Misc Cold Season Complaining

This Breckenridge trip just has me like it better snow for real in Tulsa this year 🤣 I'm good for a bit to wait but like yeah. This has proven it can still snow...

The place I was at yesterday is at mid winter conditions on December 10th. Mind boggling
 
It verified best at 120 so obviously it’s accurate at 300!!

Man it snows West of the Apps with ease. Eastern TN has had like 100 Winter weather events so far this Winter. Please do something different.
I seem to remember a time when the mountains actually helped north ga and the Carolinas get snow/ice but it's been so long I'm starting to wonder if it was just a fever dream. I Hope classic cad winter storms are still possible 🥶

CAD (cold air damming) does, but we can't see to figure out the pieces of the puzzle to do that right anymore.
 
I like where the favorable teleconnections look to be between last week in Dec and into early Jan. Good climo period to support a hit

Cold air the last few years has been more to the central US, not east, so the mountains have been a barrier to the cold getting to us. When the cold makes it east, the mountains help us to lock in. The way I see it anyway.

Yeh I was just explaining how the mountains help us & how it hasn't meant a whole lot lately because we can't properly get the pieces together to take advantage of a CAD.

I completely agree on the theory of cold air having an issue getting over the Apps, especially Arctic air. There has been a prime example of it for the last few years. But I think our main issue is a poorly positioned trough.
