yotaman Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Started out this morning at 30, we had a heavy frost too. Kind of surprising considering I went to bed around midnight and it was 41. Got up into the mid 50's today but temp is dropping fast. Currently at 34/32. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceagewhereartthou Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 I've been so focused on the mid-long range looks today really took me by surprise. I thought is was supposed to be low 60s, but I wasn't prepared for the high of 68 today! Yuck! In the meantime, my temp has risen from 44 to 50 over the past hour and a half SIGH... winter in the SE! Boy, Montana and the Dakotas have really had some fun this month - double digits below average. Maybe they'll share the love a little? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbmclean Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 RDU got a little warmer than forecast. It hit 60. That makes three straight Xmas days at 60+ and 4 out of the last 5. This is getting old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GSP up to 69 today after a 71 last year. REDICULOUS! And CAE was 75 today after a 78 last year. I joked that it felt more like Easter today than Christmas. Sorry, but 70 s at Christmas should be illegal, that's just wrong. You were lucky. Just checked and Asheville even made it to 65 today. Were you overcast? GSP was supposed to be overcast and 63 but it was clear as a bell, resulting in the torch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was mostly overcast all day so stayed a little cooler. But there is no denying it has been two straight ugly Xmases in the SE. December has beeen mostly depressing for me these last five years, since that magical 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yotaman Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Line of heavy storms have moved thru this morning, still raining. Have picked up .36" so far with lots of thunder and lightning. What's that old saying around these parts, Thunder in the winter , snow to follow in 10 days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Kabong Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 A tornado warning has been issued by NWS Peachtree City for a storm just to my west. We'll see if it holds together as it continues moving ESE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a post by Time Warner Chief Met Gary Stephenson and the chances of seeing some snow within 7-10 days after a T storm in the winter is 13% chance of happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like its time for a repost of my winter southern folklore. Top Six Southern Winter Folklore Sayings 1. If you count the morning fogs in August you will know how many August mornings were foggy. 2. A heavy crop of acorns will lead to fatter then average squirrels the next spring. 3. If it thunders in winter, 10 days later it will have happened 10 days ago. 4. If you study the bands of the wooly worm you will know how many are brown and how many are black. 5. Snow that lays on the ground for more than three days is dirty. 6. A ring around the moon means your Lasik surgeon screwed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
