Actually that would be sleet for MBY. Verbatim, the run we saw of the Euro has Feb 15 or Dec 18 written all over it; all slept and zr here, snow bury for NC.

Tarheel17 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 I forgot how much I missed having something worthwhile to track. I'll give it 48 hours before it goes *poof* and we get another warm rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The biggest snow I've ever seen in my backyard is 5.75 inches, 2nd biggest is 4 inches. That's over a 30 year period. Please feel free to name another city in the Southeast outside of Florida who hasn't gotten a bigger storm than that over the past 30 years.

mackerel_sky Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 CJ has like 3 posts on FB hyping this stuff at 5-7 days out, but can’t even call for snow when the event is a slam dunk and 12 hours away?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's honestly amazing to me given the relative close proximity between us. Even the lower elevations here, down at the river near the SC border, have had at least 2 near 12 inch storms and a lot of 4 inch+ just since 2010. That Lee side screw zone running through GA/SC/NC is just a terrible thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLweather Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 This front looks pathetic atm. A shadow of its former self. Rooting for my SE crew to get a snowstorm. FL could use some rain. Dry around my area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big difference just between you and me in Easley. I don't do as well as many, but got 5.5 in 2016 and 8 from 2011. Still have a lot more mixing than TR, Greer, etc. Grew up in Dacusville and that was generally a good spot. 16 from 88, at least 12 from 87, around 10 from 93, 6 from 96. My parents there got 9 in 2016. Amazing how much 10 or 20 miles makes. I was in Taylor's for March 93 but never got more than 4.5 due to ground temps being stuck at 34. Western upstate completely missed on others like Jan 2000 and Feb 04. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeyefan1 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 When a storm is within 3 days, then start a storm thread. If there's agreement with most models, then maybe 5 days. Next time a weenie tag will be issued 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthHillsWx Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I know there are years where RDU got blanked, but has there been an entire winter season where no measurable snow was recorded in the entire forecast area? Furthermore, has there even been a season where the Raleigh NWS didn't issue a single winter weather product throughout? We may be in rare territory here 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is almost impossible to get a win in this pattern. The 2/8 event was a lottery win for those who lucked out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeyefan1 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 What the flying he*l people!? How hard is it to keep the one liners and whining in the banter threads?! We have 2 banter threads just for this reason. I know this winter has sucked. I’ve lived through a lot of winters that suck and I bi*ch about it in the banter thread. It’s not rocket science. I really don’t like having to call people out. Especially those that have been here long enough to know better. Come on everyone. Just do the right thing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacoma Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 don't quite understand, we get probably the best look of the year with cold air in place but getting the moisture, storm to meet up with the cold doesn't look good right now. Was hoping this wood verify, man the rain storms always, usually verify and we can't get one snowstorm to verify. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
