SEwakenosnowforu Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I lived in Wilson from 2000 until 2014 and I have to tell you...that was an amazing stretch. 6 plus inches from one storm was the norm. It just wanted to snow. we had at least six 8 to 12 inch snows. That is why what is happening now is so sad. I give this winter a D even for southern wake co. What heppend to the snows of old??? That period spoiled me! I95 was hot! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azaleas are still largely not out yet. That compares to some recent ones when they were out in early Feb! Also, I saw no early bugs. They’ve started coming out only over the last week or so: sand gnats, mosquitoes, wasps, etc. My favorite thing about winter is the lack of bugs to bug me. The pine pollen has been out for 1-2 weeks but that’s normal timing. I’m already looking forward to next winter just like I do for every winter, my favorite season! So ironically though, the Bermuda grass is coming out of dormancy quicker than normal. Strange. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it’s the infamous Happy Hour run, when the GFS has an excuse to get drunk and be happy! Enjoy tonight’s 0Z runs. They’ll be an hour later starting tomorrow for almost the next 8 months.

GaWx Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Much of tomorrow afternoon here is forecasted to be 10-15 BN due to chilly flow behind a cold front in combo with clouds and widespread rain due to a surface low forming along the Gulf coast and moving ENE to near or just south of this area. Rainfall of 2-3” will be quite possible over the next 48 hours, which would be very beneficial due to the winter having BN rainfall. The last significant rainfall event was actually with the big winter storm 1/21-2. If KSAV gets 1.34”+, it would become the wettest event since Nov 7th.

Sunday was, indeed, an off and on soaking rainy day and evening with very chilly NE winds. Temps were only in the upper 40s to low 50s much of the daytime! We even had some rumbling thunder for a few minutes. All very beneficial for the relatively dry soil but not beneficial for going for a walk. Rain has been near continuous the last few hours and should continue through much of the night. There looks to be a break after dawn, but another (final) batch of showers is progged for later in the day into the evening due to the upper level low.

Upstate Tiger Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 GFS with a 973MB bomb over the Midwest this weekend. That'll create some wind and some weather headlines. Edmond Fitzgerald storm was a 978. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Looking to the skies Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Chilly day here is S Georgia ( Hazlehurst ). It has been a while since I posted. Hurricane Helene did tremendous damage in our area and my 2 acres was not spared. I lost over 23 trees , had my well house and well damaged .i was without power for 3 1/2 weeks, water 7 weeks. Looking at the weekend system will it have all the fuel and ingredients or will we be spared in the mid south and S again? Looks more likely to give us trouble ( not me so much) 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Tonight’s walk resembled a midwinter version with 47-48 and a stiff breeze making it feel like 30s. It felt great! The upper low has given us very little rain this evening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Low responsible for the stiff breeze and chilly night is absolutely wound up this morning off the NC coast. https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/sat/satlooper.php?region=nwatl&product=vis_swir 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsaur Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 The haze detracted from the clarity of the blood moon right up until about 20 minutes before totality, then the clouds fully obscured. How do clouds know right when to thicken, and ruin the whole show?? Kind of like snatching defeat from a "heavy snow" warning, lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen a blood moon on a super clear night and it doesn't get old. At least they aren't as rare as a total solar. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Lows are forecasted to get down into the low 40s way down in Hogtown the next two nights as well as at least one more night late week. Edit: They made it down to 39! @pcbjr 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
