Looks like we make it through yet another February without a trackable threat. I know RDU-east got that February storm last year but there have been so many blanks recently that it’s really becoming a spring month. This is most on the forums snowiest climo month and now it’s just a segway into official spring.

Even with that look it shows temps in 40s across NC piedmont and mid 30s in Virginia

Won’t be anything close to offset this week of +10 to +25 AN readings. Winter is over for the piedmont. We’re chasing freezes now

Finished with 0.78”. Good rain but that won’t dent the drought, was hoping for over an inch at least

Sitting at 0.75” with rain still falling

Could push 80s late week. My point click says 76 which is aggressive for RAH

Low of 26.6 this morning

Always sad seeing the season end. Hate February just doesn’t work often anymore for anyone outside the mountains. I am thankful for a cold winter and 3 accumulating events. Still have one last pile holding on from my driveway

Almost the entire state of NC is now in severe drought and areas around Charlotte have slipped into the rare exceptional drought category

When sun angle isn’t even mentioned in mid February, you know the outlook sucks

Hey now, Wake county is most populous county in the state

At least western resorts can salvage their ski seasons. Looking extremely wet out there rest of this month and those insane snow droughts will be dented

Got down to 32 overnight

February isn’t a winter month anymore, it’s the new March. Last years snow was as fluky as March snow used to be

Raleigh is the only major city on the east coast below normal for snowfall this season…

Low of 52.5 and high of 64.7 after a high of 69.2 yesterday

Sustained cold/BN temps and frequent daytime highs in 40s. I’m sure we’ll have freezes into april but that’s not unusual spring weather here.

Winter is over for the piedmont

December 2000 takes the cake. We went from 12-18” to literally nothing and had no clue it was a total fail until well into the day of. This one we knew the dry slot was likely on top of us, it just sucked bc it snowed a lot literally 360 degrees around us

Sounds familiar this year

We got less than 1” QPF from both big storms combined here. Severe drought and in serious need of one of these events to not dry up 48 hours before

Is GSP sticking with their “significant” to “extreme” snow risk this weekend lol

Bottomed out at 26.1 this morning. Last day for the sleet remnants I believe.

Topped out at 44 already down to freezing. I’ve gotta say, I am so impressed with sleet staying power. The 3/4” we received more than 2 weeks ago is STILL visible in shaded areas. All the snow melted quick but remnants of sleet hang on. Impressive to say the least.

Up and down and showers- sounds like… Spring Jokes aside it’s been a remarkable cold pattern the east coast has been locked in and no one should expect cold like this to continue as long as it has in ANY winter. But seeing the pacific firehose into west coast again tells me it’s done, and any cold shots likely will be followed by significant warmups. A spring pattern going into mid-late February doesn’t necessarily mean a warm pattern. Spring is up and down but the ups are more significant than the past couple months. If RDU hadn’t failed at the last storm I think every major city on east coast would finish above normal snowfall and below normal temps for the winter. As it stands I think Raleigh is the only city on the east coast BN for snowfall (seasonal, not to date)
