Misc Cold Season Complaining

I mean it's all relative. I have no interest in 40 below or upper midwest type cold for months on end. But a once in awhile, legitimate cold night or two and couple days below freezing isn't some crazy concept. Much of the country would laugh at that kind of cold anyway. We all have our things. Some people wish for heat and I can't imagine wanting more of that.

Relative to the rest of the world at our latitude we are impressively cold. No where else will you find places at Raleigh’s latitude and altitude with winter averages this cold and especially record lows this low, courtesy of being on the east side of a continent that stretches to the pole

Yeah even out here I'll believe it when I see it 🤣 the closest real snow so far has still been stuck in Colorado. Even my friend in Kansas nothing so far... We gotta work on that if we're gonna have a shot

Long way to go still. I guess the good news is most of the good stuff is still 10 days out. There is time

Jinan, China which is in Southeast Asia has a similar latitude as Raleigh and their average January temps are 40/24 !

Yeah but their record low is only -3.5… in the eastern us anywhere that averages a high of 41 would have a higher diurnal and record low of like -20-25

True story, I recently participated in interviews for someone who worked there. I don't work with them.

I just appreciate them pushing back some. I know it's not the most professional thing but the fact that people can't put out a forecast anymore without someone criticizing it before the forecast period starts is tired.

My shop doesn’t allow us to correct people even when it’s really egregious. We pleaded to go after ------------- for impersonating our forecast and instead our PIO sent out a weak email professing our love and adoration for him and all media “partners”. Certainly didn’t and doesn’t represent my views.

So in that regard, I can respect where they are coming from. But IMO, they look silly clapping back about temp anomalies 7 days out or more.

It would be fantastic if we could start seeing some coastal lows firing in the fantasy range that drop like a ridiculous amount of snow on the Carolinas at some point. Seems like every run looks great as it digs into the mid & deep South then goes to crap once it crosses over the mountains.

The ensembles continue to look great though!

Not professional at all to argue with a yokel post like that. Can make them look like an idiot with a clever high brow response w/o having to use words like stupid and sh*t

There is a group of eps members that drive a clipper SE to like Ark/Ms then bomb a new low either in the NE gulf or off the SE coast. Something to watch to see if that group gains some traction over the coming days.
