I'd give it until mid month or end of the month for the few who may still hold on hope. We'll call it the Sauna Support for the immense heat we'll likely be dreading in a few months.So, since it's March should we have a spring support thread now?
Also, I am really tired of the rain.
I’ll take questions people ask who live in the southeast for 200$ Alex!What is snow?

Personally, I don't see any issue with posting it here. The problem comes when people start debating and arguing about the extent to which we are causing the issue. Hopefully, we can avoid that in this thread. In any event, I think the article has merit. And it is sad.Was going to post this in global warming thread but don’t see it. But probably fits here also as we are not the only ones frustrated.

This article was posted in the Reminiscing thread a few weeks back. It has a specific focus on the upper Midwest. The thing is, areas like Minneapolis had above normal snowfall just last season. The upper Midwest typically doesn’t do as well with cold and snow in El Niños like this season, and the author mentions that at the beginning of the article. It mentions how warm the temperatures were on Christmas 2023. The high in Minneapolis was only 8 degrees on Christmas Day in 2022. The highest temperature in Minneapolis in all of January 2023 was 37 degrees.Was going to post this in global warming thread but don’t see it.

Really? You don't understand how mountain regions can have a lot of snow while also being much warmer than normal?I want to know how is that possible out west where they have been real cold with hundreds of inches of snow and top five warmest?![]()

I don’t remember a trace of snow last winter, either?From RAH on Facebook.
This was a disappointing winter across the Triangle if you like snow. It was the first meteorological winter (which runs from December through February) since records began in 1887 that Raleigh-Durham Airport had zero snow, not even a trace. There have been 12 other winters with no measurable snow, but they still had a trace. In addition, this was Raleigh's 5th-warmest winter since records began in 1887.
Neither do I. I know it's been three straight winters without measurable snow.I don’t remember a trace of snow last winter, either?
No it’s the last two winters for Raleigh… I think there was officially 4.5” in 2021-22.Neither do I. I know it's been three straight winters without measurable snow.

HypeWell, 5 out of 6.
The time of the year it’s showing is how we’re screwing it up. I’m sure we’re gonna end up with a really good H5 pattern that will give us some nice cold rains and clear days with highs in the low 50s

Chat GPT says we are still looking good for snow! ?
If it's now early March and Durham, NC, still hasn't seen any snow, several points can explain this scenario and what might happen next:
1. **End of Peak Snow Season**: By early March, the peak season for snowfall is winding down in many parts of the Southeast, including North Carolina. While it's not impossible for snow to occur in March, the chances typically diminish as the month progresses and temperatures start to rise [oai_citation:1,60-Day Extended Weather Forecast for Durham, NC | Almanac.com](https://www.almanac.com/weather/longrange/NC/Durham).
2. **Impact of Weather Patterns**: The presence of a strong El Niño pattern increases the likelihood of snow during the winter months. However, if snow hasn't materialized by early March, it might indicate that other climatic factors have overridden the typical impacts of El Niño, such as unexpected shifts in jet streams or warmer than anticipated temperatures [oai_citation:2,2023-24 NC snow outlook: A colder winter and good news for snow lovers](https://www.wral.com/story/how-much-snow-NC-2023-24/21128901/).
3. **Historical Variability**: Historical weather data shows variability in snowfall patterns, with some years seeing little to no snow. The absence of snow by early March would not be unprecedented, and it underscores the variability inherent in regional weather patterns.
4. **Shift Towards Spring**: As March progresses, the focus of weather patterns begins to shift towards spring. The likelihood of warming temperatures reduces the chances of new snowfall events, although late cold snaps can still occur.
5. **Looking Ahead**: Without snow by early March, it might be time to start looking ahead to spring weather patterns and preparing for the transition out of winter. This includes planning for spring gardening, outdoor activities, and home maintenance tasks that are best performed in warmer weather.
In summary, the lack of snowfall in Durham, NC, by early March suggests that this winter might conclude with less snow than anticipated, despite forecasts suggesting otherwise due to El Niño. While disappointing for snow enthusiasts, it's a reminder of the unpredictability of weather and the need to adapt to whatever conditions prevail.
