Just got a feeling we'll pay with a big Severe WX outbreak in the spring, especially if we're transitioning into a Nino... 1932, 1957, 1974, 1998, 2008, and 2020 stick out with what we're going through currently.

Already saw a tree with a few pink buds can’t confirm if it was cherry though, but yeah Wednesday probably 70s with westerly flow, and Friday 70s in the WAA regime ahead the front

I haven’t noticed any yet down my way. Typically it’s the Bradford pears that the buds will come up first and unfortunately I have plenty of those.

Now you can understand why I was so angry this morning.

So you were saying Roanoke does bad in marginal setups with CAA? Is it downsloping?

It’s many things. Lower elevation, city heat island and my most favorite idea is how the mountains are orientated. When cold air comes from the NW thru the mountains it takes a lot to seep in. The worse thing I’ve realized after all these years is the way warm air funnels perfectly into Roanoke using the mountains to the west. I’ve lost count of the amount of embarrassing marginal cold air snow events be complete duds.

It almost sounds like the same phenomenon that occurs in the upstate of SC with the CAA.

That’s pretty wild given Roanoke’s pretty decent location.

Are temps warmer at say 5k' than at the BL tonight or about the same? Certainly not colder up there.

 

[CaryWx]

Just tossing this out there for extra giggles.

This is my last post about this I promise but like this is wild
