But back in the old days you could always count on at least a good dusting of snow every year. Nowadays you can go 5 years without even seeing the ground white.

Their temperatures are all screwed up. They're saying that Charleston and Wilmington are Icy despite being about 40 degrees.

At this point I'll take a quarter inch of slush. Not even sure that is doable anymore.

What? You don’t know about warm ice?

I know many people would like this to come like 100 miles northwest, but honestly I just don’t see it happening. The front that starts all this comes through in 48 hours on Thursday. The Euro has trended southeast for the past 3 runs. I just don’t see there being time for a trend reversal that big to happen. Sure the GFS trended northwest, but it’s northwestern shifts have stopped at least for now and seem to have met the Euro midway. I could be completely wrong, and I’d definitely like to see what the short range models have to say before saying that more northwestern areas won’t be in the bullseye, but this is looking more and more like a SE Virginia and NE/Central North Carolina storm as the models hone in on it. These areas haven’t scored in a long time, and I think they (myself included lol) deserve a decent storm lol. While the QPF does tend to overperform on the NW side in these events and hopefully that would put more people into the game, that wouldn’t necessarily be a NW trend.
I must have missed that lecture at weenie academy.

One thing you must keep in mind, times are a changin'. Thangs dont work like they once did.
Wait for the higher resolution/meso models to identify precipitation expansion. Globals struggle

I'm standing outside in the beautiful sunshine and asking myself why I am wishing for snow. This sunshine feels really good.

Hell, I will take anything other than that freezing rain crude. Been outside cleaning up limbs all morning.

I think what some folks are trying to say is don't expect this to be like Jan 1988. Not everyone is going to be happy.

If the Euro is right alot of people in NC outside the mountains get a decent snow.

There have been long stretches of no snow storms in Atlanta. Early 2000's were blank or really light events. Also, some really heavy snows have fallen near Atlanta in recent years, but just not at the official recording site. It's a crap shoot in Atlanta. I guess we need more volcanoes erupting and a real grand solar minimum to change things.

I'm hoping for this outcome. It's a good look for so many that have missed out over the years.

Looks like the first real chance for me and many others since 2018. Hoping to break the streak of all my snow for the last 3 winters altogether not even adding up to my annual snow average

Ban all the real Mets on here! We got birdbrain, accu35,and Jimmy
I think you will be fine. Now down this way with the small sample size I have every system outside of March systems have verified lower than modeling or more mixed than modeling.

I got a light dusting in a few patchy areas.
I smell a little wish casting in the main thread I’m gonna stay out of it for the rest of the day! I made my point, days ago. Congrats S/E Virginia, N/e NC, down into Raleigh!

I grew up in Riverdale on the south side and I seem to remember getting some snow most years. It’s a little foggy at this point.

A cursory look at any of the models should give you hope of getting more than that over the next couple of weeks. I mean the prospects for accumulating snow look about as good as they can for us. And yes the sunshine is great. We had 2+ inches two days ago And now I just got in a round of lunchtime tennis with the wife. Life is good!

Not 40/44 either over here ?
I’ll STOP THE COUNT with this map. Looks good.

You know I'm really torn about this winter because well my job is driving around delivering and if we actually get a snowstorm I'm gonna be stuck at home ? (which I hardly take a day off because I hate being home too long) and I actually have been liking the warmer days in between the fronts
But on the other hand my expectations are higher here for snow vs where I've lived before. It's definitely a weird winter for me
Only at the airport. Stop being dramatic. The northwestern side of Atlanta got 12 in of snow back in 2017. I'm pretty sure that caught up those people with any snow droughts.
