indicate a pattern shift before March 1. And the odds for RDU / Central Piedmont drop significantly at that point. So its likely a safe bet. Outside of a freak tango of overnight cold and pop-up LP system, there really arent any ducks on the long range pond. We cant even get a chunk of the polar vortex to break off and make national news.
-
So he's saying its a bit "moist"?
-
We are so far from a winter pattern it isnt even funny. You look at what it going on in the mountain west and that tells you all you need to know. Colorado is measuring every snowfall in multiple feet. Another record year out there. And here we sit relying on freak events and perfect timing to satisfy cravings. Its gonna be a rough 9 months to next November.
-
I'm really hoping we dont end up with a late spring pattern shift that results in a stormy / severe pattern. Its been a while since we had widespread spring severe outbreaks and I cant deal with this rain every other day. I'm really hoping for a pattern flip, but be careful what you wish for.
-
Trying to bait us all back in with a mythical Valentine's Day storm huh? Not having it!! I'll enjoy my 44° and mostly cloudy.....which is a helluva lot more likely to verify this winter.
-
Still in the 50's thru 240 and no obvious pattern change in sight. I'm talking polar vortex lobe breaking off and crashing into florida and killing the orange crops kinda pattern change. Thats pretty much what its gonna take right now. So I'll leave this here and spend the rest of winter in the sanitarium. Stick a fork in this winter cuz its well past done. Time to spread the pre-emergent.
-
The most truth ever spoken here. I predict a cold and rainy spring transitioning to a very nice May followed by 2 months of dry, followed by an August and September where it rains every weekend.
