I would think your location is the new Florida north with around 9 months of summer and 3 months of spring. The new norm is one meaningful snowstorm every 10 years or so. Nov-March a couple days of highs in the 40's and lows in the 20's. Great place to avoid any winter weather in the southeast and yes you will be having summer weather in your neck of the woods in no time.

I know it's not going to last long but these sleet pellets are huge. What could have been if only 50 miles to the north.
-
Cool man. A little winter still in the tonight.
-
Still sleeting in sw Rutherford county. On and off for the past 3 hours now.
-
Sorry for the Feb obs in March. Still thought it was Feb for some reason. Sorry about that.
-
36.0 with light sleet with a few flurries mixed in just sw of forest city
-
Awesome. Yeah I think this moisture is going to make it a little further north than forecasted. Keep us updated.
-
Your exactly right. So long to have to wait for next winter with all the heat and humidity right around the corner. Seems like we are singing the same tune at this time every year around here now.
-
Awesone man. That's great to hear. More than the winter storm warning the other day. What I wouldn't give to have the rest of the storm be snow.
-
Still sleeting here for the past 30 minutes or so. Down to 35.0. Had some pretty moderate bursts so far. Atmosphere is definitely different aloft currently than the last storm. Don't know how the rest of the storm shakes out but I would bet Definitely the mountains foothills piedmont triad should get a little front end thump as well like I just seen. Nice to hear and see sleet. It's been so long.

Just walked outside. 36.0 With Light sleet and flurries mix right now in SW Rutherford county. Didn't even see anything frozen the other day in the winter storm warning. This is a nice little surprise. Be interesting to see what happens when the heavier precipitation arrives later tonight.
-
I know right. I do remember just one after the blizzard of 93. I remember way back in Jan or Feb of 96 Gary Stephenson on wlos way back then talking about McDowell county was under a blizzard warning at that time. Man am I getting old.
-
Yes we have all winter long and it continues.
-
Thanks @strongwxnc. Appeciate the the insight. Looks on the lines of what I was thinking.
-
What does anybody think for the southern foothills Rutherford county on any ice accumulation or just cold rain. What could be the ballpark figures min and max on ice and any possible snow or sleet for this area at the onset. Thanks for the insight.

That ice storm was the bench mark for me in Rutherford county. 5-6 inches of sleet. Never seen it sleet so hard in my life. Yes there was 2 inches accumulated ice on everything, no power for 10 days. No school for 2 1/2 weeks. Barely above freezing the next 10 days with lows in the single digits and teens at night. Everything was a skating rink outside. Secondary roads were a thick 1-2 inch sheet of ice for 2 weeks. Never forget that ice storm. That one was the big dog around here for Ice Storms
-
Looks like it's setting the stage. Hopefully some snow and sleet on the front end but somebody is going to get a major ice storm out of this one as it looks now.
-
Is it just me or are some of the models trending toward more of a widespread ice storm winter storm for southern va tried piedmont nc and now extreme upstate sc later next week. Looks like the cad is trending a lot colder with tons of moisture.
-
That's exactly right. It was pretty much supposed to be a blowtorch pretty much all winter. To put it in comparison to last winter. I'm in the firewood business. Last Winter from Sep 1st to May 15th we sold (62) truckloads total. This winter from Sep 1st thru today Feb 11th we have sold (144) and still counting. No comparison to last winter in terms of temps. Still have to wait thru march to grade like like @wncsnow said.
-
So depressing to see that artic air on our doorstep but not making it any further east. Hoping for a miracle in the little bit of time we have left this winter.

3.5 -4 Inches sw rutherford danieltown 31.0 still snowing lightly all roads covered pine tree branches starting to snap
-
I know. It's beautiful. @strongwxnc Glad we're finally getting to see some snow in our neck of the woods. Been way to long. Hopefully we get some more in the near future. Happy for everyone who is getting to see snow tonight.
-
Absolutely pouring snow here in sw rutherford county at 33.0 Just measured 3 inches. It has all accumulated in the past 2 hours. Turning into a nice well overdue snowstorm here. Trees starting to really sag. Probably going to be power issues if it keeps up at this rate.
-
Pouring snow. Big flakes.
-
Almost all snow now in sw rutherford county danieltown. Just starting to stick at 35.0
