Here's 12 inches version.

My parents’ backyard (and my childhood home, at least in my later years) is just tucked inside the 1969 area in Guilford County on the border of the 2025 and 2004 areas. Brutal.

Though they have like five 10-11.9” storms in my lifetime (2025, 2018, 2004, 2002, 2000, at least - lived in WV in 2004, though).

This map is incorrect. I had 13.5" on Saturday as well did parts of Gaston/Meck

Yes. Hard to beat NW flow in banner elk. Always a lot of fun making that drive from Ashford (dry) up through Ceossnore (flurries) to Newland (light snow) to Banner Elk (ripping) then drive up to Sugar Top (whiteout)

checks the boxes for me. cold enough (maybe marginal at onset depending on your elevation), good vort pass, good moisture 700mb and below, and of course, flow out of the northwest

"nuked" is in the eye of the beholder but this looks solid. again dependent on where exactly you're staying, but a 3-5" seems likely if not more.

I’m pretty stoked. We have a Cabin just a mile or so from beech mountain at 4500’ and northwest facing. I’ll be happy with 2-3 inches and anything extra is a bonus.

I have a feeling everything will be in full bloom very soon

This winter is pretty much an A++ in my book no matter what else happens this month.

I’m about to start my own page and start making graphics like these. I will cater to eastern snow goobers but exclude certain states to rage bait and drive clicks up. I thought I was an amateur but recently I’ve been seeing a lot of these graphics and found I’m not that bad after all

I mean even if winter comes back how are we gonna top this haha View attachment 193487

Today is day 12 with snow on the ground here. Yesterday morning still had well over an inch! The rain came around though and a high temp of 45 helped finally melt off a good bit. We Also went 10 straight days without a temp higher than 36 until Monday. Fab Feb 2015 is the only time I’ve had snow longer than this on the ground.

This is what it looks like right now.

 

[blueheronNC]

Of course with today’s precip shield there’s no dry slot to be found

 

[olhausen]

Heat goobers slowly starting to log back in. Y’all take it easy on them. Been a tough winter.View attachment 193586

Wow I hadn’t even thought about this. So I just checked my weather station and this area Has dropped below freezing every day since January 10th. Obviously 4 days are missing because of the power outage but those were some of the coldest days of this stretch. Today will be day 26 when the temp drops below 32.

This is only a probabilistic chart, and the percent chances of above normal are lower closer to the Atlantic coast than the western areas of the Southeast. It looks more like a CAD-favorable pattern than a wall-to-wall torch for the South, at least to start.

I don't expect to see snow at this time, but I wouldn't be terribly surprised to see a CAD ice event in western NC. That wedge is legit

The progged -PNA would tend to favor ice over snow since it’s hard to get a big snow with a sub -0.5 PNA.

AI sloperators can't even define state bounds. You can't event find your own backyard. I wonder how many people realistically just see these and say "real trustworthy map"

We often get big storms at the beginning or end of a pattern change. So it does make sense for us to have a chance at wintry weather, then torch right after. Wouldn’t be the first, and won’t be the last. Many a snow have I experienced, then had temps in the 60s 2-3 days later.
