WeatherNC Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I'm all for chasing a good snowstorm, but 2' or more may be a bit too much. I can't afford to be stranded for a week. You have to work your way up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 i was just thinking, seems like forever since we have had a hp trend in our favor as an event neared, which brings me a little pause with this system, but who knows, maybe we are due. trends have been good so far. All the modeling and ensembles aren't far off. No crazy strong HP from what I can see... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.C. Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 I hate when Charlotte gets snow and CAE doesn't. Ridiculous. It is what it is. Columbia is always 5-10 degrees warmer than the I-85 corridor from Atlanta to Charlotte due to elevation and directly downwind from the highest mountains. I'm honestly surprised it ever snows here. This is the hottest place outside of the western deserts in the United States easily. Also, the averages around here have been skewed with CAE always reporting 5 degrees warmer than every weather underground station within a 20 miles radius, yet nobody ever seems to question this. So the models have taken this into account, when you look at an isotherm for the area, there is always a circle of warmth around Columbia. I live about 15 miles from the airport and I am always 5 degrees cooler, just as every station that surrounds the airport is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have envisioned the Panthers winning the Super Bowl and some media members and others saying they are still not sold on Carolina yet and they have major flaws. Imagine if New England was 15-1 and undefeated most of the year. There wouldn't be time for anything else on ESPN. Crazy bias. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowless in Carrollton Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Right now I've got my eye on Elkin, Wilkesboro, and West Jefferson as possible snow chase locations. I like the fact that Elkin is right on the interstate so that may be my top choice right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
