[HKY1994]

one of the worst winters in the last decade so far this year

I cant freaking wait to argue about rates overcoming sun angle.

Nothing trumps ground temps.

Idk guys, the NBM has a 3% chance of a trace of freezing drizzle imby Saturday night. I think this is going to be the one!

amazing how 2022 was a great winter, top 3 winter for me. 3 weekend accumulating snows in a row then This winter can’t even get a decent snow shower

People are already canceling next winter ???

And come April, I'm sure there will be a cold snap with no moisture that ruins everyone's new gardens.

Sure, why not? Already 65 degrees here today. Balmy.

I mean i'm ok with a little freezing rain, but i dont want a crippling ice storm. I do however, always wish for a crippling snow storm ?

I’m good with all winter weather as long as the power stays on. The rolling blackouts around Christmas when it was 8 degrees outside at noon was a very unsettling feeling. Luckily it never stayed off for more then 30 minutes.

And yet people want that kind of cold back. Duke Energy almost lost their entire system that Saturday. Many had their power off for 12 hours or more. We are on one of the smaller companies and did not have the rolling blackouts, but it may be different the next time.

This year has just been a huge dud. Not really exceptionally warm, just very boring, no real threats.

I am hopeful Nino next year at least improves Eastern cold. But I know it's not going to be great.

We need a neutral ENSO state for December 2023 and January 2024. That would be our best bet, I think.

11-12 all over again. Maybe not for the whole country but for the SE it's going to be the same result. Maybe worse. At least northern NC got something that year.

I have not received more than a heavy dusting since 12/8/17, that is quiet a drought for Birmingham.

But y’all get severe weather tho. Spring looks active for you guys.

Yeah, we are the sierra nevada or Jackson Hole wyoming when it comes to the amount of severe weather we get compared to their snow.

 

[SASQUATCH]

I don't know why I keep looking at models waiting on a surprise. I mean, it's like peeing into the fan and not expecting to get wet.

[Brick Tamland]

I am so tired of all the rain. If it isn't going to snow it could at least be dry. And it doesn't look like it's going to snow at all this winter. Don't tell me we have until March because I don't remember the last time my area had a good snowstorm in March.

You are welcomed to every bit of the severe weather we get. Any is too much for me.
