Damn well better be over, or we might as well phone in springtime.

I think 2 but 2 big ones. Most over winter will suck as normal.
Depends on where in the SE. The I20 corridor under. 0 to be precise. I85 corridor under. 1 to be precise. Anywhere else is fair game for 2 or more.
The Cumberland Plateau is just tall enough to be a problem. I hate it when the cold holds up in NE Alabama and take forever to bleed over.
Indeed. If you’re southeast of the Cumberland Plateau and northwest of the Blue Ridge, you probably rarely ever see freezing rain.
1994 is the only time I can remember getting freezing rain without a wedge. We waited all day for the temp to drop a few degrees.

Atlanta is on the I-20 and I-85 corridor, so what does that mean for Atlanta ?
Zilch BHM, ATL over to CAE. That area has been horrendous for any type of winter weather for awhile now. GSP, CLT and RDU luck up and get 1 CAD storm but still finish below average.

Atlanta will see some snow this year. Hopefully a crippling ice storm as well.

A crippling ice storm with several inches of snow on top

That’s more like it!A crippling ice storm with several inches of snow on top
Easily 3+ snows in the SE mountains as that always happens. Probably more like 5+ T+ mountain snows.
I think we need to make the over/under on how many storms a thread. Maybe we just start a full over/under thread on upcoming events lol

The power of positive thinking folks.... If you're positive about winter then winter will deliver.

The Jan 11 storm is one of my all time faves. Snow and ice combined. It had incredible staying power, unlike any I've seen before.
I'm about 14 miles northwest of 85 and 20 miles north of 20 and I've gotten 2.5 inches last year and 12 inches in 2017-18, so not completely horrendous.

Haha people have tried that for years here hasn't worked
There has been a sharp cutoff around Atlanta. I don't think downtown and points east has seen anything of significance since 2014. Is that correct? I know for sure CAE hasn't.

Don't forget the big snowstorm in Dec 17. 8" of snow south of I-20. Close to a foot just north of I-20.
This is primarily true. The airport got around 2" from the back end snow from the December 7-8th storm, as well as another inch or two from the January event. They missed out completely last year, as well as the year before. The cutoff has primarily been south of I-20 on the west side and I-85 on the northeast side below 1000' elevation.
For reference:
December 2017
February 2020

The Dec 17 snow was stunningly beautiful.... I'll never forget the bright blue skies the day after the snow fell. It melted quickly but it was the prettiest snow I've ever seen.
This clown might actually be onto something with his sixth (!!!) forecast.
Yeah I'm tired of turning on YouTube and he has a new forecast every other day

I just think it's silly and pointless to predict winter because it never goes as planned.
Same a usual. Anyone north of 20 and 85 scores.
With the exception of 2 or so years we’ve had some solid winters since 2010.

We will get that I-20 special again one of these days. Maybe in the next 20 years.
It’s crazy how rappers songs almost always come true
In this song (2 years ago), this rapper named “quando rondo” talked about his steppa named Timothy leeks which he calls “leeky” and had a few quotes saying things like
“Leeky in the backseat with that chopper, we gon' swang on 'em“
“Leeky in the backseat and he got that big four five on him”
“Hop out on that street and put that fire on 'em”
2 years later from that song, a few days ago, there was a altercation between quando rondo and king von in Atlanta, and quando rondos steppa “leeky” got out his car and shot von
The theme is, in a lot of these rap songs, there’s almost always a message that ends Fulfilled, a lot people don’t notice that, until it happens, it’s truly sad to see these young rappers kill each other, but out there in the streets, there’s always something going on that we normal people don’t know about, it’s crazy out there
Just wanted to share this as I thought it was interesting

They were sunbathing on the beach in the Canadian Maritimes today. Incredible. Mid 70s in Northern Maine. 80 degrees all the way to the OH/MI border.
This might be the smartest thing I’ve ever seen posted on this site and I’ve followed/lurked on this site for awhile
