Pattern December Dud šŸ‘€

If this is accurate; we're a week before Christmas and there is almost no accumulation anywhere below about 6k or 7k feet in elevation; not in Denver, The NE cities, the plains; and only a dusting around Chicago and Minneapolis. This has got to be about as paltry as it gets.

The wild thing is it hasnā€™t been related to warmth in the east. Itā€™s been plenty cold this month. Just no snow. I think the ski resorts up around beech mountain are already north of 20ā€ on the season

Itā€™ll improve over the next week but then get obliterated again shortly after šŸ˜‚

Its been dry, qpf and will continue through winter. We chase Cold down here and rightfully so. But it takes 2 ingredients to get snow. We take 1 for granted.
 
Heā€™s awful. The worst, even.View attachment 156219
Donā€™t worry, this Saturday you will see side by side comparisons of real time weather for Saturday & the fantasy run that the GFS run showed for this Saturday..

And itā€™ll say..

I know WRAL has an agenda with just about every news item they give the public these days but there is no denying that weather patterns have changed during the last fifty years and winter weather is harder to come by. The warmer average temperatures are not a surprise though considering that the temperature sensors at KRDU run three to five degrees in many cases above those of surrounding weather stations.
