Wintry Winter 2017-18 discussion

I know it's just faulty statistical logic, but we're really overdue for a colder than normal Dec around here... I can also see something like this past Sept, where the overall month averages close to normal, but one half the month is way above and the other half way below, wild swings that is... who knows.
 
Well, I saw the first woolly worm, of the year, and it says pack it up! Mild winter here. They have an 80% accuracy supposedly, so let's hope it was just a mistake one or that we get the 20%!

Aol.weather winter forecast has a weak La Nina in store for there season. Says the "Southeast" will see possible little above avg temps with very wet possible, with 2 or 3 dangerous ICE Storms potentials.

Spent 7 &1/2 years up there - different kind of winter. Totally. You'd better like cold, and if N of IndianaNoplace, you'd better really love snow with a perpetual passion ... like eternal ... ;)

btw - you'd better love cornfields!

She lives east of Indy near the OH border. Im sure winters are not THAT bad there. I can see it being a lot worse around South Bend. This will be her first winter there as she has lived in GA her entire life.
 
Almost that time of the year yet again for modeled and historical snow map fantasies (lol) & I'm hoping to get at least some bits and pieces of a preliminary version of my winter storm archive for NC released within the next several months.
Pretty neat to see for example that the 1979 Presidents' Day snowstorm during the cool biased neutral winter of 1978-79 was not alone in central NC.

In addition to individual storms, I'll also be adding seasonal maps, as well as additional climatological maps...

Strong El Nino winter of 1896-97 for example... Available station data was used as is after initial QC, data in between stations was interpolated based on all the maps for this winter and estimated to the nearest 0.5", however this should provide a reasonable, relatively high resolution, first-guess approximation of seasonal snowfall at each location in NC. Randolph, Johnston, and Nash counties were the big winners...

One day 20 years from now we will be like, wonder if we are going to have a freeze this year, won’t even be snow. We will just be hoping to see a night below 32 degrees. :)
