Days are getting longer, sun angle getting higher, its about time for snow chances to diminish. Spring creasy greens are already coming up in the unplowed corn fields.

Im sure those big dogs that happen once every 10 to 20 years skew the average a bit. Im sure Raleigh has more snow events on average in Jan if only because there are 3 more days in Jan !
We need another Late February 2004. I'm sure all the upstate SC peeps on here remember that one. Lol 24 inches of snow in Rock hill!

No they aren’t because last I checked it’s not even February until tomorrow.
The melt down. It's slowly starting to happen!
In more ways than one.

If anyone thinks the moon controls weather, here's hoping you have a stomach for this nonsense ...
Two January Blue Moons since 1915 ---> in 1961 and 1999.
The February's of those years ...
but with the seeming rash of cliff diving, maybe this gives someone seeming justification or an ill advised rational before jumping ...

Im still amazed how an epic torchfest like this in February 1927 was immediately followed by the biggest snowstorm on record east of the mountains in NC (as a whole) on the first day of March.
With those kind of temps preceding it and the fact it was March im sure that had to be a nightime event or at least started at night.
The surface charts and surface data available at the time actually show the precipitation beginning during the middle of the afternoon on the 1st as moderate-heavy snow and it began to accumulate quite rapidly in spite of the warm preceding temps and time of the year.

JBurns is an old cranky fart who runs out just about every good poster from that forum (there are quite a few left who I respect). His power hungry moderating style is that of an obnoxious 16 year old kid who obviously has never handled such responsibility in his entire lifetime. He’s the reason I left AmericanWx and refuse to return until he’s long gone. Good riddance. I’m actually shocked he’s still a mod, they need to invoke the 5th amendment.

I had someone in their late 50s in my graduating class of pharmacy school. Age is just a number. Follow your dreams and you’ll have little regret, that I promise you.

I agree completely. I learned very early in my career that nothing good can come from being sarcastic if you are a person of authority. It sets a terrible tone and makes that person appear uncaring no matter what the intentions. You can still be funny, but not at the expense of others. I can’t believe Wow hasn’t run him and Buckeye off. I miss many of the posters from the good old days. I’m glad many of the good ones (like yourself) have found their way over here.
