Misc Cold Season Complaining

You can buy a battery maintainer.. aka a trickle charger you hook up during the winter fairly cheap and it works for mowers etc.
 
Ah...here we go again.

I was trying to take a little bit of break from focusing on weather models for a bit as well (still probably will try). Just looked at the GEFS overall pattern and skipped looking at the individual ensembles.

Anyway, I'll say what I said probably two weeks ago (edit: just involving the GFS), just give me half of what the Euro depicted this afternoon and then I'll be happy for the typical Nina to take over in February.

1988 loading on the euro

Moved it here to keep the forum moderators happy and to keep that thread solely on the pattern and model recognition.
88 was one for the ages.
I was a senior in HS that year and it was epic.
Hit the entire board but was outstanding N of 85.
I was living in the same general area then as I do now but we were on the S side of Paris mountain.
It began snowing around 5:30 am that morning and preceded to snow the next 12-14 hours heavily.
The temp was 18° when it started but quickly settled down to 12° and stayed there the remainder of the storm at GSP.
GSP ended with around 15 inches maybe 16.
But we had close to 20 imby that bc we were on the South facing slope of Paris mountain.
Due to orientation of the storm and the over running it quickly piled up.

It stuck immediately,
They were calling for 1-3 which was normal back then,
We had 3 inches before 7 am.
They kept adjusting to the next 3 inch range till we got to 12+.
It was glorious!
Been chasing that storm since!
Snow stayed on the ground where I lived for a month if memory serves.
We missed 3 plus weeks of school.
To the point that they started to talk about Sat school & going into June.
This coming off the 87 foot storm the year before.
87 was a much warmer storm but still epic.
Also the storm in 88 was during a La Nina if memory serves.
It's all about timing.
Had to share that,...

The Euro created Feb 1899 part 2. Heavy Snow with temperatures in the teens to low 20s would be sight to behold. I still say this upcoming pattern favors areas west of the Apps, but give me what the Euro is showing and I would be set for next 2-3 years when it comes to snowfall.

Great story. I was 9 living in Rutherford County (I live about 6 miles East of where I was then.
88 was the best storm ever and I have also been chasing that one ever since.

That is one storm I recall we knew as coming fairly far out. Also the 2002 Jan storm as well. At least a week

I can add 2/12/10 as well. I gambled starting a thread on a defunct forum several days out and won.

I'd prefer this get within 7 days now, but there's enough of a signal to say something can probably happen in this time frame.
