It’s really defied the theory the Arctic needs time to “reload” after a big cold snap. It’s just been cold shot after cold shot since Christmas. Impressive stuff given what was unanimously forecast to be a torch. Sadly it’s been dry but it is the first time since 2017/18 we in Raleigh have had two events in one winter season. Still looking for that big snow but Tuesday nights event was awesome

We did not keep the clouds. Only made it to 36.1 which was surprising given lack of CAA or meaningful snow cover. Now down to 31.

Knowing no other context one would be tempted to say “incoming” if they saw this posted

Without blocking any storm especially a miller B is going to be timing critical for wintry weather. The HP is going to be transient. For this to work we need the energy out west to eject cleanly to align with the high. We’ve struggled to get our SW to work out this year so that’s a huge concern. Given the wedge look and timing on the backside of the cold push this pattern favors ice but getting the system in quicker and timed with that high is the only way to get any snow from this. I fear we’re tracking an ice storm and don’t see a way around that on the winter weather side of things

Holy sh*t that’s a monster wedge on the 31st on 12z GFS. 1045 sitting in central PA. Storm is hung up (weird evolution) but that is a STRONG wedge as shown

I think the FV3 handled this event the best

Florida and Louisiana currently have a deeper snowpack than most of the midwest including the dakotas and southern Canada. I don’t know how many times I’ll be able to say that in my life https://www.weather.gov/nerfc/snow

If we keep this thick cloud cover I highly doubt we make it to the upper 30’s, or even above freezing. It’s currently 18 with thick clouds. Will be interesting to see how temps play out the rest of the day

Farm in Franklin county got down to 7.9!

Low of 14 this morning! Coldest of the year and coldest since Jan 2022

Already down to 19. Let’s see where we bottom out

I will not get emotionally involved tracking a storm again. I will not get emotionally involved tracking a storm again. I will not get emotionally involved tracking a storm again…..

Brick pulled in the last one from 13 days out. We’re in the short range now

Almost wall to wall cold in January

High of 29.3 after a low of 19.2. Despite being well below freezing all day the sun vaporized the snow in exposed areas. High of 28.4 yesterday. Impressive cold

Once in a lifetime event for the furthest southern posters and snow for pretty much the whole forum. Sledding with my 3 yo. Absolutely gorgeous out. Wish we’d gotten more but after losing the storm then being saved by the NW trend in the last 24 hours it feels like a huge win. Deep winter feel. 22 degrees full sun and solid snow pack

1.25” storm total. Congrats to those getting dumped on. I’m happy, was able to shovel my driveway and my kids will get to enjoy a real snow day tomorrow. Now let’s Chase a big dog.

Hoping you stay frozen and not freezing. Winding down here now. I’ll get final measurement after it stops. Definitely piled up some since I last measured. Good event here given cold temps and drama over last 3 days. Kids will enjoy it tomorrow

Weenies: shovel your snow piles high and make sure theyre in the shade

You can see the coastal starting to crank

They are locked in. Just got a video from a friend in Morehead city, looks like a blizzard. I bet we see some double digit totals near the coast

It‘s funny that our winter weather advisory storm is going to be much more impressive than the warning storm from a couple weeks ago.

It was decided at hour 310 on the 18z happy hour GFS nearly two weeks ago. It’s the #Brickstorm

Pretty awesome watching it snow at 21 degrees. Not normal here

Ladies and gentlemen, we’ve done it. 1 inch on the snow board. Still snowing steady. The #brickstorm broke the drought
