Lastly, may I conclude this very strange day by offering a sober thought ...

Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment. - Benjamin Franklin

Care to weigh in on the 1300m vs WebberWeather heavyweight match? ;)
I just want Brick on the 2 fight night!
Brick the beefcake VS Tarheel the terrible! Book it
 
I can't find it right now, but the climate office analyzed snow day frequency and I think 1/30 may be the peak snow day frequency at RDU. Not 100% on that.
I can give you some of the actual numbers when I finish off the archive (which is a long ways off from now) but I smoothed the median day for RDU and it was about January 25 ish but I wouldnt be shocked if the day with the most storms is a little later. We get a lot more bang for our buck later in the year from what I've seen even going back a century or more ago, I just don't know exactly how much but I'll find out soon enough.
 
With all the recent ups and downs and so forth, here's a tune that hopefully resonates in part to someone, somewhere tonight ...

We're in a bit of a weather lull. I'm sure the mods and admins are just grateful that the conversation has continued and site traffic is still moving right along

In case you're curious, I found 1/26-7, 2/10, and 3/2 to be dates of having most frequently been part of 6"+ events at rdu...each date was part of 3 different 6"+'s.

Just dropping this right here, as I've talked about it a lot before. If its an issue that it's a forum post, someone can delete this post, I don't mind:

Oh man, the memories. I gambled on starting a thread 9 days out and won, something I'd never do today. I think I was actually watching this period a few days earlier than 9 days out.

And you can tell that I was still new to doing this in there.

Very nice!
 
Thought this pic from November 1st, 2014 from Lexington County, SC might cheer up some from the snowhole this season.

The GFS op is the worst model on the planet, until it shows a 288 hour ice storm for AL! LOL, SMDH
 
Wonder how long people deny the La Nina type weather is taking over before the true melt down happens.
 
Weather is weather. It’s going to do what it wants to do. Not reason for ANYONE to get worked up over to the point of having a meltdown.

Especially since most of us already had a great winter. Do I want more snow this winter? Sure I do but I won’t be near as bummed as I would if we still hadn’t got a good snow yet.

Congrats Wolfpack!

I'm pretty confident we'll get more snow this winter. We may not get the big one, but in all likely hood we'll at least get an ankle biter or two.
