GaWx I appreciate your efforts and research but the writing is on the wall. Spring peepers are already singing in WNC and February has just started. They know winter is done. Sure it will get cold again for brief stretches but any prolonged winter pattern with multiple snow threats is a pipe dream. The closer we get to the pattern change the models will continue to moderate and push it back until its a cold front with a couple below average days before it warms up and rains again.
It's been 750 or more days since most of us has been able to enjoy accumulating snow. The next 10 days is going to be spring like. Most people are in the prove it stage with the possible "good" pattern. We were told it was game on from January 15th on. Here we are on Feb 1 with no snow for most of the region and none in sight for at least 2 weeks.
It's also rained over 10 inches for most of the area that past month.
Indeed it is but this is Wal Mart Karen level bitch. Most cities are going to break their all time snow droughts if we don't pull out a late February or March miracle.
He sees one good model run and says the big one is coming. The next run its gone. I think he is as snow hungry as the rest of us and its driving him nuts.
