Pattern Fabulous February

I just have so little faith in a winter storm working out with such a progged strong SE ridge. That doesn't make sense to me. Probably the midatlantic but not the south east. I can't get excited about anything until that things goes away and the trough pushes more east.

Anybody got the last day CFS run of the month for February? Usually it tells the tale.

You need a little SE ridge to keep from being too suppressed . Looks good at this lead!
 
Still a cad sig this run altho weaker and I don’t like the position of the HP, bring it south some, also the HP has been weakening with time, typical.

There’s a strong signal for a Miller B. Surface features are going to bounce around 9-10 days out. Getting overly optimistic or pessimistic by one run at this lead seems silly to me.
 
That fv run yesterday that hammered nc/sc with ice and pasted the MA had similar look to feb 2014 but also Jan 2016(Jonas), I expect it to come back on some run or model
 
This is through next Saturday lol

1940-41, the 2nd in a series of 3 El Ninos during World War 2 was another classic, yet lesser known & more ancient example of a backloaded winter.

1940-41 was virtually hot garbage in NC until this storm showed up right at the end of February and saved this winter's bacon. One of those rare times where the I-85 corridor from Charlotte to Greensboro wasn't a general diving line between haves & have nots, they got cored.

Point being there's still a lot of winter left this year, even a winter storm of this magnitude shown below would push this winter's snow total in NC "above average".

Another little event came in mid March for the SW piedmont.

The next winter (1941-42) followed the same formula except the storms in late February & March were bigger & screwed over RDU.

This winter loves to produce western piedmont ice storms, wouldn't be surprised in the least even if a low tried to cut into the OH Valley, we got another one right off the bat.

And hickory getting the brunt again, honestly tho I think with this setup it has potential to be a lot worse, pretty sure there is way more snowpack to our north than previous setups
