That farm was a really cool place to visit since I was from the city. I had a cow chase me, watched my grandfather grab a chicken by the neck and lop off it's head... then watched it run around for a minute with no head... ahhhhh, the good 'ole days!

jburns Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Here's the problem I'm having w/ the it's only January 19th argument. I think we can all agree that we are not going to see any kind of change before February 1st and that is if we see any change by then. So for arguments sake lets just say the pattern starts to change on February 1st, it's still going to take some time for the cold to work its way to the SE. Now lets say we have the a good pattern by the middle of February, that gives us a 3 to 4 week period of getting a snowstorm. It's very possible that it could work out and we get that snowstorm during that time but winter has been cut down to 3 or 4 weeks in that scenario. And as we've found out over the past 2 winters, we can have the perfect setup for snow in the SE and still not get anything. Of course I'm still going to be looking at the models and hoping for the best but time is running out on the 2011/2012 winter. I'm really trying not to be a downer here but just trying to be realistic. This is a good post. Yes I know those who live in the mountains have a much larger window of opportunity for snowfall but the fact is most of us do not live there. East of the mountains the chance of a good snow falls very rapidly once we get into March. 1960 is often mentioned to refute that but the fact you have to go back 51 years for the example speaks for itself. The superstorm of 93 roared through on a Saturday here. The storm of the century amounted to a couple of hours of snow and it was gone. Melted the next day and school was held on Monday with only a 1 hour delay to be careful of any spots that refroze overnight. So March here is possible but not likely. As for April....forget about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherheels Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 ...everything. He has no mojo. lmao. With the way winter is going i dont see how it can be any worse(80's?) Maybe we need something to shake things up, so if the mojoless starts the thread it might really mess with mother natures mind... we might end up seeing our snowiest feb. ever?

Snowless in Carrollton Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 In past years when we had multiple chances for snow but they ended up not panning out, I said to myself that I would rather live in a place like Florida that never has a chance for snow. That way,at least I would never get my hopes up and up disappointed. However, now that we've gone through nearly 2 months of winter without any potential snowstorms to track, I realize that winter would be incredibly boring living in a place that never got snow. Part of the fun is the hope and excitement of what may happen, even if we know deep down that the odds are probably stacked against us. Here's to hoping that we have at least 1 decent chance of snow this winter, even if it means we end up disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaffneyPeach Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I'm feelin' a full-tilt Southern Belle Hissy Fit coming on. If you know any, you know we can't help it. This winter sucks to the extent that I want it to be over. I'm not cliff diving as I'm way too proud for that. However, I would just love to take this hot-mess of a winter, wrap it in last year's table cloth, whack it with a corn broom a few good times and haul it's (bad word) over the cliff. I'd feel better.

It's what happens when you take a half-breed Cherokee, give her two months of bad hair days, a couple Diet Sundrops and a string of bad Euro runs. It should be against the law.

Cold Rain Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Yeah, I think without a doubt since I've been on weather forums, this is the most boring Winter I've ever had the displeasure of experiencing. I'm turning into Brick, I think. The 0Z GFS from last night looked awesome in the longer ranges. It was very nice. But we can't hold that look into the medium range.
