Whelp, the long term looks bleak for anything fun in the SE. And of course I'm headed to Utah for work next week, skiing 3-4 days in Deer Valley the following weekend/week and they've had one of the worst/driest Jan/Febs on average. I'm really paying for the 29 inches in 36 hours we got at Alta in mid Dec. Hopefully we can get lucky enough to see a pattern shift and at least a few inches while out there.

That’s awesome (I lied about last post). I did a similar thing out on my back porch about 30 min ago. Some people think my love of snow is weird or nerdy (don’t care), while other friends and family have adopted it themselves. Snow will never not be magical to me, especially in the south. Hell in even Utah, where I go frequently for work and to ski, it’s still awesome. And I likely won’t see this much snow all next week out there. Will never take it for granted.

I’m not going to argue because we’re all happy to see the white stuff, but most stations are reporting light snow, occasionally moderate snow. Heavy snow or a white out is a very rare occasion. I’ve been in a few, particularly in the Rockies, and you can hardly tell which way is up. But enjoy! It’s certainly coming down nicely.

January 20-22 “bring the mojo” winter storm threat

Pretty odd to have a warning <50 miles from Charlotte and not even be under an advisory. They must seeing a pretty extreme gradient on the NW edge. -
2021-2022 Fall/Winter Mountains Thread

Mud?!? Don't you still have a foot or so on the ground? -
I was born and raised in Raleigh, still root for snow in the Triangle too, but I cannot imagine the level of whining if the Triangle folks here had to put up with what we do in Charlotte proper. We've basically had one good storm (that still had mixing issues) in the 11 years I've lived here.

For all the complaining from Triangle folks (where I was born and raised), it is increasingly impossible to get a decent snowstorm in CLT proper. Of course on the rare occasion the NW trend is our friend, it teases us with almost a foot of snow one model run, only to completely reverse course and virtually go to zero. It is enraging how in 2022 we don't have better/more consistent model technology.

I haven't looked too deep into the analogs, but this storm is giving me strong Feb 2014 vibes. Multi day event, cold air entrenched, etc.
