Misc 2020/21 Fall and Winter Whamby Thread

[Jimmy Hypocracy]

Should we start a thread to discuss starting threads?

Great idea. I’ll start it

The best thing about living in Columbia, SC is that I never have to get my expectations up. This is the place where cliff divers land. Yeah I threw out Feb '73 yesterday but do I reasonably expect it to happen? Of course not. Even in the best patterns we are never guaranteed a storm. Enjoy the fantasy storms for what they are. Use them to study what it takes to achieve snow here and move on if it changes. At least you'll know what to look for when the next storm comes. That being said, I'll still be watching for the SE as a whole, and just maybe I could be one of the lucky ones. ?

IMO, you just described most of the south and definitely the deep south.

Only good news is there is only 24 more days left of Feb and really winter for most of outside of N/W NC and the mountains. If this day 8-9 deal doesn't work out I will be hoping for some warm weather.

Went from a major snowstorm to a cold liquid rain in 24 hours. I swear, we have worse luck than what San Francisco 49ers or Dallas Cowboys had this season.

Yep...worn out of the 34F rain and almost great patterns. A canonical mod nina pattern would be nice right about now.

I feel like people try to post banter in the storm threads but word it so that it doesn’t seem like they are lol

I freaking hate the SER!

I'm just not buying the ice maps. Climo says Major Ice just doesnt happen from Mid February onward, especially in the deep south. In fact, I can't think of one instance in the last 40 years where the I-20 corridor got major ice in Mid-Late Feb or March.

Climo doesn't matter lol.

I really don’t know why people would want an ice storm. I guess to each their own.

I haven't seen Larry (GaWx) much lately. Has anyone heard from him recently ?

It's been a while since we had a major ice storm. We are overdue for a ice storm in the SE.

He tested positive for COVID a few weeks back, I have not seen him since last week when he said he was improving at the time. I hope he's ok

February 12, 2014 would beg to differ, and if you include NC, February 17, 2015 and March 7, 2014. The chance of frozen precipitation doesn't vanish in February like you seem to insist for some reason.
