Back in the day. A year ago. When it used to snow so much you’d lose a paper towel roll if you weren’t careful. The good ol’ days ?

Man our winters suck now

You sure that's not a toilet paper roll, j/k.

I didnt realize smallish icing events were worthy of being under a Winter Storm Warning.

I mean granted all ATL typically gets are smallish events less frequently than Dallas. We do avoid extreme warmth during the winter thanks to CAD, however.

One of the NICEST 69 hour model frames we've seen in a hot minute.

Raleigh got screwed so bad with that storm. It was another of those deals where it was March, mostly above freezing, and warm BL temps, and areas without heavy, consistent snowfall rates had trouble getting significant accumulations. Rates were insane down towards Sanford, though, and they had some big accumulations. EyeWall had a good YouTube video from that storm.




EDIT: Just realized I got ninja’d on this video earlier in the thread, oops! Good video, though!

Ground temps weren't a problem? ?

If temperatures are around 20 like that one, ground temps won’t matter. Unfortunately, a lot of March flakes come with temperatures around freezing which isn’t ideal. Gotta have heavy rates to make that work (which can happen, obviously). A lot of times this results in splotchy accumulation maps depending on where the best banding sets up, like March 2010.

If it snows in March you better hope and pray it's snowing really hard if the temps are marginal. Especially if its during the day.

It doesn’t snow in December, January, February, or March.

SoMe flooded with images of the epic snowstorm in the northeast. 0.4 inches.

Averages start going up quickly starting today. 3 months from now it’s pool weather across the SE. 2 months from now it’s 70F highs, way more daylight over the next few weeks. Before you know it the SE is gonna be hot again. The best time of the year where torches start to torch !!

 

[Nerman]

Remember when snow/sleet/ice in Texas meant we'd get it in the SE?
