I think we need to say west of Atlanta got snow twice. East of Atlanta to Athens is the place snow comes to die like SC.

It was isolated. One part of town got nothing, the other got up to 5 inches. The cold air aloft was ridiculous. All rain in Irmo, I drove into Lexington and it was snowing so hard it was sticking on the pavement... on November 1st.

It apparently can snow at the beginning of November in the midlands but not in the dead of winter even with a halfway decent pattern. Doh!

Welp, unfortunately for the people that got nothing then, the snow gods are showing no mercy.

We got snow in March 2017 also, so I can’t complain to much. But it was a half inch and it melted as soon as it stopped snowing. When I say it’s been 5 years, I mean it’s been over 5 years since a Winter storm. November 1st in spots certainly met winter storm critera In spots haha.

In November 1st, I remember the NWS telling me "no advisory needed" and I sent a picture and they finally issued one, ROFL.
 
Yeh that warm nose has been deadly for CAE as of late. It seems as if it’s more and more difficult to avoid it. But I think that has came with model watching more and more as I’ve got older. I’m sure it’s always been there, doing it’s damage.
 
Im so glad this horrible winter is over temps today made it up to about the middle 70's here in North Central Alabama... On to spring finally I guess I'll start getting ready for early grill season while cutting the grass this weekend

Those were different times. Different climate. The earth was cooler back then.

Lol what? For crying out loud this happened in MAY... Do you realize how much warmer our temps are at that time of the year even against early-mid April? Holy crap... Even back in the good ol days, the mean temperatures at that time of the year are as warm as they are today in late April it's still virtually impossible even back then. Again, sun angle doesn't matter :)

And how does the angle of a heat source and a freak instance of thundersnow have anything to do with climate change? It's not like this happened more than maybe a few times if not that once.
 
Yeah! And because the climate is warmer now, the tornadoes will be worse than the tri city deal in 1925! you know, it will do more dmg and kill more people cause the earth is warmer now! lets forget the fact there are too many humans and buildings on this planet! ITS ALL THE WARMER EARTH! GAHHHHH THE WORLD IS ENDING IN 12 YEARS!

;)o_O:eek: ...
 
really. imagine if the tri city tornado happened again, today, it would be way worse.. the storm could be the exact same intensity, shape, size, everything and some moron would say "SEE, TOLD YOU THE CLIMATE IS CHANGING, ITS THE END OF THE WORLD WE NEVER HAD STORMS LIKE THIS BEFORE! LETS INVEST 3000 INFINITY DOLLARS INTO GOING GREEN RIGHT NOW TO FURTHER MY POLITICAL AGENDAAAAA!"

Anyways, theres a climate change thread... just saying.

But Shawn, Come on ... everybody knows what's happening next week ... :confused:
 
RDU's average high temperature on May 2nd is 77F, with a low in the lower 50s, equivalent to our average highs in the dead of winter. Unless the earth has warmed like 15F since the beginning of the industrial revolution, that storm in May 1939 is absolutely nuts does not matter how long ago it happened. The COOP observer in Roxboro reported snow falling AND accumulating during HIGH NOON in early May.

Repeat after me:
Sun angle does not matter

I dont know why anyone would say sun angle doesnt matter. Is sun angle everything ? No. But it certainly does matter in March in certain situations. Of course if its snowing hard enough or if its way below freezing it wont matter, but otherwise it could be a very significant factor.

if it can snow at noon in early May and stick, it both does not matter and is not a significant factor.

Let's go to the moon. Can't have climate change if there is no climate.
 
So I'm going to NYC with my family this weekend, I'm leaving Friday night/Saturday morning so maybe I'll catch that storm that's supposed to hit there.
