We're the definition of insanity. I remember the fun we had "chasing" winter storms from the winters of 2008-2009, 2009-2010, and 2010-2011, respectively.
Those were some good times.

The joy that is present here during a great winter storm will keep you here through all the heartbreak. I encourage you to stick around till that happens, it’s well worth the wait.
That Concord snow hole tho...??
So glad I’m choosing a future to live in Kansas... lol
Perfect for a severe lover
Yep and many areas average double digit snowfall in Kansas, weather is much more interesting around there

We have very different definitions of "everyone"....if by "everyone" you mean 10% of the posters here then you nailed it......

After Christmas it gets mild and stays mild per the GFS. Not even a fantasy storm to hang your hat on.
This talk of a favorable pattern to end the month doesn’t seem to be the case unless mild and rainy is favorable.

At least we have the desirable cold Christmas and just after that most prefer. Going to enjoy that period a lot. And a N to BN month of December overall is a real treat! it will very likely end up as the coldest Dec here since way back in 2010. This month is a big win. I'll take two more like it if we can somehow manage it. If we can get just one of the remaining two like it, that would still be sweet as 2 out of 3 ain't bad, especially with a very warm W Pac and Arctic as well as a solid La Nina.
Edit: We can thank the strongest Dec -AO since 2012 for its help with this gift.

Part of tracking snow while living in the southeast. Most times it’s a fail but the times it works out make it all worthwhile. I know I see snow more often then most on here but still love every single time snow is falling weather it sticks or not.

Been around since the early Wright weather days back in 2000. You get use to it.
In the SE you Never ever get excited until you see it falling in your back yard.

Given that we’re all over in the other thread trashing the GFS, why should this bother us? We don’t believe anything it says anyway.
Foggy as hell this morning
Day 10 looks very intriguing. The 0z GFS had a storm running up through central Tennessee and a departing high out-to-sea; which equated to a warm scenario. The euro and especially the Canadian had a more suppressed look with the storm along with a better placement of the high (colder/CAD setup). The 6z GFS continued to show the low attempting to move up through central Tennessee, but now had a much better placement for a high. Bottom line, this is a time period to keep an eye on.
This is the day 10 Canadian; which is the best setup (..cherry picking). But it would show a well established CAD with dew points in the teens all the way into east Ga. This setup gives us winter storms.

Winter Storm Warning for 1 county out of Blacksburg today. They don’t even belong with Wilkes area imo.
Literally just flip flop the ridge in the NE with the trough over the GL, and I bet you’d have a storm.
