  1. 18z GFS is a clinic of how to establish a semi-permanent SER. Ugly doesn’t even do that run justice
  2. Euro has been terrible last few winters with handling cold in the long range. Honestly I think we continue the pattern of warmups, rain, cold, repeat, but with a bit more frequency of the cold snaps compared to last winter as it does appear more cold will be available on the continent. I do not buy an extended cold period at all
  3. High of 39 yesterday. Low of 22. My gauge at the farm in Louisburg bottomed out at 13.9! Raleigh is an oven
  4. They’re out brining roads between here and louisburg. Don’t think they even touched the brine supply last winter. W
  5. It’s gotten so bad that I’m hoping for a couple hours of freezing drizzle in the morning. And even that is a long shot now. Ops dumping cold into Midwest should scare everyone
  6. 18z GFS was a disaster but ensembles have the pattern we want. I’m not getting excited until we’re in the 7 day range
  7. Not as cold as forecast for my location. Bottomed out at 24.7
  8. 12z GFS is a dream run for mountain folks around the 30th
  9. We picked up 0.19” of rain last night after reaching a high of 71
  10. We don’t need wall to wall cold but getting 3 cold days then needing 3 weeks to refresh is the pattern we’ve been in for 3+ years.
  11. EPS and GEFS are downright disgusting heading into January. Really no sign of a pattern change on modeling except for a zonal flow and PAC puke to intensify through the end of the year. From today through Jan 1 I bet we see as many 65+ degree days as days with lows below freezing
  12. Tarheel is back… seasons over. Might as well hang em up till next thanksgiving
  13. When RDU breaks the snowless record the main forum is going to explode
  14. It’s absolutely pathetic. 18z GFS barely gets it below freezing for a night into SC. Just a day ago there were low 20’s pre Christmas into the Florida panhandle on some models
  15. Probably going to be close. I’d think slightly below is likely still
  16. Jan 16, 2022 was our last 0.25” of ice. So not that long ago but it’s been exceedingly rare. We used to specialize in ice, maybe not full blown ice storms, but most systems following a cold snap would at least start as an hour or two of ice
  17. I remember a bad winter was one where we had 2-3 winter weather advisories for freezing rain with maybe a light snow or snow to rain scenario. I mean not even counting the snow drought, we can’t even get a glaze of ice. That used to happen multiple times a year with CAD
  18. When the air in our source region is running +20 we are effectively screwed
  19. Agreed, the first half of December was better than expected. Guess that got my hopes up when models appeared to be building on something
  20. I’m 100% confident the torch will verify after our 2-3 day cold snap. We’re in a climate now where warmth wins out 8-9 times out of 10 and models struggle to figure out the type of warmth that exists now. This is a frustration post but I am at a loss. People are like it’s only midway through December but it’ll be January by the time this torch passes. Just a couple days ago we’d trended away from the post Christmas torch to repeated cold shots now it’s legitimately just a few post front cold days then the oven
  21. Chasing week 5+ weeklies already… Hello darkness my old friend…
  22. If you like cold weather, the last 24 hours was not the trend you want
