*May and sometimes even June , the high plains of Montana get snow every month except the core summer months pretty much . Although they can score in even June or grab a dusting as early as august .

I remember seeing snow on the ground around Cheyenne Wyoming a week before Memorial Day in 2014
 
I’ve watched so many videos and read articles and heard personal accounts of the storm of ‘93. I mean it’s just ridiculous! Heavy snow warnings down to Demopolis AL, widespread blizzard conditions across the SE, strong tornadoes in Florida. It’s just insane

I so badly want another storm that we 20 years later that we still will be reminiscing about. January 2011, is the closest one outside of NC, although 2017 would work too.. CLT gets 2014, and the Triad gets 2018.

We lived in Druid Hills at that time, I remember walking the street with my dad and brothers with snow to our kneecaps. That was the 1st snow storm I saw lighting an heard thunder. Snow drifts had to be 1-3 ft in areas. My dad recorded it and I need to find that video. I just wish I was older at the time.

Im hoping and praying for an epic winter storm this year. We are overdue. Can't remember the last time there was a boardwide major winter storm.

It blows my mind. I just have nothing that comes close to that. I wanna say there was heavy snow and strong winds sometime around 2008-09

Or as you put it back in 2019, “Many of us are going to have to have knee replacement surgery for spending 10 weeks kicking the can down the road.”

Oh and let me add in... We got rid of the real torch weeks ago, but even still, we didn't have a good pattern for winter weather for us. I'm not sure where people get that idea if you simply just look at a few more maps other than just the surface map. If we have ridging in the east, it's not a...

How come every time we finally get a well placed LP system, there is no cold air to be found, yet when there is cold air abound, literally every storm cuts? WHY?!

Well now I’m trying to remember a storm that happened when I was 6-7 years old. @Webberweather53 you know of any events between 2008-2010 that gave the upstate 3-6” and brought fairly strong winds? (Sorry I don’t have more specifics, I was like 6 lol)

Quickly looking at his site, March 09 might have been your storm.

The snow depth in Carrollton is not accurate. I can assure you we never had a depth of 2". That was one of the most frustrating storms I've ever experienced. We had lots of thunder and snow but it had a very tough time accumulating. I've never seen so much thundersnow in my life.

I wouldn’t feel bad, it seems even the people who are older didn’t remember this one!

Trust me, I remember it. That was the storm which brought trees down on WxSouth's (Robert) house in Shelby due to the weight of the snow. He was posting about the trees snapping in real-time on Easternwx. It was wild that night.
