eyewall Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 It is time to face the fact that it is going to be a long wait before many of us see snow. Probably next year after a hellish summer with extra bugs. 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably next year after a hellish summer with extra bugs. That is exactly what I am thinking. My area will be lucky to see low's in the 20's again. This is looking like it may be the first winter in some time that I don't see temps fall below 25 much less 20. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AO forecast is high and trending UP If it EVER is forecasted positive, believe it. If it's supposed to go negative, add 2 months to when the transition is forecast. Seriously we suck at cold and snow. But we're in the South. Still, we suck more than we usually suck. I see no hint of a change. Just transitive cool shots separated by warmups and rain. No blocking. No artic air. Just continental flow with and active southern stream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only blind hope has kept many on here through this hellish winter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why the Atlantic is so important It has been forever since we've had a -AO or -NAO in winter. Seems like ever since the SAI stuff came out a few years ago, it's been straight positive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franklin NCwx Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 We got a decade's worth of blocking from dec 09 until mid January 2011. It's been Mia in winter since then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Widespread snow from Birmingham to Raleigh is quite rare for any month, but the March 1983 storm fits the general narrative 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upstate Tiger Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I feel bad for the younger posters. I was born in the 60’s and I would say from about 62 to 88 winters like 09/10 were the rule not the exception. In fact I remember snow on the ground in the upstate most of January in 77,78, 79, 82, 87, 88 and 80 and 83 were epic late season. We also had at least one single digit cold outbreak each winter. The last comparable winters to that were 09/10 and 10/11 in terms of multiple events. I guess 13 and 14 had a few events also. Sure miss the parade of Miller A’s each winter. 9 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
