Misc 2020/21 Fall and Winter Whamby Thread

And finally yesterday’s which was actually a surprise this far north. I believe I got .10 to .20 inches but not sure on the exact amount. Between White House and my work in Portland Tennessee I believe that there may have been as much as an inch and a half total snow accumulation. Snow fell over that area moderately for a number of hours with very cold ground temps from temps not getting out of the 30s since last Thursday. It was midnight but when I was driving home the grass was completely covered in snow. Obviously harder to tell at night but will be interesting to see the official totals for Say the Springfield area.

So this winter so far with normal to below normal stretches and multiple snowfalls albeit small has been pretty good in my area. A solid c+ maybe even a b- so far. Now if a big snowfall or two of 2-3 inches or more falls between now and the end of winter this will end up a very good winter IMO. So far 3 separate systems with 4 different snow accumulations and hopefully adding another minor one this weekend.

lol at people arguing about weather patterns with a weatherman.

You know it's been a bad stretch without snow/winter weather when people are bringing out the torches and pitch forks at our resident Meteorologist.

Nobody's bringing out the pitchforks. Come on. There are no one size fits all answers in the weather world, and this notion of you can't debate someone labeled a meteorologist, as has been intimated here a few times today, is preposterous.

I always knew it was weird like in the early 90s, would be 45 degrees with a pretty steady wind, wind chill would be 18, just didn’t feel that cold but I wasn’t arguing with science.

I'm not sure if you or anybody else remembers this in the 90s, but you could send in a request via mail to the weather channel and they would send you back a paperpack weather educational book. The windchill chart is the one thing that stood out to me the most because it was so ridiculous.

I'm stepping away from this crap for awhile. At 120 hours on the GFS, 850's look good, surface never cools down = rain. Can't get the surface to chill for crap these days. Can't get below freezing...no real cold air around. It sucks in Atlanta for many reasons, but lack of winter is a big one.

No low level cold air feed into the SE. Have to rely on dynamics for favored areas. The model could be wrong, though.

Perhaps the greatest debate I have ever seen was when LC didn't think CAD areas would get ice. I think his notorious comment was hoping we got an inch of ice and a major ice storm happened after that lol. Where is he to wish a foot of snow on here? ❄☃
