Nothing has really changed for us…only “trend” I see is this not climbing as far north up the coast. I still think a big phase bomb is coming.

It's giving me flashbacks of how we felt on Sunday after that Euro run Friday night for the Jan storm. Literally the same timing lol
It’s crazy how bad these things have trended for so many of us this winter in the 72-84 hour range. Go from ultimate Don cane snowstorms to flurries or rain. Hope a lot of those in the Carolinas trend better!

I’d say living up
There would be a diff type of annoying. Anything under 6-10” I doubt anyone even cares up there.

Yea I mean I give them crap but if I was used to getting 3’ every few years I’d be annoyed by these Nickle dimes too. Like do ppl in Avery County / Yancey ect still even track 2-4” NW Flow stuff? Lol

When I saw those foot+ totals I told the wife we may have to make something happen. I then remembered the traumatic 3.5 hour drive to blue ridge with a 1&3 year old
Chasing ain’t easy at this stage of my life but I damn sure will do it in a heart beat for a big one. Gotta thing western NC mtns will cash.

For anyone that doesn’t have me on Mute…. I’d like to apologize for my sarcastic tirade episode this AM. I woke up to an email from my oldest kids mom
About raising Child Support since she found out I got promoted, and I kind of took it out on Bernie Rayno and WPC. My apologies, best of luck to everyone and let’s enjoy what’s probably the last days of tracking together this 2025 season.

I’m torn at the moment. Plan is still to drive up Thursday afternoon. By then the main course has fallen but NW flow should still be cranking.When I saw those foot+ totals I told the wife we may have to make something happen.

Other option is leave around lunch Wednesday but if I do that we may be driving into the heart of it. Airbnb check in isn’t til 4. Idk
Hard for me to complain because most models still have me getting some kind of wintery event. But, can't help to wonder if these dryer QPF trends will continue.
I’ve got friends in group chats here talking about 8-12” based on their weather apps. I don’t even know what to say, LOL.

Not sure this is the right place to post this. Found it interesting. Glen Burns posted this on facebook a few days ago.
Today is the anniversary of the coldest temp ever in Atlanta.
In Gainesville, the thermometer at the railroad depot fell to 7 below, but private residences' thermometers went as low as minus 15. It was the town's coldest weather since 1855, when 5 degrees was recorded. Five inches of snow covered the ground.
Atlanta was 9 degrees below zero, (our coldest temp ever) and the Chattahoochee River at West Point was a sheet of ice. Winds of 35 miles per hour brought in 4 inches of snow that kept street cars from running. Numerous residents were treated at Grady Hospital for frostbitten hands, feet and noses. A mail carrier froze to death on his route. The year was 1899.
The Mississippi River froze over all the way to the Gulf of Mexico, leaving chunks of ice floating in the ocean. The port of New Orleans was iced over.

Other low temperatures
Tallahassee, Florida dipped to -2 degrees.
Mobile, Alabama fell to -1.
Washington, D.C., hit -15° F, an all-time low for the city.
Sandy Hook, Kentucky reached -33 °F.
Dayton, West Virginia reached -35° F.
Milligan, Ohio reached -39° F.
Camp Clark, Nebraska reached -47° F.
Fort Logan, Montana reached -61° F.

Why doesn’t anyone wanna discuss the weekend threat?
We are distracted, haha. But there does seem to be something there.
I love all the people arguing about whether it's trending better or worse in the main thread. The reality is that what E NC wants and what W NC / SW VA wants is different. I'm quite fine with a flatter system, amped will likely just mean more IP and / or ZR. And we can get plenty of snow accumulations with flatter systems, anyways.

Moving the Climo convo to here …. I think We all … Asheville, CLT, Raleigh metros should all actually gang up on the triad …. They’re the ones who really always end up smiling regardless of Setup. I swear a Triangle of GSO - PTI up to Danville … if you’re in that Triangle you’re absolutely stone cold money in multiple setups. You’re far enough west/N for CAD , Far enough East (GSO) for a Coastal on western extent. Just so many more ways to score geography wise than SW Mountains, CLT, Anywhere else in NC who need VERY specific setups to cashout
That area is like Kansas Bball imo…. May not take titles anymore but they’re always gonna atleast be in the vicinity as a threat regardless of the season

NGL this is disappointing
Should've stayed in Wake County!
But in all seriousness it wouldn't surprise me if this trends back better for you all. We walking a tightrope out here.
Yeah been in church all morning lol but I still want to see that a little further south. Not much wiggle room@RBR71, u up?
I don't even care if it snows here. I mean I hope it does, but I'm so tired of these things trending so that we're having to scratch and claw for QPF when it's cold. We look great 4 days our and then everything falls apart on the way in.Should've stayed in Wake County!

You know how it works! So difficult to get good QPF in the Western Carolinas when it gets colld
Someone just said the storm is over for central NC after the 12z Euro just dropped like 8-10" at RDU. I just can't.

And here I thought that moving to Statesville would result in better snow days. This winter has been a big tease to Iredell in general.

Definitely do feel like there's too much complaining over on the storm thread. We already learned from January that a lot can still change inside 72 hours.
