  1. Yes, if you're north of the Mason-Dixon! Actually it is something to look at. Given that the Canadian cold north of the 1030 is just marginally cold, I would like to see a little stronger high; maybe 1035, 1038, something along those lines, although the location helps as well. The biggest problem I see with set up is the low placement, waaay to far north for us. Would need to track along the gulf coast; say NO to JAX. But you don't want the low to crank up much either; brings in too much warm air.
  2. Only expecting cold rain here in Easley, but currently 39/37 with heavy rain. Lovely evening!
  3. GSP 2.87 today through 11pm Oconee airport 3.1
  4. MISERABLE weather day, made it up to 38/39 and pouring all night and day with breezy conditions. Missouri and Illinois the states to be tonight.
  5. Yeah, that would be close. Think the airport had 14.4 from that storm, I had about 16 IMBY. Can't remember if GSP got 10+ from 92-93 or not, I think 3/93 storm was 9.8, but can't remember if there was another small something that put it over 10. If not, 88 would be the last double digit season, which shows how terrible we've been in recent decades.
  6. Wow, go big or go home baby! Some of those look credible, but NOOOO way Simpsonville (GSP) gets 17! That hasn't happened since 82-83? Haven't even seen double digits in 25-30 years. Sure it will happen again eventually, and man are we due, but no way. I'd go with 5 for GSP.
  7. A true but VERY sobering reality that most of us can't get 6 hours of mod to heavy snow during an entire winter season. Wow, I'm feeling really depressed now, thanks Burns.
  8. I'll pass, had more than enough rain for awhile. Looks like first half of November to be a little above normal. Not only no freeze, but not even seeing any 30s. Hope the winter does not remember that!
  9. Looks like winds have dropped off, already down to 45. Bet my forecast of 36 busts. First freeze tonight?
  10. All this cold and snow horn blowing going on is going to totally jinx the whole thing! Thought you guys knew better than that, Old Man Winter hates to be anticipated; when he's expected, forget it. If you guys will be quiet, and he does show up, I'll be interested to see if CAE gets its first measurable snow since 2.1 inches on Feb 12th 2014; going on five years. I know we talked about it last year but the streak continues. GSP s streak of less than double digit inches continues as well. Just looking back since 1960, it received at least 10 inches in 14 out of 34 winters (about once every 2.5 winters) through 1993, but has not done so a single winter since. We're due!
  11. J Burns; the only bear who hibernates UNTIL winter! You have to admit though that's a pretty accurate sounding forecast.
  12. Yep, analogues seem pretty worthless for the sake of predicting. 2010-2011 was awesome for about 3 weeks. The Christmas storm, the early Jan Miller A. Then there was supposed to be an even bigger snow around Jan 18th or so, a Tuesday. The models were all on board the weekend before with a big daddy, then it ended up an apps runner. After that it was spring and it never looked back. Great start to winter, but very disappointing after that.
  13. I remember 95 summer having much more intense heat. There was a major heat wave in the Midwest that year, with Chicago having a bad one. I think there were higher heights with waves that year than this and it was a much more active tropical season, multiple major canes. Tropical storm Jerry set records in the upstate for rainfall, over 12 inches in 24 hours in late August at GSP. I remember having an early dismissal from school in early Nov from sleet, kinda early for that kind of thing in the upstate. Overall, 95-96 was my probably the best wall to wall cold in the upstate in my lifetime, and my favorite winter.
  14. Already down to 57 tonight at 10:30, first sub 60 since August. Feels awesome!
  15. Ok, guess it's the fall wennie in me but I find that I am actually a little giddy about tomorrow night. I seriously have been thinking about the cool down all day with anticipation, kinda like when you have something really cool planned that you can't wait till it gets here. Ok, part if it is that my a/c went out a couple weeks ago and with the heat and humidity, the windows have provided little relief at night. But beyond that, it will be awesome just to have some comfortable, NORMAL weather! Most on the board have not seen temps below 60 since the late August front, even places like Asheville. Low 50s is going to feel so awesome!
  16. Hey there buckeye, hope you're well! Yeah, pretty crazy just how hot it can get there. Looks like they just missed 90 today with a refreshing 89. I think you're correct about no 100s last year, and I think only 2 or 3 this year. I haven't hit 100 IMBY since 2012, and GSP has hit 100 (exactly) only twice since then.
  17. That's awful! I've heard of that happening to golfers. Actually, once when I was on the course I had a canned Sprite. Came back and took a sip, as soon as I took it away from my mouth a yellow jacket flew out. I was thanking my lucky stars on that one.
  18. Here are a couple readings from 11:00PM this October 6th (temp/dp), and yes, some heat indices! GSP - 73/70 CLT - 77/74 HI 78 CAE - 78/75. HI 80 AVL - 70/68 Boone - 68/68 RDU - 71/71 ATL - 79/65. HI 81 FLO - 77/74 HI 78 Knoxville - 76/71 HI 77 Is this for real? I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS!
  19. 107 so far. A couple years ago they had more than that. I was thinking that 95 from yesterday sounded pretty awful until I saw their daily record was 101! Edit: In 2016 CAE recorded 109 days of 90+ including 21 days of 100+! Days of 90+ 2018 - 107 and counting 2017 - 100 2016 - 109 2015 - 98 2014 - 100 For comparison, here ate GSP' s totals: 2018 - 47 (looks like GSP is done now) 2017 - 35 2016 - 78 2015 - 60 2014 - 43 Don't know what CAE in 2013 but that year GSP only had 14.
  20. Today: CAE 95/69 Macon 95/67 ATL 92/70 CLT 91/67 GSP 91/67 RDU 90/ 68 AVL 86/62 Not bad for a cool crisp October day.
  21. Some Highs and Lows from today: CAE 93/70 Macon 92/66 ATL 91/69 CLT 91/68 GSP 90/66 RDU 89/66 AVL 85/64 Lowest temp over the next seven days forecast for me by GSP NWS is 66!
