Pattern February 2024

[WolfpackHomer91]

March will be too late except for some anomalous (dripping snow). Saw a decent one once when I was in Greenville, NC back in '83. Late Feb's a little better but last good one was Feb 2015(?) which happened on 23rd-25th--That's doable but getting rough late in the year.

March 2009 , Maybe @BullCityWx or someone remembers that one it was a deform band that came thru I believe after Raining all day. It was a Sunday Night I was forecasted 6-8" in Concord and got like 4", but drove up to my then GF house in China Grove they had about 6". The next Saturday it was 72 degrees and over for that year

For those of us in the Deep South, I think that we all would take a repeat of February 25-26 1914 and be not severely disappointed with no winter weather for the next year or two. The law of averages says that the entire region is well overdue for a classic late winter storm, I keep maintaining that this current snow drought is going to be broken in a big way when the time finally transpires for it to end.

Or one of these.

Yup, that was the one that really focused on the southern piedmont. We had rain at 4, heavy sleet by 5:30 and then eight hours of heavy wet snow. I ended up just around ten inches total. That storm was an absolute layup, easiest one I've ever tracked.

I have some video of thundersnow with that one. I need to digitize it so to speak…it was on a small camcorder

I'd love for it to be right since it fits my timing but it could be a little fast. That said we only do warm maps and point out negatives around here to drive the false narrative that winter is over

I truly hope so, but at this point I'm going to have to see it to believe it. I mean this is Feb 2nd for Pete's sake;

Explains why it has been so quiet lately and the level of discouragement.

This looks like a further east version of January at H5

It’s pretty typical to get spring like days in February though.

Yep. I've played a lot of golf in February the last 30+ years.

What does the temps really look like though? 500 mb looks great, but we don't live at 500mb

It’s beautiful. Fire pit and grilling out this evening. Winter is coming back after Valentine’s Day I believe.
