Cold seems to be backing off for tonight’s system in CAD areas. See WWA hoisted for a lot of mountain/foothills areas but icing looks extremely limited now

High of 52 after a morning low of 34. Was quite raw this afternoon, picked up .24” of rain and temps dropped to mid 40s

I guess it’s just a spot without any pavement and a lot of farmland. Just happens to have a weather station there. Mine is actually on top of a hill so I’m sure there are colder spots on the farm too. Last year with snow cover it was exceptionally cold compared to RDU

It’s just north of Louisburg airport and typically the coldest spot in the county. Usually drops 3-4 degrees on the car thermometer between getting off the pavement on 401 and when you pull in driveway. Louisburg airport was actually 19 this morning too. My weather station is less than 1/2 mile from their sensor

22.4 was the low at my house, farm was 19.3 which matches the airport next to it.

Euro with a big storm around December 9 and looks to be setting up for another at end of run

Also of note, current DP is down to 14!

Shewww it’s cold. 23.7 still some time to fall. Farm is sitting at 19.4 this is real cold for November

From a snow accumulation perspective last winter left much to be desired for a lot west of US1 but we had 3 WSW and 3 events that stayed below freezing throughout the event IMBY. Growing up here that didn’t happen all the time. I’ve lived here long enough to know that doesn’t happen every year. Think we can all agree we are missing that big coastal storm, and 2018 was the last time we got one. That being said central and eastern NC would take last years winter almost any year. Foothills folks are in purgatory

I think we were BN December through February with temps and central N.C. saw snow all three months. In these parts it doesn’t get much more wall to wall than that

I’d forgotten about this. Last year was a wall to wall winter for the state

Laying the ground for deep snowpack north of us as we enter prime climo. I’m not mad

Lakes areas looking at their best start to winter in a long time. Models yo yoing on extent of SER going into December but a lot of systems over the next few weeks with an active STJ. Will help the drought areas, 90% of NC is in some level of drought now

Hopium is strong in here, and I’m here for it! If anything December looks to feature some cold in the east and the southern stream looks to become active. Volatile seems like a good word

in Fab Febs defense, it actually produced our (my) biggest storm since 2018 last year
