Misc Cold Season Complaining

you weren’t even alive in 1981

Most on here were not. I was 9 that year and the summer was fairly hot and dry. I'm not sure the board could handle a winter like we had in 1981-82 though. It started with an icestorm right before New Years Day and continued into January, which is maybe the coldest month I can remember. There was one day I do not think it ever got above 14 degrees and at least 3-4 straight days with lows of 3-5 degrees. It featured back-to-back snowstorms here in the southeast too. The Atlanta snowjam was in January 1982 also.

What the chance Northern upstate sees flurries or a light snow

Feeling cynical here; it doesn't seem like there is any pattern that will ever lead to snow for us ever again. There's always a fly in the ointment; too warm at 850, too warm at the surface, dowslopping, too far from the Atlantic, too far South, too far West, too far East...it just seems like it can't happen anymore.

I honestly think it’s never going to snow in the upstate again besides some rogue flurries by accident here and there. And I think 1-20 and below will never see snow again at all.

it does feel moreso than usual like we're facing 3rd down and 14 for every pattern to get something together

Being in the larger weather enterprise and having other entities impersonate my own professional forecasts, I can tell you that isn't something I think very highly of.

Any and everyone is entitled to discuss and make their own predictions, but don't package them as if they represent a professional organization. If you (they) beat the professionals, feel free to boast about it afterwards too. All fair game, except for the impersonation. It's hard enough to get the message out and above all the noise and other social media voices out there as it is these days without that rubbish murking up the waters even more.
