I do... I'm just as obsessed with extreme cold as I am with snow. Both, and I vibrate like a tuning fork.

Only one thing to do after the last flake falls, besides play in the snow.
Thats start chasing the next one. We get a storm next weekend into following week, Im naming it the Gawx Storm. We all need one more fix before the mosquitoes and gnats come calling.

The last events that I think would have qualified as boardwide were Jan of 1977 and Feb of 1899. ( @pcbjr included). Both of these were associated with super cold Arctic air.

... and for more news ...
?

Was it in place before, or after the events? I just worry about suppression and shearing of any kind of energy we can get going. It's nothing more sad for snow lovers than looking at a potential storm on the 500mb vort charts and see the Northern stream just murder it.

I always like moisture attacking an in place or slowly retreating Arctic Airmass. Had my ground been frozen this morning I'd have gotten 3 inches+ instead of 2.
Good question.
1) 2/1899: A first Arctic airmass had preceded the snow. Then there was modification followed by a 2nd Arctic airmass that was biblical. The Gulf low resulting in the snow (blizzardlike) formed on the super cold front that first brought in the super cold with the snow at the same time. It kind of resembled today’s storm in that regard (the timing) in that it got colder as the snow was falling.
2. 1/1977: This was more like an Alberta Clipperlike northern stream system that came in just after the first of two consecutive super cold airmasses. So, moisture was limited. Right after it came the 2nd super cold airmass.

Not much of an ICON fan, and verbatim nothing to write home about , but Wednesday through Friday next week look very interesting. Seems like a whole lot of potential for somebody in the south.

today's snow storm provides the snow ground cover which will ensure next week's frigidity and subsequent heavy snowfall

It needs to dig some more to get the upstate involved

This is when we need moisture to move through
Today’s snowfall will be melted in 24 hours except in a few shady spots (with the exception of some in E NC/SE VA that are getting higher totals.

They are some showing up next week.
Some pretty legit NW flow potential setting up for the NC mountains next week. Could be some incredible late season skiing up in Avery county

Beginning to wonder if we may end up at average or just slightly above for this month. But the cold showing up at least to me is more run of the mill and probably only ties the lowest, unless you go far south.
