wncsnow Posted August 22, 2024 Share Posted August 22, 2024 Interesting rain map for the past 7 weeks. The 7 inch total is close to MBY. Western piedmont areas really racked up and some in SWNC really struggled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wncsnow Posted August 26, 2024 Share Posted August 26, 2024 Imagine this map in January.. lots of heavy snow for WNC I bet. It barely gets to 50 as a high that day. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upstate Tiger Posted September 12, 2024 Share Posted September 12, 2024 Today's ENSO update from IRI: The CPC ENSO Outlook predicts a clear preference for La Niña onset in Sep-Nov (66% chances) with continuation until Jan-Mar, 2025 (57% chances), and then a return to ENSO-neutral state during boreal spring of 2025. In contrast, the objective IRI ENSO forecasts show late, weak and temporary La Niña conditions in Oct-Dec, and Nov-Jan. The forecasts then show a return to ENSO-neutral conditions that remain dominant during the boreal winter and spring of 2025. https://iri.columbia.edu/our-expertise/climate/forecasts/enso/current/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kvegas-wx Posted October 9, 2024 Share Posted October 9, 2024 Its coming no matter what guys. We can't stop it. And just because there is misfortune elsewhere, that doesn't mean our lives stop. We can enjoy it. We SHOULD enjoy it. But we can also continue to provide aid and support for others. Both can happen at the same time. Survivors guilt is creeping in a bit here because it hits so close to home. If Helene never happened but Milton wrecks Florida tomorrow, I can promise you we would still be right here rooting for snow. It's ok to seek normalcy, even when others close by are affected. Let me be the first to say it....I am GLAD this summer is over. I have been to so many scorching hot jobsites this year I'm DONE! Happy to see the first hints of a cooler trend coming. All of that said, I will find myself right back in Florida next week handling storm recovery efforts. These people are truly suffering! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The search and rescue there must be overwhelming. Are you getting aid sent in? Some of the more frequented areas are declining aid and asking it to be sent to a central dispatch location because they can't manage the volume. So I hope your areas are seeing similar support. If not, please ask for help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
