Misc 2021 Spring/Summer Whamby Thread

I might try to dabble in the sandhills convection/piedmont trough stuff

@Webberweather53 is there a lot of literature out there about this

 

[jackendrickwx]

That's probably going to be your best option and it would be driven by county size and make up. A larger county like Wake might need to be broken down a little more versus a rural county especially since UHIs can help convection

Yeah some of those tiny mountain counties really could just be split in half. And speaking for the upstate specifically, the extreme northern tier of the northernmost counties is often very different from the southern. Take Pickens/Oconee for example, the northern parts have consistent 1000’+ elevation, then down at Clemson and the lakelands it’s 600-700 or so

I've always considered summer heat to start around May 25 and last until Sept 15. Late Sept can often be very pleasant.

Last year September was nice but the previous few years were unbearable throughout the month. September 2018 we didn't have a low below 60°F at all.

2018 was highly unusual. 50s for lows are pretty common in Late Sept. I've even seen 30s in Late Sept deep into Georgia. I know the early 2000's had some really nice Septembers.

I never stay inside imma be honest lol. No matter the weather . Also when will you let me train you so you can lose weight ?!!! I’ll work your ass off!

I'm am coining new jargon for southern winters for different patterns. Common patterns are COD ? (cold overly dry) and WOW (warm overly wet) and WOD? (warm overly dry).

It is very rare to see a COW? (cold overly wet) pattern having both the cold and moisture needed for snow.

Imo the worst of the heat/humidity is always mid July to late July, pool time intensifies around then

Through mid August. Early part of August can be down right sweltering with stagnant flow under the ridge, which is usually peaking at that time.

I think back porch swinging will be my version of @GaWx ’s strolls

Had my first real sweat of 2021 running today. I feel like I accomplished more on my run today because I was sweaty.

I consider summer like weather to begin in the second half of May and end at the end of September. Sometimes recently the heat has pushed into early October.

People think we only have 2 months of heat and humidity here. Lol. Maybe back in the 1300s.
