It was mostly rain from GSP to Charlotte on to Raleigh. Areas in SC north of I-85 did get a decent snow on the back end, but only around 2 fell where I am.

We're already down one subscription (see Packbacker), so we don't need to lose anymore heading into our big snow period! You did the right thing hanging on for another month. since all of our storm threads fail I'm going to start a rain thread so it will stay dry.

Snowless in Carrollton Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 How can the March 93 storm be a one in a lifetime storm when 20 years earlier there was an even more impressive storm that dumped 2 feet in areas even further south ?

Yeah that area got hit hard too as did much of Alabama. The storm turned the corner too quickly though for much of SC and NC. Also we really did not have any really cold air until after the storm was over. I think if this storm had been 2 months earlier, more of the Carolinas may have at least had ice from it.

LOL, I don't need the models to tell me it's not going to snow, same reason I don't need an apple to fall on my head, it's as certain as gravity. How's the clipper look for Monday? Let me guess...there is a great looking day 10+ event, no blocking, west coast ridging, east coast trough. This one will be different though, since it's Feb we don't need blocking it won't trend NW/warmer. It's so nice having to go back and ask questions on how models look, I feel like Brick.
