Nice write-up @George BM, but I'll 100% pass on ever wanting that to happen. That WOULD be catastrophic, to sat the least.

My numbers for December 2025 Averaged high was 43.9 degrees vs a normal of 45.5 degrees, a -1.6 degrees below average. The warmest temp recorded was 61.5 degrees on the 28th. Averaged low was 25.1 degrees vs a normal of 25.7 degrees, a -0.6 degrees below average. Coldest temp recorded was 5.8 degrees on the 15th. Overall temp was 34.5 degrees vs a normal of 35.6 degrees, a -1.1 degrees below normal. Total precip for the month was 3.21 inches vs a normal of 3.22 inches, only off -0.01 inches below average. The wettest day was the 19th with 0.77 inches falling. There were 16 days with measurable, 5 days with a 'T', and 10 dry days. Total snowfall for the month was 11.1 inches vs a normal of 4.2 inches, a +6.9 inches above average. Highest snowfall was 5.1 inches on the 9th. There were 5 days with measurable, 8 days with a 'T' and 18 snowless days. There were 10 days with measurable SOG, 4 with a 'T' and 17 with no snow. Highest measured SOG at 7 am was the 9th with 4.5 inches. Highest wind recorded was 54 mph on the 20th. There were 16 days with winds above 25 mph, and 3 days above 50 mph. Two new records for the month, a new record low on the 15th and a new daily snowfall on the 9th. Overall a slightly colder month, chilly for majority with a 5 day period around Christmas to bring the average up closer to normal. Almost a perfect month moisture-wise, but almost 3 times normal snowfall. Extremely windy month. Yearly numbers- highest temp 91.5 degrees on 6/24, lowest temp 0.2 degrees on 1/23. 41.30 inches of precip for the year, 41.4 inches of snowfall for the calendar year.

Sorta, 2.27", with 0.63" of that falling on the last day of the month. 4.5" of snow, but boy was it cold! Especially on 1/21, -19 that morning, a -4.2 for the month.

Wishing all a Happy New Year!

The radar hole of Hades. Blacksburg's doesn't quite reach there, Charleston's does but only after zooming over the Yew mountains, and Sterling's has too many ridges to cross too. I THINK Pittsburgh's gets there too, again not well though. -

Currently 34.8/21.4 at 7 pm after a 35.5 high. Not expecting much here, but getting the ground white is the goal, anything measurable is a win. -
Spent the day cashing in on 'rewards' for EOY and EOM. Bought 22 gallons of gas for truck at 1.22 then 14 gallons for Subbie at 1.57 in Roanoke. While in Roanoke hit Panda Express and got the 40 dollar family meal with double rangoons and double spring rolls for 3 bucks OOP,(which we are currently eating) then stopped and picked up 16 2 liters of diet Dew for 1.49. Wife had rewards at Micheal's and Home Goods expiring today so she picked up some things she needed for her sewing crocheting hobby. Think she spent 12 bucks on 40 dollars of 'stuff'. Overall a good day, lol. ps-yeah, I'm sorta tight lol.

Could work.

Yep, although I'd prefer (as 90% would) snow, ANY moisture is welcome after the past few months, and I've been better off than many to the north and east.

I clouded over around 3 am and the flurries returned. It WAS 18.3 around 2 am, climbed once those clouds filled in. Up to 24.4/16.7 at 8 am here.

Currently 23.2/16.3 with a few flurries in the air. It flurried yesterday morning until 9-10 am, and started again overnight around 4-5 am, but never enough to accumulate. Still nice seeing it fall, and it has been chilly! Fell back into upper teens right after midnight, but slowly rose once the clouds (and flurries) returned, low 18.3 degrees. -

Best of luck with that. I had my 6 month today, squeezing it in before EOY.
