I can see last year, but 2001-2002 everyone got screwed, so it wasn't a "snow donught" around C VA. I bet your luck will change this year if there is another major event for the mid-Atlantic.

Challenging Pattern....

DT, Let me add here in LYH, while we did manage 33 inches of snow last winter..it was nickles and dimes, no dollars. The last 12+ snow here was 1996 while RDU has seen 2 since. That has NEVER happened.

That isnt completely accurate...NC did fairly well in 01-02. There was a good snowstorm just after new years which dumped 4-12" across much of the state.

Ah yeah, and that damn storm dry slotted me after the heavy sleet and snow that fell for several hours, and the 850mb temperatures warmed just enough to give this area an icestorm ... (worse back inland, here, about a ¼" of ice accretions, after 1-2" of very heavy sleet/snow.

So, under this scenario would Winston-Salem and Roanoke be in the jackpot for snow?

You got NOTHING in JAN 2000? Holy crap, I got 2" of snow/sleet/slush that night that RAH got 16.3" in 4 HOURS ... and 21". A little s/w produced a localized 1"-3" snowfall the next night in Charleston, Dorchester, and Berkeley Counties ... first time ever for Charleston to have back to back measurable snows from 2 different systems. I picked up 3" of snow in just a few hours.
