Yeah, snow is rapidly disappearing in the southeast. Unfortunately, our excitement is going to come from severe weather and hurricanes. We were actually lucky not to have gotten a 2nd big hit in the western Carolinas this year.
What is the problem? Can we not discuss weather without it turning into debate, good grief

This site thrives on winter weather so anything contrary to it gets frowned upon. Thanks for Banning me. Enjoy your clouds. No better than Buckeye.

To snow or not to snow, that is the question. Snow depth sucks, UNC sucks, we need to collectively try to drum up some excitement for the incoming clipper and hope it can produce at least a passing flurry or some street light folklore.

Not so. We like severe too!!!
Dude you were only banned for 7 days from Dec. thread (replies only) but if you wish to continue to be disrespectful I can make it a full ban. I'd prefer not to do that but I don't mind either, your choice.

I couldn’t take a ban. What would I do without the whamby thread? My wife won’t listen to my complaining.
Expectations are the key to your sanity. Just ride the wave of hopelessness. It’s really not so bad. 
Check out this old nugget. Good times 
@Metwannabe you gotta stay up for the 0z’s, I got a sunrise to catch

I know I want have to worry about getting moisture on the 18hr Brisket overnight 23rd. Cause it will be below freezing all layers of the atmosphere over mby. Gurantee dry wx
Even in 2019, we were still chasing 10+ day cold!
Man, I go out for the evening and y'all get into some mess 
Looks like we definitely need to get the pre-emergent on order.
Atlanta looks safe to finish above average for December again.

When asked my age I say I’m 50. People respond “wow, you’re old enough to remember when NC used to to get snow”
Between the lack of water from drought in the reservoirs, and no cold for the rest of the month, this is potentially disastrous for NC ski areas.
Just had a strong CME impact at L1 with upper 20s BT and BZ getting down to -20. But it’s cloudy. Can’t even have auroras
I think one of the funniest things that’s happened the last few years is one of the strongest, most impressive cad/storm combos I’ve ever seen from a Synoptics/surface standpoint happening on easter weekend 2023. It was 45 degrees at Augusta and Justin Thomas was hitting a 3 wood into 18 before they said “screw this” and called play. Had that happened in Jan or feb we would still be talking about it

Given our situation over past three years, I can't help but wonder; how did we ever get yearly snowfall in this area? I ask that, not in a sarcastic or obtuse manner, but with real wonder.
I saw flakes fly 2 years ago, but haven't seen a single flake or pellet since, and nothing cover the ground since Jan 22. This year, I have received over 6 inches of rain in the first half of a solidly colder than normal December, and not even sniffed anything frozen. How did we ever actually get cold and precip to meet up; and actually happen multiple times per winter in most years past?

When we are down and out like we are now it makes you wonder will we ever see snow again. I know where your coming from. It's like how did it ever snow around here before. Its like you want to give but we look forward this very short time every year. I guess we should have zero expectations every winter from now on. I don't know. So frustrating these days is a understatement.
Yeah at this point, we can wonder if it will ever (significantly) snow again. My thinking is our average occurrences of winter events have been diminished for one reason or another. But because we do see the models constantly throwing out fantasy storms, that means it is still possible to get a big event. Will we this year-- I don't know. But, I do think it's possible.
This thread single handedly makes me hope it actually never snows again

If that was the case upstate SC over to Atlanta would be glaciated
Unless you plan to move, don't you mean 6 inches deep in snow? Even then the 6 feet deep will probably come first
