Ernest T Bass Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 My little cheap indoor-outdoor system which always seems to read high showed 7 degrees this morning. Most nearby stations were 6 degrees or less. Saw one at -1 degrees right close to the river. Coldest morning I'd say since 2014 unless I'm forgetting some other time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a ambient station back in 2020. Best investment ever for MBY. Upgraded to in 2024 to a newer model. The price point for Ambient is not steep. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BooneWX Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Anybody get the feeling we’re going to get a pasting before winter is over? We seem to be headed for a thaw but if we can get some cold air back on this side of the globe at the end of Feb, I think we might. Been a long time since we’ve had a 5:1.

Cold air isn't going to be a problem. We'll get a little thaw then back to Cold. This spring isn't going to be pretty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calculus1 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 I'm not sure what to make of this Wednesday evening - Thursday morning event. The GFS is printing out crazy totals for the Hickory area now. Cold chasing moisture doesn't ever seem to work out here, so I'm not really expecting anything, but it's hard to ignore what the models are showing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone is getting a quick thumping tomorrow night, no doubt about it. Every model seems in agreement, while every model also disagrees on placement of said thumping. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strongwxnc Posted February 4 Author Share Posted February 4 Our school system ran a regular day today. I’ve spent about five hours Monday and Tuesday driving all the country roads in my district. Monday was brutal but yesterday most of them have been scraped. Didn’t have many issues this morning. But could’ve been worse.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
