Outiside the mountains is seeing winter weather pretty much over in NC?
I wonder what the parameters of what is winter and what is not is? Looks like a pretty loose definition.
Not any of us, but DAMN
Anyone chasing to the northeast?

Just my thoughts; and I think this is pretty much climo. Places with elevation will still have chances for awhile yet. Then you have the North of I-40 crowd that may get another look or two, along with NE "late bloom" area of NC. Outside of that, given that we are already at late Feb with nothing of note showing up over the next two weeks, it's a 95%+ bet that it's over for the rest of us; when it comes to accumulating wintry weather. Of course there will be some more freezes and some people could see a passing snow/sleet shower or flurries but that would not be a significant system. If the pattern doesn't look really good by this time in Feb, the rest of us can pretty much call it a day. For my area; the upstate, we haven't seen accumulating snow in March since .5in in 2017, and before then .9in in 2010. And further, I only remember 2 accumulating snowfalls past the first week of March in my entire lifetime; 1983 and 1993. Yes I've seen snow showers in April several times but GSP has only recorded a total of .4 of snowfall in it's entire record keeping history for April. CLT has only had 6.6 in of April snow in it's history; 3.5 of which was in 1879. So, unless something crazy like 83 or 93 happens then most of us are done for wintry weather. At this point I am just hoping for a long cool spring before the furnace cranks.
We have a shot the first few days of March, albeit not a strong one. After that, who knows but winter will be getting long in the tooth as we get to the middle of the month, obviously.

I wish I could transport myself to say...I guess Long Island for a few hours hypothetically.
But no. If one of the YouTubers streams (alright fine, Ryan Hall), I might pick it up and halfway pay attention to it.
I really ought to chase one of the mountain storms (Donner Pass would probably be an unrealistic dream, I'm thinking in the southern Apps), but since I know nobody IRL that is a weather nerd...
Any takers here? LMAO (though idk how I'd be able to handle driving myself if I got caught in a situation where it's an emergency and I HAVE to drive out)

Yard question. I put out my pre-emergence yesterday as the forecast called for .5-.75 inches of rain and only got .3. Should that be enough rain? They are calling for more around Thursday.
Is BAM chasing? So he can find his winter??
I've always wanted to experience true blizzard conditions just once, with poor visibility, rates of more than 2" an hour, and 30+ mph winds. The thought of a foot of snow on the ground has always felt surreal.
Even getting heavy snow has been rare here. RDU airport hasn't reported "heavy snow" since 2018.

This is probably gonna be the closest experience to that for me for a long long time. Very classic example here of warm air advection (can see shallower returns moving NW) meeting a backbent CF/CAA resulting in a “death band). When this band begun we had around 3.5”. Lasted about 6-7H . Ended with the 12”. Gusts in the 30s pretty consistently. Never gonna forget this storm, and we are probably gonna pay for this one with another snow drought.
That's close enough. Id just keep an eye out around memorial day and if you start seeing weeds break through go ahead and apply again

Yeah I'd say the closest thing I've experienced was in Kansas City last year. It's definitely a surreal experience
I think that's why I was kind of annoyed with the storm last month here. I don't think I was ever expecting a blizzard tbh but considering the hype I did expect more of a show and it just seemed to fall a bit flat

This has been one of the worst winter ever here since i moved here (in my backyard) on to next year winter
It may be easier for your area to get winter weather in El Nino Winters than further east.
Brent
Member
It happens people always said second year Nina don't get your hopes up. I'm all for El nino at this point
Its gonna be the warmest winter on record here probably despite the one storm

DHS reverses course on suspending TSA PreCheck after outcry — The Washington Post
The reversal came after discussions with the White House and TSA, an official said. DHS will still suspend Global Entry program as the partial shutdown continues.

Yay
Oh I am in that mess, or will be tomorrow! I live in Cutler, ME right on the coast. Blizzard warning is out, calling for 9-15+ inches of snow and winds gusting 50mph! Fun times of February!!!
Sooo, my work involves supply chain/planning ops at 2 sites. One down here and the other outside Boston. Usually the Mass site puts in a plan for big storms like this. Warnings of reduced labor capacity, anticipated shipment delays, etc. They didn’t do that for this one at all. Not a single meeting or contingency plan in place. I *think* as of 5pm Friday they were expecting only a few inches (no big deal up there). Whoops!
I reckon I could have looked at the model trends myself at that point and warned them? But I was too focused on a slight chance of seeing some flakes here, and I have a feeling they wouldn’t have believed me anyway. Oh the southerner is warning us of a blizzard, whatever. lol

When is the last time Atlanta had a Major Ice Storm in March (Freezing Rain not Sleet) ?
3/25/1971
Edit: This is ironic because it just happens to be the latest in the season major winter storm on record in the ATL area. I wouldn’t read too much into this.
BradGPT ai graphic thinks Islip and Remensburg are upstate lol

As Mike Joy and DW used to say:
“Have you ever?”
“No I’ve never!”
Biggest snow of my life. About 19” at this point and still falling. Radar has been unreal for the past 16-17 hours or so. Moved up at just the right time I guess.

There's a line pointing to its location on long island
LMAO I looked at it at least 10 times. Goes to show you how bad AI is at making maps that are easy to read

20" of snow and NYC schools are open tomorrow. If that much snow fell in the south, schools would be closed for 2 weeks.

Areas in and around Charlotte got over a foot of snow nearly a month ago. How long were schools closed there? It's really just about clearing the roads....snow is harmless outside of driving(especially after the weather has cleared).
I’ll give you one guess why

NY folks are complaining anyway and I saw through poking around that they haven't gotten to Staten Island/etc in cleaning up the roads, which matters as many of their teachers likely have to travel.
