This is definitely different. I actually think we are a shoe in for an arctic outbreak. The GFS has had this outbreak for several days now inside 10 days. We are about 6 to 7 days out now.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not like this. Canada has not been this cold all winter and probably not since 2014. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, as I remember it Dec. 18 was a QPF bomb with marginal temps. Yeah, obvious "lucy pulling the football" kinda caveats apply, but for now i'll sit back and admire. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BooneWX Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Sorry yall. My multiple winter storm warnings this year with only wet grass to show for it, is starting to make me lose my mind. I don’t mean to sound so pessimistic. Not used to taking so many L’s in western NC. Give me a few days and I’ll be back on the wagon! 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol you kind of got piled on there but of course there has been frustration and probably will continue to be. But this is probably the best scenario we have seen all winter. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep-that’s the benchmark for anyone under 60 living in the upstate area. 14” of snow. I was in high school at the time, and we were out of school for over a week... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Oh yeah that look at the end of the Euro run would rival Jan 88 in terms of a cold snow.. NC in the teens and single digits ahead of the storm. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griteater Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Cold shot behind a Lakes cutter, followed by a developing -NAO (which has been in the cards for a while now). That's a good start. Just have to see how the pattern evolves from here and whether we can find a storm. The models aren't going to have the details locked in from long range, obviously. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left the house early this morning and saw some good snow around NC/VA line. Would love to watch it at home, but sometimes weather nuts have to follow the storm!

KChuck Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 3 minutes ago, BullCityWx said: February 79 or March 80 too I remember that March 80. Wrangler just moved me down from Pennsylvania. Got two snowstorms. No longer remember which order but seems one was 8" and the other 14" in the Sandhills of NC. Got more snow in NC that year than I would have had i stayed in Pa. Still had my snow legs driving and went in to check plant out full of myself. Drove into the parking lot wide open in my Datsun B210 hatchback. Bad move! Car flew up snow bank lifting wheels off of the ground. Had to shovel out under the car to get the wheels back down so I could drive out. Loved that snow! That was also when I learned what I was told about Carolina drivers was correct (at that time anyway). First sign of snow they'll park their cars wherever they were at the moment rather than drive! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wow Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 It's been great seeing the Atlantic come back to a sustained seasonal -NAO after several years but then losing the Pacific to lock out the arctic air is just downright insulting. The last hope here something like this where the PNA ridge finally breaks through... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
