Misc 2019 Banter & Friendly Conservation

I want everyone to get snow, I just hate when the simulated radar imagery starts floating around. It can be so deceiving!
No snow for us, delayed cold air equals cold showers while we watch people in GA and NC get their flizzard.
 
A few years ago, someone I knew from work had a stroke at 39. He lived for almost six years after that, but had lost the ability to walk and do anything for himself. He seemed to be in good health, too. I played basketball with him regularly.

Yeah Luke Perry dying is pretty shocking to me too

Right after they announced a 90210 reunion this summer too
 
This will be the only time in my life that I can remember not seeing at least flurries in a Winter, no matter how bad the pattern was. I'm 32.

I haven't even seen sleet, although there were reports of it around the area this year.

If it's any consolation, I know someone on Long Island, they were initally forecast to get 4-6 inches of snow, then 5-8, then upto 9 inches. They ended up with 1-3 inches on the island and rain/slush last night/this morning. Sitting out there with that WAA sucks for them too, lol.

Yeh people around the area said they saw snow mixed with the rain when that moisture came through in Early December after that winter storm. But I never saw it. So I haven't seen anything either this year. Not even sure if the airport has reported a trace this Winter.
 
Folks are really going to chase for a few flurries.

They likely haven't. Local news would have been all over it.. lol
You know the weather and events are boring around here when the headline of every local news outlet is a few broken limbs and a couple half-put-together church porch posts fell over.

Brick,
I'm now 100% convinced you're the real Steve Carrell as 75% of your GIFS are of him (and are funny).
Meanwhile, to keep this from being all banter, Chicago is a mere 10 degrees at 1 PM CST. If only more of that record cold airmass can somehow work its way down into the midsouth.

That did get real scary at one point though last night. Where I was located in Oak Grove, erratic wind movement from the circulation was wild. Looks like the circulation passed like a mile or two South of me.
 
Its to easy to fly somewhere they actually get snow on the reg then to worry about some non-event locally, IMO.
 
It’s 26 degrees as of 2:12 pm today under full sunshine. That is damn impressive for March considering my average high is 54.6 degrees on this date. I got down to 19 this morning and supposed to go even lower tonight. I didn’t get any accumulating snow but I did have constant flurries from around 4pm yesterday until sometime in the wee hours of this morning.

That's what's giving the opportunity for a wintry treat for some in the SE, being on the bottom of an historic early March cold airmass. Folks, Chicago at 4 PM CST is only at 12F with sunny skies and no snowcover!!! That's some 17 F colder than the normal for mid Jan!! The low was -3. In late Feb/Mar 1960, the coldest low was 2 and the coldest high was 18. In late Feb/March 1980, the coldest low/high was -1/17. So, it is actually slightly colder than those two years there.

On another note, any Weeklies guesses? I almost forgot again!
 
I’m going to Myrtle in April. I need recommendations. Water prob to cold. Give me a to do list.
 
buffets give me the runs.i thought about going to ----’s never been
 
Wow it would have been perfect if Dallas would have gotten a snowstorm with those cold sub temps

Of course but our snowless streak lived on as usual

4 years ago tonight was a raging snowstorm and its barely snowed since

Was some mixed precip to our south again though :rolleyes:

I am so looking forward to the 70s at the end of the week and hopefully some thunderstorms
 
Guys I don't think this will be our last little winter event but some models hints at a return of cold and possible chances at winter wx.... period to watch around 17-20 of this month... @GaWx due you think that with the +pna showing up again around mid to possibly late month give the Southeastern us a chance at another last winter wx or cold hurray
 
The fact I'm even considering trying to wake up is making me go crazy. Let alone driving late at night.

If I were you, Snowflowxxl, I'd start driving. The heavier returns are tantalizing if it drops the temps but if something is going on, it's just north of Macon on the radars that I trust.

Only if the models aren't teasing us for the umpteenth time and it is real. I've still seen no evidence of the end of the cold bias. But with the El Nino really strengthening, that may help the +PNA to actually return. We'll see.
 
Kinda ot but I used to have a jacked all to heck sleep schedule and it wasn't even due to this hobby really. It was mainly because of me being young and dumb. Would sleep from 2 AM to 10 AM and sometimes stay up until 3 if I wasn't doing anything the next day. I honestly regret it, I'd love to have a more normal schedule. The one I have now is closer (1 to 9 unless I'm doing stuff) but I'd like to get even closer.

I suppose when I finally get a job that'll happen tho. ;)
