Same here. I came from the old Eastern forums in the early 2000s. Just can't remember my handle from all those years ago. Been a pleasure talking with you guys and look forward to a lot more down the road.

You guys don't know how lucky and blessed you are up there to be seeing snow. I haven't seen a flake of snow down this way in almost 2 years coming this January. I'm glad you guys are getting it. Were in a horrible stretch east of the mountains with no snow. Absolutely terrible. Hoping for better days in the near future.

Closing in on 5 inches here and still pouring.

Same here buddy.

Worst severe storm I've experienced in the last 20 or so years today in sw Rutherford. It was bad. Trees down everywhere. Lots of damage.

Man we got hammered here in sw Rutherford today just south of 74 bypass right off of 221 south. Worst severe storm I've seen in the last 20 or so years. Trees uprooted everywhere. Tops of trees snapped all around the community. Trees blocking the road on all ends. Had to be 70mph winds and just under golf ball size hail for at least 10 mins straight. I had a standard size refrigerator propped up against my building in the back yard and it ended up 50 yards away in my neighbors yard. Our neighbors trampoline ended up flying through our yard and ended up about a football field away in pieces. Just south of 74 bypass to the SC state line seemed to be the worst. North of 74 bypass just a few rain drops. Luckily no damage to the house or vehicles and the power stayed on but not everyone was so lucky in the community. Worst storm I've seen around here in a long time.

Pretty good thunderstorm overnight with some loud thunder a few hours ago. Picked up a quick inch of rain during the downpour. Surprised it held together this far east with as much strength as it still had. They usually don't after crossing the mountains and coming this far east.

Awesome story. That was a big time arctic front right there. Wish I would of been around to experience it. That's the stuff that gets me through these hot and humid summers. Love those old winter storys. Hoping to add some new ones this winter hopefully.

It's been great not having to feel the real summer heat and humidity until almost the first week of July this year. You don't get to say that hardly ever around these parts in the southeast. I can say 2003-2013-2023. 3 out of the last 21 years counting this summer. I'm enjoying it.

Picked up around 5.25 so far since Monday morning.

I'm trying to catch up to you. Approaching the 4 inch mark. Wish we were all measuring snow instead of rain.

Nickel and diming my way to the 3 inch mark.

Just over the inch mark in sw Rutherford so far.

And so it begins. Under first huge downpour. Monsoon like. Let's see how the rain gauges stack up this week.

That's what I was thinking. Things are probably getting ready to get crazy around here with all this rain coming. Everyone stay safe.

Picked up just under a hair under 4 inches.

Currently 50 with heavy rain at the moment. Just approaching the 2 inch mark. Might pick up another couple of inches this afternoon if these heavier bands keep reforming over the same areas. Will see.

Glad it took till the first week of June for the real heat to arrive. Always a win in my book if you can hold off the heat around these parts till June.

So far this pattern has reminded me of the spring and summer of 2013. A lot of cloudy gray rainy wedged in days that summer that kept it cooler that year. We are well overdue for a below normal summer in the temperature department.

Lost power for the last 4 hours due to the high winds. Just came back on. Thank goodness.

Looks like some flakes maybe flying in the high elevations next week.

Great read. Love old weather history especially when it pertains to cold and snow. Thank you.

They got around 1.5 inches of snow and the temperature dropped down to 32 degrees 113 years ago tomorrow. I sure wish it was happening again tomorrow but pretty unbelievable it happened in Atlanta at all so close to May.

Yeah good riddance on this past no winter. Filed away right beside 2011-12. Burn baby burn. Hoping for it to never return.

Yeah it's been a disaster. Only my second snowless winter in 42 years. Pitiful.
