Mid-February is generally too late for my area. If this is correct, winter is a wrap for me, unfortunately. This week was our "window" and we missed it.
We have a a few mid feb even late Feb snows in Atlanta. All we can do is hope.

pretty pessimistic!
Absolutely nothing wrong with the 500mb look on the EPS/GEFS/and the GEPS… that’s all I care about this far out. The ridge out west is in a good location and it’s helping the angle of the cold moving into the east and settling up better confluence in the NE… something we haven’t had this week.
Things were different years ago. It is not as easy to score in Feb and March as it used to be.
Atlanta Avg 3-4 events post Feb 1st per every 10 years on avg. hasn't really changed that much since the early 1900s per data.
Probably for the first half of Feb. I think it’s been 14 years since Atlanta had anything of note past Valentines Day.
Post Feb 1st. No real change over the last 50 years.
The last run bumped into NC quite a bit, interesting!!
Is this the same look as what we just saw. If so no thanks.
casually observing this but not very excited, precip appears diffuse and may have 2m temp issues
Correct me if I’m wrong but hadn’t it been since 1993 before Atlanta had the 3/1/2009 storm that they had gotten anything after Valentine’s Day
No it’s not. The western ridge is taller and oriented a bit further east. This allows the PV to be oriented better to provide the cold push at a better angle into the southeast and it sets up good confluence over the NE. Also you can see an active STJ still in the picture.
If we get it, it still isn't going to be good enough for some folks
This might be the only time I beat you on an afternoon high. We topped out at 26.6 and are now down to 25.5.
I just added it to the list.
I would’ve swore I saw some flakes around 3ish here. Even my iPhone alerted me.
Looks like I wasn’t crazy. Sleet reported in the same bands that have since moved east
Yeah my daughter is a senior at NC State and she texted me that there was a little bit of snow falling on her while she was walking back to her apartment from class
