I hate it when the teacher is like "DiD yOu GuYs sEe ThErE's A wiNtEr WeAtHeR aDviSoRy" and then everyone's like omg it gonna snow and I just sit quietly in the corner shaking my head because I don't wanna sound like a know it all
I just say screw it and tell everybody about the weather before the teacher can get a word in. It’s east when everybody is too shy to talk on Zoom.
 
If the triad gets around 32 and 31 degrees, this will likely be a huge underperformed.
You’d be surprised at how much 32/31 can be effective with ZR, some of those areas farther north with the recent ice storm had temps around 31 most of the duration and got that, maybe less effective with roads but bad with trees/bridges and elevated surfaces
 
I agree the 90's sucked for the most part in this area (outside of a couple of "okay" storms in the early 90's), and maybe most of the Carolinas for the most part. The Midlands area of SC isn't a snow haven, no doubt. But I definitely recall snowstorms in the 80's, and it snowed every year of the 80's outside of two winters ('80-'81 and '85-'86). Whether we had a significant storm, snowed but didn't stick, or flurries.

I will admit it seems we get our storms in spurts. It's occurred quite a few times to my recollection.
I think the 80s were legitimately a good decade for winter, and I think it skews our perception of what winters used to be like. Thing is, I’m pretty sure winters of the 80s are much snowier than even the winters of the 60s and 70s.
 
You lose your weenie card if you don't want ice. Plain and simple. Everyone pretending they don't want it is a liar.
There’s some truth to this. In some ways I want it and in some ways I don’t. If I’m sitting in the cold for days with no power after I’ll definitely regret it, though. ?
