I think Shane and Charlie are taking the money raised to tinker with it, if enough, they are about to make dreams come true, if not, then dreams will be crushed. Lol

In wish I really knew programming I would create a huge cold biased model and put it behind a pay wall so all thy suckers would pay up

So basically 5 years without much of anything in Atlanta. Pretty sad.

Hence the birth of "NoSnowATL". The mid 90's through the early 2000's was the worst. 2009 through 2018 was ok, though. I'm seriously considering retiring to a cabin in the TN mountains, though, if I live long enough to retire.

I swear you'd have better luck seeing snow in a city with warmer winters like Dallas. Atlanta is further north, higher in elevation, and colder in winter yet somehow Dallas seems to get more snow. Go figure.

That's why even seeing flurries is crazy exciting in Atlanta! We are in a sub-tropical climate most of the year.
 
I'm wishing they never fixed the issues with the Euro. I know it's probably right about the SE ridge on roids but man, I hate to be reminded of it. Severe outbreak next week for all of the south if it holds.
 
State had another potential student suicide. Obviously the worst dream of those of us who work front lines with students.

I know there’s some state students here and I hope if you ever feel like that, you’ll go see student services.

My top ten winter storms of my life time. January of 1982 would be #2 on my list but it happened 7 months before I was born so I can't claim that one even though we got 16 inches out of it where I live but I've been told all about how it was one of the biggest snowstorm's to hit this area. So many good storms in the past that I hate to leave off the list. So hard to narrow it down to just these 10.

I was born in 1990 and obviously don’t remember much about the blizzard of 93. What was the setup during that storm?

It was the storm of the century so don't waste your time studying it. It won't happen again in our lifetime so when JB brings it up ignore him! Just kidding it was a triple phase just at the right time for MOST of the SE. I'm sure the RDU crowd never wants to see that again

I love the EURO because it is a warm model and is not progressive biased like the dumb GFS. I'd rather have 0 fantasy snow all winter long than 200 inches of it and not a flake to show for it by the end of the winter.

It needed to have tracked just 50 or so miles farther SE to get more of us in it. CAD would have been a bigger factor too if it had occurred in January or February instead of March. We only got about 2 inches out of it here.

If we can get winter precip I do like it. If it is not going to snow, 1 major cold snap is enough, and we got that before Christmas.

I don't know how many times or different ways ways to break this; if it is not cold it will NEVER snow. Let me know how many 70 degree snows you've had and I'll reconsider my stance.
