Southeast Sanitarium - A Place to Vent
NorthHillsWx replied to Jonathan's topic in Southeastern States
The models are programmed to reset expectations inside the 10 day window -

I'm in the same boat. My fiancé and I had to buy wet paw wipes. Our mudroom is living up to its name! At least the ground has been frozen for a few days so there's been some relief -
Southeast Sanitarium - A Place to Vent

It's completely a guess but I feel the same way. At least they are showing several coastal storms or late bloomers in the Mid Atlantic. Cold is an issue (haven't heard that before). We still have a lot of winter to go but man, I haven't seen many runs in the last couple weeks even in fantasy land advertising a single flake for Raleigh. Hard to keep hope alive while burning through 2 months of prime climo relying entirely on a month that has let us down so frequently... -

I love how some of the talk in the Foothills/Mountains thread was mocking the doom and gloom from the main thread when they were just able to squeeze out a couple inches of snow on what was forecast to be a dry day! If that ever happened outside the mountains, I would never bicker again. Haven't seen a flake this winter! -
Yea, 2/1 snow ratios for someone in the mountains too...
-
24 was my low this morning. Slightly disappointed as I had hoped we would potentially sniff the teens. Maybe tonight with the wind lighter. Felt like winter walking out the door to let the dog out this morning
-
Good look for cold air and eastern trough... at the end of the GFS Op run. Maybe something will give going into February. Chasing 10+ day cold patterns has grown old...
-
Got down to 25 imby. Coldest night in awhile, 6 degrees below average. Too bad it's so much easier going 6 degrees above average for highs...
-
Might actually turn the heat on again today. That's a win this "winter," right?
-
Well, we've hit what's becoming the yearly rallying cry: February will save us! Prime climo be damned
-
Reached 32 briefly this morning. Felt amazing. Shot a limit of wood ducks before work. Nice not to be swatting mosquitoes
-
These 2 posts back to back just cracked me up... Ahh, life in the Southeast
-
Will probably be more active than this winter's thread the next couple months...
-
Warmer than average, wetter than average, below normal or no snow. 2019-20 might go down as my first winter period without seeing any snow. Cliff? Oh I'm off the cliff. I'm swimming with the sharks below
-
Haven't thrown in the towel yet but darn close to. Chasing storms 10+ days out only to have them turn to rain storms (and not even borderline ones) has taken the wind out of my sails with this "Pattern Change." I will, however, enjoy some winter-like days next week before we warm up and rain again
-
0.00" Today. Forecast certainly dried out from earlier in the week
-
yay?
-
The rain on Saturday looks to have pushed back to Saturday night. Also went from over and inch on the GFS a couple days ago to nothing today. NWS sounded somewhat bullish on a large area of rain in this morning AFD. Will be interesting to see if they change course at this afternoon's update. Might actually get a dry weekend!
-
Back to bleak mood on here... Cold air coming and storm systems riding the southern stream. I'd be concerned if models WERE showing snow, the kiss of death in these parts. We have the #1 ingredient coming: cold air, at least seasonable or below. I'll take our chances with a storm in the next 10 days.
-
Agreed. Don't think the magnitude of cold has changed, just turned to suppression city...
-
0.72" Monday-Monday night. Couple claps of thunder mixed in
-
12z GFS brings a brief period of light sleet/snow to northern parts of central NC Saturday Morning. Obviously not acc but would be refreshing after the Hellish weather we've been stuck in
-
Use statements like these with caution in these parts...
-
With the odds and Vegas stacked against us, we will find a way to prevail and score a "Big Dog," just like when TL16 outduels Burrow tonight. This heatwave in Dec-January is akin to Clemson's escape vs UNC: looked like the sky was falling and the season was lost, but in the end, all it takes is one key play or pattern change, and you come out on top. Just like 44-16!

0.24" overnight. Currently 66 with some sprinkles remaining. Looks like some big totals to our SW where that line of storm/showers is training. Got down to a chilly 65 last night. 65. For a low. On January 13th. That is not a typo. There are definitely glass half empty people but this winter gives credence to their perspective. I thought last year was bad. This is worse. At least we were sitting above normal snowfall this time last year.
