Misc Cold Season Complaining

Well in the coastal bomb last month, I got nothing.This one at least I saw a few flakes so that is progress I guess. Next winter we will drown in precip but there will be no cold around to help. Seems it is either or in the upper SE
 
This is a passion of yours isn't it?

Yes, I am thinking of replacing my "Rates Will Overcome All" title with "Sun Angle / Soil Temps Enthusiast". February 2020 still haunts me, LOL. 😂

Plus, as a kid I lived in the West Virginia lowlands for a few years where getting convective snow showers was pretty common during the winter. You could get several snow showers during the day that probably would've added up to 2" if the snowcover didn't melt in between showers, but every time you got the slushy half inch it would completely melt before the next one. Gets annoying, LOL!

If we learn anything from this system…

Whenever someone posts “Toss out this run, folks. It sucks”, do not toss out the run.
i don't think the worse case scenario really panned out and we were right to throw out those ukie runs, instead we got a steady trickle of one step forward two steps back, which is kind of a bummer

It seemed too like most runs would trend slightly better in the closing days, but then you got a few runs with huge abrupt shifts in the wrong direction. So in sum we were mostly taking steps back. But like you said the UKMET was crazy, my window outside is evidence to how wrong it was as it blanked MBY for most recent runs until it finally came around last night.

My lesson is....with record blocking, -AO, -NAO, confluence, weak storms will fall apart and be suppressed. That's essentially what happened here. All models just really sucked at knowing that until Sunday.
 
Well, no snow for me (no surprise), but the webcam exploration was kinda fun.

May have uncovered a place I'm going to have to think about for a vacation that I only just heard of (Sky Valley, GA).
used to go there alot for quick snow skiing venture. Got a nice little golf course as well.

500%... maybe not the first run, but if ANYTHING not named JMA/KOREAN/MOGRASS/PANGULA ect show something negative 3-4runs in a row.... its time to atleast start to head to that solution in your brain anyway jmo.
 
Thats a wrap for SC winter most likely. Ill give it a solid C to C-. Several real good set ups to only get 1 small event that didnt reach seasonal average. Think Spring!
Yeah, barring a miracle that's likely it for us. That GFS clown for early March has almost no chance of verifying for us. Another pathetic winter overall.

Hopefully once we warm up next week it stays there. Hopefully the models are wrong about any more cold weather coming up, because we are not getting any more snow around here for a long time. The 80's can't get here soon enough.

The only way we get a big snow here now will be an amped up system like we had in March 1993. Nothing else will work. It can't be in Feb or March either, it'll have to be in Jan.
 
It's funny that the two Iredell county guys who were stressed all morning are now cashing out lol.

haha, well it was just a dusting. I got something, so I'll take it. It's not like I'm overperforming or anything. Plus, I work in Huntersville where it's doing nothing, while my kids watched it come down in Troutman, lol.
