Misc Cold Season Complaining

Unless you plan to move, don't you mean 6 inches deep in snow? Even then the 6 feet deep will probably come first

I’ve been waiting for 6 inches for over 35 years in my backyard. Hasn’t happened yet. I got 5.75 inches in Jan 2011 and 5 inches with that last storm 3 years ago.

bit the bullet and getting a davis weather station

undecided if it's going on the roof or some elevated post i include with a garden

anybody with tips regarding data, maintenance, positioning, anything regarding these things, please post

Elevated post, clear of trees and not near any structures or paving. That way you can easily access it without fall hazards. That's my recommendation. Place it 2m above the ground.

A little rain overnight then it cleared out add that to the warm air and cold water around the river in the ocean and the fog this morning has been some of the thickest I've ever seen. How do they even measure a negative 25

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?

Climate change. Notice the downtick in Boone's snow as a example.

A squirrel in my backyard told me no. He told me massive Winter storm on January 12th.

It seems as if our mountains and Mid Atlantic can’t buy a good storm anymore. My wife’s family in Bradford PA also discuss how little it snows there now as well. Must be central plains or west coast who have been getting the bulk of it lately

Still in Miami. Tropical downpours tomorrow

Winter was never supposed to start until mid-January ™

Cold December was not expected and therefore was a bonus ™

We need lots of cutters to set up a colder regime ™

Low-frequency forcing necessitates a poleward extended jet, constructively interfering with the stratospheric vortex, weakening the Hadley Cell/-EAMT couplet, reinvigorating the Walker Cell, igniting the MJO pulse along the maritime continent, which abruptly flips the QBO, forcing a -PNA/-NAO combo, creating cold and stormy conditions across the entire lower 48, as the STJ becomes reenergized, fueling massive, historic snowstorms ™

The models have corrected colder as we approach verification ™

What did I miss?

This thread single handedly makes me hope it actually never snows again

But we know we are getting a mega-torch in Feb, as we always do in ninas/ninos/anything...so your saying our winter is getting condensed down into the last 2 weeks of January...seems fool proof!

Can you use your powers for good and actually hope it snows! We need all the good mojo we can get!

75 degrees, I’m getting eaten up by mosquitoes and I have the a/c on. This is not fun.

Amazing how Shanghai which is at sea level and the same latitude as Valdosta, GA can manage to have no high temps above 55 for the next 2 weeks. Meanwhile, Valdosta is forecast to have multiple days in the 70s in that time period. I guess it’s easier to get cold in the Southeast part of Asia than it is in the Southeast part of North America.
