I’m is NC foothills near VA border.
I have a question about the MJO.
JFM has 1,2,3&8 as cold phases.
FMA has the same cold phases.
MAM has 1,2,3,4&7 as cold.
so which one do we go by in March?
Thansk.
I’m 62 and I remember the snows in 70’s and 80’s on going winter storms.
I remember we had 3 TV channels to watch back then.Channel 2 12 and 8
Channel 8 had a meteorologist named Frank Deal.
He was the best at forecasting the snowstorms.
I always liked his forecasts best because he would usually predict more than channel 2 and 12.
Most of the time he was spot on too
I don’t know the ages of members on this site but I would venture to say many were not around in 1993.I remember it as we didn’t receive any snow that winter before March.We had warm temperatures in February too.
My wife and I went to Maryland valentines weekend that year.
40’s and rain at home but major snowstorm on 81 in Va.
It is absolutely crazy how in a week we went from a cold pattern and potential snow to warm up and rain.
Wouldn’t it be something if in a week went back to what it was showing 7 days ago?
The models are obviously horrible any more.
just look at the storm the they just went north. I mean right up to storm start time models were still changing and they still were to low for some area.
I agree.
one thing curious about and I’ve not heard anyone talk about is the SOI index.
it been - for 2 weeks and way - at times . Yesterday it was -46.54 today -39.53.
Wondering if A- index have a bearing on the winter weather in the East?
So we just throw in the towel in the 3rd quarter.
I suppose nobody remembers March 93.
This was before my time but any remember hearing about March 1960 snowing every WednesdayIt stayed cold and the snow didn’t melt. That winter was mild and the first snow didn’t fall until February.
Just saying just like the Super Bowl Patriots vs Atlanta. It wasn’t over at 1/2 time.
Well earlier this weeks temps were supposed to be in the low 50’s today for highs. . This forecast is showing 48.
Woke up to 43 this morning. Since rain has come in temperatures have actually dropped to 42 as of 12:30 pm.Dont know if thst will have an effect if rain were to chance over later.
I’m diehard Carolina fan. Always have been always will be. I can pull for most ACC teams except Duke. No way.
But hats off to Clemson Tigers and all tiger fans on here . What a team.
Freshman QB and WR. Are you kidding me.
Thanks for posting that. Didn’t catch it when first looked at map.
I’m 57 and I don’t ever remember seeing a storm of this size this early in the season. WOW
