We never EVER get temps below normal in the summer unless it’s cloudy or rainy. Good luck getting a summer day where the sun is shining and it’s below normal.
Technically, you are correct; one could drive or even fly somewhere else. But (with all respect), it's a crazy premise to expect someone not to want snow at their own house so they don't have to drive or fly somewhere else. Most of us don't live south of Orlando; we live in areas that have seasonal snowfall averages. Some people don't like it of course, but those that like the snow just want to continue to see it without having to go somewhere else. Through 2022, I averaged about 5 inches of snow per year since I lived at my current address; I don't expect to all the sudden measure it in feet but I shouldn't have to drive or fly to see it. And driving or flying to see it is nowhere near the same experience as getting it at home. Saying that someone could fly to Boston (GSP doesn't have a direct to Boston BTW), rent a car, and drive to New Hampshire just to see snow is a pretty ridiculous way to convince them they don't need it in their own backyard; especially when it's not unrealistic for them to see it. Even if I did, to take a family of 4 to Boston, rent a car, and get a hotel would be a lot more than "pennies on the dollar."
Welp, here we are. The next weekend and things still looks just as bad. And this place is off the rails. Another 10 more days and if its the same then we've lost the 1st half of Jan and the clock will be ticking. Just unbelievable
Hop on and enjoy the not so fun ride
Lots of folks have jobs, family obligations, and financial situations that do not allow them to just drop everything and chase snow. Its amazing this even needs to be said. Besides all that...nothjng compares to getting a winter storm at home...nothing.
Doesn't agree with its ensembles which show the same dog water pattern through its entire run.
Do I at least get an RC Cola with that?
This. Experiencing snow IMBY is much better than experiencing it elsewhere. I’d probably rather get 2” here than chase to see a foot. Second, I’d probably get divorced if I started chasing snow like that.
I'm looking at the ATL airport, not surrounding areas. I think it's likely that there are at least 6 days at or above 70, but 9 is not out of question. Something interesting to watch. For sure.
Yeah but if you're too far south, you'll have at least 2 straight months of Dewpoints near 70 or higher. Basically from Mid June to Mid August.
Yeah I’m probably lying to myself. It would be fun to track a bunch of different storms every year. Love all the pictures you post from up there too! I’m full on cold weather person but wonder how much snow would be to much. I definitely don’t get enough snow here for my liking, but Cincinnati or Indianapolis type climate would be perfect for me.
Yeah we still live plenty far south to get some stinker winters. I believe Tulsa gets bigger snows than White House when they do get them but not as often. Whereas here we get snow more often but it’s a lot of 1-2 inch type events a few times a year. I almost never go a winter without at least 1inch of snow. 2017 was the last time I didn’t get an inch or more. That was a winter I have nightmares about. Going 25 days without a freeze in January and literally no accumulating snow. I got 3 flurry events and to make it worse a quick hitting system in early March dropped a couple of inches of snow in places 20 minutes from me while I got shut out.
I wish my winter torches looked like that
Tennessee always gets left out of these convos somehow
