Raysweather said Wilkes got 0” officially last winter. But I had a few events near 1”.
Atlanta is bigger and farther south. I got down to 34.Pretty pitiful that Atlanta couldn't manage to get below 37 the last 2 mornings. I guess the heat island only applies to Atlanta and not Nashville, Charlotte, or Raleigh.
We got down to 34 at my houseAtlanta is bigger and farther south. I got down to 34.
Well for one RDU airport isn't in as much of a UHI spot as Atlantas airport, I think Nashville's station, however, has just as much UHI as Atlanta. Charlottes airport is next to a river, don't know how that plays in.Pretty pitiful that Atlanta couldn't manage to get below 37 the last 2 mornings.

I don't know much about Atlanta's layout, but a lot of Charlotte at least on the north side of town is not very urbanized, like a lot of my part of Charlotte looks more like a small town than a neighborhood in a large city.Well for one RDU airport isn't in as much of a UHI spot as Atlantas airport, I think Nashville's station, however, has just as much UHI as Atlanta.

I'm not sure if being further south has much to do with it, since LaGrange was 31 this morning which is way south of you.Atlanta is bigger and farther south. I got down to 34.
Atlanta has the heat island effect working for it . Lot asphalt in the big cities ... tend hold little more heatI'm not sure if being further south has much to do with it, since LaGrange was 31 this morning which is way south of you.
There are other factors in play on clear cold nights. I've only managed 32 last night which is the coldest this year. I'm not really in a UHI. Parts of Columbia SC got colder than me last night as is the case most of the time with these setups. But I'd much rather be here than Columbia or LaGrange when a winterstorm comes. They can have their clear cold radiational cooling, I'll take my sleet!I'm not sure if being further south has much to do with it, since LaGrange was 31 this morning which is way south of you.
Severe weather?Interesting trend around AK View attachment 52609
Meh, it's just a mountain clipper. If it makes it into the lower elevations, I'll archive it.GEFS has actually been hinting at some mountain snow next weekend, nice to see an op run agree

I couldn't belive how warm we were in Bham this morning compared to surrounding areasPretty pitiful that Atlanta couldn't manage to get below 37 the last 2 mornings. I guess the heat island only applies to Atlanta and not Nashville, Charlotte, or Raleigh.
Ole Santa maybe wearing shorts. This Christmas ... lolI couldn't belive how warm we were in Bham this morning compared to surrounding areas
Crazy how even a small city like Birmingham can have such a huge heat island. Is the area Birmingham's airport is in even very urban ? I was thinking it was pretty forested and relatively rural over there.I couldn't belive how warm we were in Bham this morning compared to surrounding areas
Its hit & miss around the airport as far as residential .To the north you have of it there are decent sized neighborhoods once you go Northeast alot has been torn down. Downtown Birmingham isn't far from the airport so that plays a major partCrazy how even a small city like Birmingham can have such a huge heat island.
