I remember when I was on the old board (where a lot of southeast posters used to hang out), one of the first things I did was create an observations thread. But I tired of it as I got no replies other than me.

That board still exists, but we all dispersed to that previous board, American, and eventually, southernwx.

I think the low sun angle this time of year really helps to keep snow on the ground longer even with warm temps.

after snow here in the south the north facing sides of hills or raised areas will keep snow for many days.......

We are just chilly enough around these parts to feel uncomfortable outdoors. Hate it! Either be cold for a fireplace, or warm enough to not have to wear a jacket. :|

the cold air in northern canada yesterday is enlarging and moving south, in mid canada yesterday it was about plus10 on average today it is minus 10......the norther USA had some upper 40s and now has mostly 30s..... no matter what any model says that air is moving south now and has plenty of time to reach the SE this weekend.
