Misc Winter 22-23 Whamby and Banter Thread Part 2

Idk what’s more irresponsible than posting 384 hr gfs operational stratosphere maps. It’s worse than snow maps if I’m being honest because as bad as the gfs is in the troposphere that far out, it’s that much worse at 10mb.

If you do that and you’re a meteorologist, you deserve to get called out for it
I've been saying this for years! lol. you're 100% right. He might as well post 384hr clown maps. No different than posting the occasional 10mb fantasy run.

As a mere mortal and a man of the people, I will continue to post these images.
 
Jimmy still lurking. Just haven’t had anything positive to add these last 4 weeks. Never say die ☃️
 
Appreciate y’all. Yeah I was told I’ll probably have to shave it eventually for the job but some lucky people get by with it so you never know! Hell of an experience though hope I can go in and get some more practice soon
That's awesome man. I think you should get the job and then grow it back.
 
I guess I’m all in? Meanwhile, plants are starting to bloom and my nose is running from the pollen. ?

Haha, all I know is the pollen is getting annoying the last couple days. There was one tree I saw earlier I’ve lunch that looked like it was blooming a little, but maybe I was seeing things lol.
 
The fact that this winter will probably be a shutout is honestly legit depressing. Not to go into personal stuff but when I'm feeling down I often use the idea of tracking winter storms to cheer myself up.
 
My last hope is that little bit of noise around 10 - 11 days out if nothing then I’m in spring mode (yes I know winter is not over, we got snow March 11th last year) anything after that will be a surprise cause I don’t really keep an eye on the models like I do normally. That’s assuming the models keep showing the same rest of winter.
 
If there is a site or a way to see season-end snow totals for mountain terrain in NC I’d love to know.

Areas like Linville, Blowing Rock, Newland average about 35 inches of snow per season and I don’t think they’ve come close to that lately.
 
Never understood why some people are obsessed with weather in the Mid-Atlantic. I hope those poor snow weenies in DC get plastered.
 
I thought that one missed them for the most part. I know it nailed the GSP metro though.
Nah 15 miles north of Anderson I got 2.75 inches. Anderson proper got a solid 5 inches and was right in the maxima accumulation band for the upstate.
