ICON coming in with a central NC snow “storm”

I was at Clemson for that, my freshman year. Was an awesome snowstorm! Pulled several cars out of the ditches on perimeter road with my truck.

Strangely a cool pool ULL snow event seems more plausible than snow by normal means in this sh*t pattern. We can’t do normal right so how bout we try the ‘exotic’ look? About a 1/100 chance of this happening as GFS is really the only model onboard but hey, that’s probably the closest to digital snow anyone in this forum has gotten this year! GEFS has several members showing more southern solutions, btw. Still very, very low probability

32.8 with extremely heavy frost this morning

Beautiful week coming up. Pretty excited for sunshine and 60’s!

Cold day today, been sitting around 46 last couple hours. Picked up 0.31” yesterday to continue the wet week. 1.23” total for the week. Ground is officially the consistency of soup in my poorly drained backyard. Next weeks warmup project will be installing a French drain.

Wait I take back what I said. The 12z GFS is definitely 100% right. Look at the kuchera map from the GFS, it literally puts Raleigh and Raleigh alone in a snow hole

Yes, cold chasing moisture behind a rapidly departing offshore LP on the 10-day GFS, what could possibly go wrong?

Doesn’t count as measurable snowfall you need at least 0.01”. God our bar is low and it’s still a challenge to reach it

Hate to say it, but if a late February SSW event is what we’re hanging out hats on for a winter storm in the south, the fat lady has sung. Looks like a blanking for the entire forum outside of the NW flow areas in the mountains. Any cold pushes are too transient in the progressive nina pattern were stuck in and even though were getting more rain than one would expect from a nina, its always associated with a warmup. Time to worry about our soggy yards and what were going to do to fix them during next weeks taste of spring.

Wintry mix right now. Rain, sleet, a few flakes. 38 degrees

Latest HRRR brings some snow east of 95 in a heavy burst. I think some areas could get a taste of winter

Misery index was the highest in my lifetime. We’ve had snowless Januarys in my life but couple that with the hottest January of my lifetime and lack of absolutely anything to track within 7 days, and the rash of rainy/foggy days, this makes January 2022 easily the worst January of my life (weather wise).

35.8 with moderate rain here. Absolutely brutal weather

Cousin in Richmond reported a surprise 1/2” of snow from a heavy burst this morning. Brother in Urbana on the bay has a dusting. If we can hang onto the precip long enough tonight we may have a shot at a few surprises…

GFS shows a plethora of possible hits on the 18z run. Do I think any will happen? Absolutely not. But it’s not a torch like we were thinking a few days ago and there is a lot of energy flying around, a lot of good storm tracks. Fly in the ointment…. Sigh….. cold air availability

Euro with a major storm 10 days out. Notice I said major storm, not major snowstorm. But it’s close

Tough to be more miserable/depressing

Interesting to see some CAMS bringing in some snow for central and eastern NC before the precip finally exits Friday. Difference is timing between them and the Euro solution, which keeps precip further south and doesn’t hold onto it long enough for the cold air to catch up. Regardless, would likely be only mood flakes if anything frozen fell, but I’d take anything at this point after this slog of rain and fog we’re stuck in.

This is comical. This should be a major winter storm, but I don’t even know if it’s possible anymore

Picked up 0.36” of rain yesterday afternoon through this morning

0.37” today. Currently a spring-like 61.5 and gorgeous out

The mid Atlantic forum has created a thread chasing a 1/2” snow on the RGEM. That’s how bad this winter is

Is it over if it never began?
