You want 35 and rain 3 times in the next 2 weeks? That's misery. 

No. I want snow. But I’m not rooting for 80s if I don’t get it 

I can’t stand the bring on spring crowd. We live in the south. 9 months out of the year are hot. Let us enjoy whatever cold we can until that arrives. 80 in early February didn’t make me happy today

Your daffodils exceed my snowfall over the last 3 years combined 

The MA forum is such a happy place right now

I know there was a WRAL piece on why RDU is sometimes warmer, but I still wonder if the runway construction has at least a minor impact. Since the new runway is going to go right where the station is, anyone know where it's going to be moved?

Looking at a recent sat photo (Feb 1) is it still in it's original location?

 

I don’t know, but once again it is SIGNIFICANTLY warmer than all surrounding sites. Still a record warm day but 80 seems excessive 

First 80’s of the year at RDU! Ground temp issues!!! 

First 80’s of the year at RDU

Mid Atlantic looks to be in an amazing spot with this one

@BornAgain13 You’re going to be fighting an uphill battle with most posters on here but given your location you definitely are in the game. There will always be a ton of IMBY takes but there certainly is a stronger than normal signal your way. South of 85 is not in the game and even triad areas are on the fringe at best with this (at this juncture)

Holy schnikes DC gets buried this run

EURO is how I expect this to go. Step 1: find cold air transport. No model has realistically gotten cold air into NC yet. These fronts spilling south mid storm do not work without substantial blocking and if anything the cold air bleeds in at the ground and CAD areas see ice. Just not a southern snow setup, sorry

Not sure what the record high for RDU is today but we’re at 76.3

77.5 was the high. Unreal

One should root for overrunning. Anything amped is gonna want to cut. Still don’t see the cold push working out south of Virginia for snow. There is time but cold bleeding east of mountains like this is tough to work for this forum

Virginia-north yea I see reason to be a little excited. Otherwise this looks like CAD slop pattern with cold rain elsewhere. Mid Atlantic to New England might get repeated big dogs. Might be a special February in those areas. 

None of this is real until Brick says it’s real. Have you lot learned nothing???

If you don’t love cold miserable rain, look away 

At least it looks like we’ll get plenty of rain to put a dent in the worsening drought

This seems like New England will likely make up serious ground on their snowfall droughts. Call me skeptical about anything other than a mix bag for CAD areas

That’s crazy. Look at Arctic sea ice. It’s going to blow the record low away, and it’s not going to be remotely close. I know there’s more to ice than just cold, but seeing record Arctic cold corresponding with a loss of sea ice is wild

2024

https://www.weather.gov/wrh/Climate?wfo=rah

2024 was wall to wall warmth every month finished above average at RDU. January 2025 bucked that trend

That my 1.9” of snow on the season feels like a win is how bad it’s been. Not even halfway to climo…

Winter ends Feb 1 now. I don’t care that historically February is our snowiest month, getting snow in February is as likely as getting snow in November now
