I just bit the bullet. Our place is 3,770 feet in elevation, so if I fail this weekend then I will suspend myself from chasing. Will be my first trip to Maggie Valley.

Plenty of elevation nearby if it happens to go south. I hope we can trend a little wetter/colder this week. Good luck???

“Everybody knows a storm can’t possibly cut with a big sprawling 1048 high in the northeast lol.”
Haw Haw Hardy Har Har.
Weenies: “An above normal Winter might be in jeopardy ?”
00z GFS:

yeah, winter be over if that arctic lobe in Central/NE Canada can't produce for us. Hopefully warm this far out is as silly as cold. Hopefully the -nao pans out, and that one red line for a monster -AO is the reality:
GFS MIGHT throw us a bone Feb 5-7 but we had better make it happen bc that’s likely the bulk of the board’s last/only hoorah
GFS had 4 southern snowstorms at 12z..
we have now dwindled down to this in 12 hours ???

Hard to budge that PV, But easy to build that HEAT PUMP! #smh
I'm just glad NO one on here believed the 12zGFS had 4 southern snowstorms at 12z..

I bet some on other boards really fell for it! ???
PV lobe in and out of the eastern US in less than 36 hours..we’ll have to catch it on its next rotation out of Alaska in mid April ?
How in deeee f*cckkk is it to so easy to get warmth yet so hard to get things our way and cold our way
Eh Dumb question, remember BAMwx said the strat PV being strong means winter is over I should know that even with many other factors
Scientific Explation, and I quote:
“It really do be like that sometimes.”
-unknown
That really is a good question! I mean you would think once in a while we could fall into a good pattern?! I know we live in the SE (hate hearing that 500 million times every winter) It has snowed here and Snowed a lot at times, It CAN HAPPEN!!!!
They said today (again) any cold shot would be in and out quickly, then back to warm weather.
Welp, the 00z GFS certainly supports that idea

Never trust 1 to 2 week plus fantasy storms it never verifies.. Just throw in the towel already no point of staying up losing sleep chasing a ghost only to continue( like all winter long folks) to be let down
I'm bout sick of looking at models and wishing for some cold and snow! I'm just about ready to thrown the towel in again. I usually don't do that twice in one winter, but this one is turning out to be really special!?

is it spring yet
might as well be
might as well be
If only Chattanooga was at 4500ft above sea level and Kentucky was a great lake. Let's all admit, we could lose Kentucky to a vast body of water in the name of decent southern winters, not that big of a loss...
Hang on to your hard hat ?is it spring yet
might as well be
it's just around the corner, and the heat will be on like Donkey Kong ?

Thought this was interesting. For Raleigh it looks like almost 50% of the time it will see 3”+ of snow after being skunked up to this point of the winter. But, almost the same odds we see less than an 1” rest of the way.
Even more interesting is 7 years 10+ at RDU, only 2 for GSO and if you go to the 5+ it's 11 yrs for RDU compared to 6 GSO. Coastals, as we near the end of Winter, can wipe out any deficit real quick.
Looks like about 134 years in there data set and we’ve seen 14 years with less than an 1”. So about 1 in 10. We were due for this. After looking at the 0z EPS VP forecast for first half of Feb I’m ready to throw in towel.

It’s crazy how the models just keep trolling us year after year.

I live in Eastern NC on the coast and the warm nose is my mortal enemy.

You can see the I-85 special building in here on the Euro for the 6th/7th. It's probably either this time period or bust for my area.
Should I even say this ? JB is on board for a snowstorm from Western Carolinas to the NE this weekend. There that wasn't so bad!
Give it a day it will be gone..

Not enthusiastic about the 6z GFS making that drastic a jump, but I'll see what the euro says at 12z to decide if I'll continue to track that period semi seriously continue being dragged along.
