Lol, just last week I had freezing rain, couple years ago 2 ice storms year before big snowstorm. I'm doing pretty good where I'm at. But yeah my area is hard to come by with winter storms sometimes, but then I'll chase as well

I hope I am posting this in the right discussion. I don't usually post. I just sit back and read and try to learn. I was just wondering what's the year on record for the hottest day in January and what was that temperature. I sort of thought maybe these 70's had set a new record for January.
WilkesboroDudeI found the below pretty cool...thought I would copy and paste FYI.
"The radius of ice accumulation on items such as limbs and power lines is typically about 20% to 40% of the total amount of rain that falls during an ice storm, according to a recent Weather and Forecasting paper by meteorologists Kristopher Sanders and Brian Barjenbruch (NWS/Topeka, KS)."
That is lower than I thought. I had thought it tended to be near 50%.

Euro goes wild at day 10. Lol at the bomb it develops.

It all depends on what that high in the Hudson bay does. The Euro builds it large and strong enough that it steers the strong system that both the GFS and the Euro have south. However, the GFS has the high weaker, sending the low still strong up into the Midwest and bombing out there. The GFS-Para and its Ensembles support the Op's path, and the EPS takes a middle ground. The high would, per modeled, make the difference between snowstorm or severe weather outbreak. I would love to see a storm that soon, but the chances of a severe outbreak before a storm are more likely.

Agree I think the euro is way too amplified and SoutheastForsythSnow said:SD said:Yeah me thinks that might be a little on the strong side but I'd love to see it happenForsythSnow said:Euro goes wild at day 10. Lol at the bomb it develops.

Just that weather on planet earth is volatile, wild swings of temperature likey occur and the southeastern United states isn't always an ideal location for winter weather lol.
This might be the best answer everRoswellian said:
