The heaviest snows with that storm just seemed to skip right over southern Mecklenburg County. I think it had to do with the way energy transferred to the coast to form the new low. CLT only had 2” while over my way in eastern Union County we had around 6.

Definitely one to remember. How can you top a white Christmas?
Got 4.5-5” of snow with that storm. I was still happy with it and somehow got a lightning strike with it at the very end I still remember that thundersnow to this day
Yeah I got in it big time, amazing rates, 11" total.... can we get a repeat please ?
Nothing wrong with that storm. Christmas was on a Saturday and then got to enjoy the day after sledding with my two oldest kids with temps in the 20s as a steady light snow fell all day

Yep, at the time I lived in NW Charlotte. The further east you went, seems more snow fell. Fro just gets more snow than me no matter where I go.
It was raining Christmas morning into lunch and I was like “oh here we go again.”
Then when we were eating Christmas lunch at my late Grandpa’s house it flipped and never stopped snowing. Wet snow and I don’t remember getting much more than 4” because ground temps were borderline here but what a storm. Once in a lifetime event. Core memories.

Man what’s coming up, it’s more exciting then usual because it’s been such a long time since a good pattern occurred in December
Talking about Christmas storm 2010, that one was a lock from a week out over on AmericanWX. Then local mets talked about it like it was a sure thing for 5 days before it happened. It was a no doubter. Primetime setup. Someone post some forecast maps.

That time is nearing but we haven’t made it quite yet. I need to see Storm5 and Dadofjax going at it, then it will be time.
What is the DGEX showing?

Many times too I think, December generally sets the stage for what we see the entire winter. 10-11 was that way I believe. Be really cool if we can stay blocky at least through January.
Low can’t just crash into a wedge line that! ???
?
Winter cancel. Nothing to see here.

Toss. Has snow in Columbia
I mean it’s not just been that we’ve not had a good pattern in December… we’ve had very little in the way of cold air. Christmas Day in shorts and flip flops is getting a little old
You ready for another trip to Cashiers? We need another repeat of last year

You should check in with your therapist about this
Don’t forget when the models basically lost the storm on the 23rd and had most of us staying dry and then they started bringing it back in the morning on Christmas Eve
Back in the day every time I would try to save a DGEX snowmap on my flip phone, it would overheat because it couldn’t handle the 10,000 color pixels from all of the snow shades
