FLweather Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I'm vicariously living through the Mid-Atlantic posters right now as they experience their second winter storm in just a few days tonight/tomorrow. The joys of living in NC. But considering the date and last couple to few years.... your area and my area is doing decent but still not what it could be... Though I remember one time Danville , VA was blanketed in a foot of snow while here was a pouring cold rain(20-25 miles). But I do believe we could see some token flakes from atleast AVL,GSO,Roxboro,South Hill tomorrow before it dries out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty unusual for us to see any significant winter weather this early in the season. Oftentimes, it's still in the 50s/60s this time of year and I'm really not even thinking of wintry weather, such as last year when I scarcely glanced at a model until mid-January. December storms are pretty rare and 2002, 2009, and 2010 are the only Decembers that I can remember producing here in recent memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really even though minor we doing a tad bit better than those years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjames1992 Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 12z GFS ensemble member p003 gives NC/TN a White Christmas. LOCK IT IN. There's another member or two that look like they might provide a little wintry precipitation in the vicinity of Christmas, as well. Just for fun.

jburns Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Story on drudge about coldest temperature ever recorded in east Antarctica -135. Sorry can't post link A new look at NASA satellite data revealed that Earth set a new record for coldest temperature recorded. It happened in August 2010 when it hit -135.8 degrees. Then on July 31 of this year, it came close again: -135.3 degrees. Since it was measured by satellite it doesn't count as a record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stovepipe Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Sorry I gave you too much credit. I thought I posted info that explained the points that have you confused. Are you disputing the fact that it is rather cold right now in Antarctica for basically being summer? If not, what is your point? And why are you trolling regional obs threads?
