I expect lots of venting too. We are on the doorstep of the 2018 December Destroyer so most of us by this time last year were already looking at 120% of our annual avg. This year we are waiting on pattern alignment, we are well into December before fantasy snow is showing up, which means we will be well into January before any real chances surface. I can see us ending up with the slightly BN temps this winter that are being forecasted, but I can also see us being on the southern edge of the storm track all winter too. It's the curse we endure. I would holster that for now or risk living here in the sanitarium this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, your chances of snow in Durham are about the same as Florida. The good news it is an easy drive to Roxboro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceagewhereartthou Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 So nice to see some possibilities showing up on the models, even if they're total clowns. As usual, they disapper as time gets closer. I've noticed that pretty much everything fantasy modeled for the upstate (excepting the crazy GFS) is zr, not snow. Will this be a zr year? I hope not but we're probably due. Regardless, it kinda feels like this is going to be an I-40 north winter for any snow. Somehow I can see that area (and mtns of course) having a really good season with the I-85 crowd being skunked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it makes you feel any better, over here in Korea, it’s just as hard to get snow it seems. It’s always cold chasing moisture. The one snow we had lasted for like an hour in before changing over to rain. We have all the cold air in the world and good sea effect snow setups, but nothing this year has been producing. We hit 10F like a week or two ago lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After last night, SC and FL now the only two states in the continental US that has not seen snow yet. Winter is SOOO pathetic here. Nothing on the horizon for us either; this Friday system could spit a little ice North of 11 and east of Cleveland but that's nothing. My only straw to grasp at is at least we're colder than CAE. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FallsLake Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Of course I'll always wish for wintery precip over any other weather feature, but I would love to see an old fashion Siberian Express arctic airmass. We had the one a couple of years back but nothing really substantial last year. I love sunny days below freezing and seeing the lake freeze over. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merry Christmas fellow snow wiennies! may we all get our wish very soon! The disco (and storm) threads always have their own ebb and flow. Back and forth with models. Doom and gloomers mixed with eternal optimists. Occasionally new characters make an appearance, but mostly it's the same classic characters up to the same old tricks, episode after episode. These December episodes have been terrible so far, but I'm hopeful Jan/Feb will make up for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceagewhereartthou Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Well I can say it's been nice not having an all out torch for this December; generally at or just below normal, and the last few days/nights have been nice and cool. However, aside from that, it's been about the most boring December weather ever! Nothing cold for December, and not even a threat of frozen for many. What does it take to get a winter pattern and frozen precip around here??? Oh look, inches of rain incoming; oh boy how exciting... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceagewhereartthou Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Not much to to look forward to at this point, I'm punting the first half of Jan I guess, and I don't get too many punts after that or its over. GSP has only had 12 freezes so far; 12, with none showing over the next 15 days! The only difference b/w last year and this so far is there was no early Dec snow. We really need something good to happen next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
