We realistically, just missed by about 500 miles to our west here in January. That could have been our storm that broke the snow drought here. It was close. It's not unusual at all to go below normal in temps and not snow. We can go above normal in temps AND score a significant snow, too. Snow in the deep south is just rare no matter what conditions persist.
I understand.
My childhood & even 20's - 40's self remembers differently but apparently I was born during or shortly after a mini ice age for the Western Carolinas & NE Ga region.
One thing is certain it has been very bad the past 5-9 years this area.
Temps in Jan. With the blowtorch for first half of Feb it’s another AN winter.
Seeing that river of cold January just faceplant in TN before it gets to the carolinas, shame. Hopefully we can get one week in February that will come east and give us a storm. I don't need March, just one solid cold and stormy week in February, dang it. Lol.
15 inches of liquid for January at 3000feet elevation on the NC/SC border, with below normal temp mean for the month. And they maybe saw a few northwest flow flurries break containment?
What are the odds of that?

The columns dont line up right. Far right is snow depth, 2nd to right is daily snow, and third to right is daily precip
I would say that pretty much all and if not more of that 3.2 above average is from the 24-28th. Without that, RDU probably ends up slightly below average for the month.

Well I got 1/3 right. I nailed the temp departure for KATL. I was predicting -0.5 BN I was 1 inch too low on the precip. I would have been right on the mark if I stuck with my initial prediction of 6.4 inches.??
