Wow! The amount of views this video has gotten is insane! Thank you guys for watching the video. Since there’s many new viewers I want to make sure all of you guys understand that my channel is mostly model breakdowns, this is my interpretation of what I saw on the models and not necessarily my forecast. While the models did show a historic blizzard we do often times see these storms move around or change in intensity as I mention throughout the video. We are far more confident in the severe cold temperatures which have a really good chance of being some of the coldest we’ve seen in a long time.
Been watching you since last winter. As someone that has a job that is weather dependent, I've always found your videos very informative and use them to assist me in my decision making. Very happy to see you getting some awesome exposure and breaking the top 10 trending on TH-cam! Congrats!
This made me check my local long range Forcast for my area from one of our newstations, and sure enough, starting on the 6th, things start to bottom out. Freezing rain on the morning of the 7th. Right now, it only goes to the 8th, but temps for the 7th and 8th are highs around freezing and lows in the middle teens. Now, ahead of that, starting on the 1st through the 6th temps are in the 40s for highs, upper 20s to mid 20s for lows and dropping, with chances for precipitation, but on the low end right now. This does remind me of 93 where they started out with just a small chance of snow and then upped it every day. If anyone wonders, I'm located in northeast alabama in Jackson county on sand mtn.
Im in the piedmont, North Carolina area, and SERIOUSLY worried about friends in the mountainous area after this year's hurricane disaster that is still recovering. Thanks for the update.

I wish i could do something to help. I will be praying for everyone in the area and bringing y'all up in chats where relevant. God bless you. 🙏
Thanks! I’m watching from Asheville and this is truly life saving information. Btw- both of my parents were in meteorology in the USAF and this was really user friendly ❤
In 2004-2005 I was an over the road truck driver. Got caught in a "Lake Effect Snow" in Pennsylvania. A true blizzard is not something to underestimate.
@JugglesGrenades I actually pushed snow with bumper of my old pete hood to get out the truck repair garage I stopped at, was hell getting up the hill to get in there! next morning got up, 2' snow on the hood, cleaned it off, dumped the airbags, put it in 3rd gear, locked rears and popped clutch, actually worked lmao, was in somerset PA ruffist trip I ever did run besides walcot
Same here, white out conditions, pull over and make sure you have enough Diesel to keep the engine at idle for heat, until roads can be cleaned, never roll in a whiteout snow blizzard, waiting it out is the wise choice before rolling on.
I’ll never forget the blizzard of 78. My dad had to push me out the front window because we had snow up in front of our front door. You couldn’t open it. I lived in Buffalo New York and it’s almost a necessity to have a snowblower and a skidoo it’s winter nine months out of the year
The 1978 Buffalo blizzard pretty much wrecked that city's future. The airport there was closed for maybe two weeks, preventing people from flying to Florida. In New York City then, newly elected Mayor Koch left the borough of Queens un-plowed while the Sanitation Department put all its efforts clearing Manhattan streets and sidewalks. Especially bad was that NYC got hit by two snowstorms, maybe four days apart. Koch did nothing about the first in Queens, so the snow was three feet deep by sidewalks for weeks. Alternate side of the street parking regulations were suspended for maybe six weeks because of the snow. That parking ticketing suspension was Koch's big concern, since his political backers were looting the Parking Violation Bureau. In Ohio then, power plants were running short on coal because coal barges had to deal with thick river ice and the coal itself was frozen by the cold weather. The big worry in the 1970s was a new global ice age.
@@DarhaLBI agree but up here in New England the northern towns need the revenue of the ski and snowmobiling industry it’s been slow last few years and it has taken a toll on economy of those towns 😊
78 in CT. Yes the doors had feet in front of them. My dad made me an igloo by hand! And in front of it we wrote in the snow 1978. Those were good times for our family . They r gone now so im glad I at Least have those fond memories
I was working in West Hartford and the machine I was working on that day was in front of a window that looked out on to the parking lot and I watched my car disappear under the snow. I was driving a 74 FWD Subaru with snow tires and had no problems getting back to Windsor but I had to stop a few times to help people stuck in the snow get moving.
I remember 1995 Fort Lee, VA. I was in AIT and we had to shovel snow every 3 hours for 2 days. We were freezing and exhausted AND THEN, had to go to the field to dig out all the tents and training equipment that got buried in the woods. As a kid in Germany, I played in the snow all day and never got tired… As an adult, it hits different 😅
I was stationed at Ft Lee a long time ago in food service ...then next station was in Germany ...Germany was freezing hahahaha when we had to go do field maneuvers in big tents in 3 ft of snow for two weeks
Today it was 55 degrees in upstate NY. Sun Dec 29th. Tomorrow it supposed to be 50 , 49 on new years eve. Or 15 day local forecast is showing 30s and 40s, we do have a cold front moving in in and around the 10 th of January. But absolutely no snow in the forecast..😁 just an update from upstate. Cheers
Yup, yesterday in north Virginia it was 65. Kids were out playing soccer in Ts and shorts. Similarly, it’s forecasted to dip into something more seasonally normal. But I’ll believe these blizzard predictions when I see them.
@@jeffreyhanc1711 All these "The sky is blue and its warm. I'm good" comments is concerning. Like putting your heads in the sand. Better to prepare for extreme low temperatures, than to not have them. I've lived in Buffalo for 31 years. I've seen multiple seasons of extreme cold and blizzards. Prepare for it.
@ LOL. I lived in Vermont (Bennington) for awhile - I know how capricious winter weather can be. First off, Va is not buffalo - not even close. Second, I was reacting to the video not even commenting on the spate of unusually warm weather occurring throughout the area but stating it’s already cold, when objectively the opposite is occurring (sort of makes me dubious re any predictions made herein).
I grew up in the area between Erie and Buffalo. Snowfall like this is just a way of life. Lake effect is insane. 1ft when you wake up. Another foot at lunch and another 10-15” by evening. More tge next say. Snow comes down so hard and fast that you’ll have 3” of new snow on your car 10mins after you just cleaned it off. I hate it now and been loving these mild winters.
The mild winters are nice, beyond gorgeous right now, but the lakes don't freeze. Unseasonably warm lakes, hit with cold quick wind; I'm thinking like two or three years ago, when I spent a week digging corridors between homes. Broke four shovels in one night, just me. Hopefully it's not like that here, more worried for those in the line of this down south, and Appalachia, but my backs getting old for this. Loved winter as a kid
Your forecasting was the easiest to understand and you did a spectacular job of explaining what’s coming. I will be tuning into you a lot more frequently. Keep up the good work.👍
Wow! This was such a pleasant change! A positive 'thank you for a job well done' message?? You must be an 'old schooler' like me lol! Thank YOU for taking the time to write a true 'APPRECIATION' note!
I was in smyrna, Tn. I remember walking home with friends. We were kids and it we had to hang on to a fence until we got in the woods. A tree fell over and we huddled under it for an hour or so. Pine needles and branches on our head. I dont remember being cold or scared, just in awe. Eventually got home and we were out of school for a month. Roads like 5 inches of ice. I learned to sled that winter over pure ice. We didnt have electricity for a few days after. As a kid, it was awesome. As an adult...i cant imagine how bad it would suck.
@@taya4389 It means there was thunder and lightning during an intense snowstorm and when there is thunder during a snowstorm it is usually called "thunder snow" and the snow becomes heavier for awhile. I have been through 3 different thunder snow events myself living here in Illinois and each time we ended up with 1-2' (feet) of snow but that was years ago!
78….I remember. Cleveland, working in a hospital…an essential worker….National Guard had to let me through. We shut down all but most emergency care and surgeries. Now in Massachusetts, south of Boston heading to Cape. If we have to hunker down won’t be the first time.
You are the only Forecaster I follow who has gotten it right so far. You've been calling for the colder air since September, while everyone else was saying winter was gonna be mild and wet. I'm prepping the farm for this cold blast now.
IDK about that. I’m in Western NY and I keep hearing about these crazy snowstorms we are supposed to get and I think we’ve gotten maybe 3 inches so far.
@katespina8037 no one has forecasted any for us in the Mid-Atlantic, they have all called for no snow, mild temps, and lots of rain. We've gotten rain, but it has not been mild.
Christmas eve 2022 the cold temps brought down power in NC for many because they couldn't keep up with demand and equipment failure occurred. Have a backup heat source and test your generators now and have plenty of fuel on hand. Don't wait until its too late and your in the dark for a few days shivering 🥶.
I'm telling you if that 9th snowstorm comes from the south NC will get pounded. In my 40 years every snow storm that has come from the south a been a huge snow maker for us. I can't wait.
The electrical grid will likely be strained from the increased usage to heat homes in the south and that can cause power outages. If you lose power and have no way to heat your home canned food will freeze and burst. Dry goods that won't freeze and burst is better as long as you have an alternate source method to cook those dry goods without electricity.
I agree that winter (78) was further east and very scary. In 76-77 the snow and cold hit Indiana and surrounding as bad or worse than 78 hit eastern Ohio and all of eastern seaboard. The weather followed me when I moved to Columbus from central Indiana. People froze in cars and houses around me, very scary and not romantic like some try to recall that mess
Anyone reading this get yourself a secondary source of heat you go into one room with turn off the water and drain the pipes in the house so they don't freeze and burst. Stay together for warmth.
Yes I'm from Indiana still live here and that was the worst experience ever crawling out the windows to get our son trying to find a store that was open trying to heat the house up lol it was so cold my father started taking the doors off the rooms in upstairs and burning them in the fireplace my mother had to stop him LOL cuz he was going to start burning some of the beds upstairs LOL LOL scary times but funny times
I pray for no snow or ice for January 10 to the 20th I live in NC and my daughter lives in Panama City , she has a giant mass on her kidney and she only has one kidney so if you pray 🙏 I will appreciate it . I am traveling to Florida on those dates . I need a safe passage.
Lord God, we pray for Your favor over this family. May the weather not cause any hindrance or difficulty for them. Clear all paths, guide all air and land travel, keep power flowing everywhere they are, and most importantly, heal her daughter in the name of Jesus. Use whatever means You desire - doctors, treatments, surgery, or a miracle - but I pray for health and strength and recovery for her. May this mass be safely removed, may it be benign, and may it never return all the days of her life. Grant them peace about the coming days, confidence in Your goodness, and certainty in Your almighty power to work all things together for their good. We ask You these things, believing they shall be done, in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen. 🙏🏼
I grew up in the 60s and this was normal for us living in the north east. Loved it. Us kids would be out side all day. There weren’t many fat people back then.
Very true even for me in the 80’s.. tons of snow and no internet… Life was good!!! Sledding, ice skating, skiing for some…. I had so much fun.. feel bad for the kids these days.
Absolutely! It would snow much MUCH more than it has these last few years! What a blast to build forts & go sledding!! NO SCHOOL either!!😂 (way before internet!)
I'm sitting over here at a truck stop on North Lima, OH. It was just raining in the afternoon, but now its the middle of the night and the winds are ripping through here pretty good, cooled off quite a bit too.
You must be very young, because I have absolutely seen huge, INSANE Mid-Atlantic snow (Washington, DC; Charlottesville, VA; West Virginia, etc.) in 1978, 1993, 2010…and polar vortices that have killed people in that region.
Thank you for correctly pluralizing vortex. It’s a pet peeve of mine, so it’s always nice to see somebody do it right. I hope you have a happy New Year
My brother couldn’t get past Sandy Springs in that big storm. He was headed to Canton. Had to spend the night in the lobby of a hotel. At least he was warm. Still took him most of the next day to get home. There was one around 1983 that clogged up the whole of Atlanta. Roads were solid ice. When you stopped, going 2 miles an hour, you would slide backwards and hopefully didnt hit the car behind you. Atlanta is not good with snow or ice storms
All forecasts and weather models are calling for slightly below normal temperatures at best and exceptionally dry weather in January. No snow expected for the east, let alone a blizzard.
It’s been a different story out west so far I’ve never seen a Winter season so weak here in the state of MT infrequent snows and only a couple inches fall and most of it melts in the following days as it frequently dips above freezing now I haven’t seen any brutal sub zero temperatures it’s almost like a temperature climate here now rather than a continental climate because it just doesn’t get brutally cold or snow heavily anymore at least for now maybe it’s just a very late delay in Winter but I’m really hoping it stays mild for the whole season.
I live in Erie Pennsylvania and have lived here my whole life lake effect snow is no joke even today. The Thanksgiving storm we had here stranded me in my house for almost a week.
We had 2 ft. In VA in 1993 or 94 and it was one of the best 2 weeks of my life. I was about 15 with 4 or 5 friends there and my dad smoking alot of smoke. With wood stove food and wrestling in the yard in the snow.
So far up here in North Eastern Maine, it has been a mild winter. Yesterday was 40⁰ today it was almost 50⁰. We do not consider it cold until the night time temps go below 0⁰ As of right now, at 10:30 pm. It is 35⁰ outside at the end of December in northeastern Maine.
I’m in the same area. From what I’ve observed over the years the weather pattern that is in place in December is what seems to dictate what kind of winter we will have. If it’s -30 in December and snowing like crazy then it will be a rough winter. We got none of that this December. The euro model showing over 40 inches of snow for our area for the next two weeks is nothing short of lunacy.
It was 65 degrees in central NJ today. I found grass growing in a sunny spot in the yard. No further snow on the ground, all mud. Hydrangeas had green buds. Birds all around.
East TN here, it's been nothing but high 50s for us....I'm watching this and looking at the weather channel and I'm like " it won't do a damn thing except be cold..."
@@joycemclean3894 In 1993 I wore shorts and shirt to classes the day before the blizzard hit with 70mph winds in NW Georgia. We had 12-18" inches of snow and 3' long icicles some drifts in Alabama were 5' high.
your Temps are way off for next week in the northeast...50-60 from Monday to Wednesday..unusually WARM...and then only going into the 40's...also ocean Temps are 5 degrees above normal, so any storms coming up the coast will pull in warmer air off ocean and bring rain...this has been the new normal for 9 years now in the northeast
@@JoseRodriguez-og7yz the cold spell coming next week isn't anything out the ordinary for winter...certainly not "lifetime unique" and the jet stream is pushing south off the coast wich will keep storms away from the northeast...so its going to be dry and cold...30's...these weather youtubers sensationalize and grandstand scenarios that don't materialize. Other than that I don't have a problem with it, yet facts are facts the earth is warming and "winter" struggles to materialize relative to historical "norms" the ocean stays warmer longer maybe in February a big storm will hit the northeast but its been far far too warm so far and jet stream is not setting up to do it now.
@@dmcrisp I don’t know, here in Virginia other than that Christmas forecast, he did predict every snowstorm in this area perfectly on the dot, especially the January 8th to 16th snowstorm.
The last time NE Florida got snow was in 89, and of course people who had never driven in snow decided to get out and drive in it, it went as well as you'd expect, my FIL being one of those people, ended up sliding into a light pole.
No surprise when nobody has winter or studded tires and yet I see crazy mfs in the comments wanting snow in Florida they need to pack their bags and move north if they really want that crap! Most of them will realize snow sucks and they’ll be heading right back to Florida!
No thanks. The idea of no power and broken water pipes is not something anyone needs. Didn't like being stuck inside for covid? Imagine being trapped inside waiting for someone to dig you out.
@@gailcarey3597 There's more to NC than the mountains. NC is a big state. We could ask for a little here in parts not in the mountains. But yeah, I hope they don't get much.
@@TheAssistedLivingProjectyesss!! Thank you for that!! I love my family and people in the mountians of NC but I’m in the Sandhills of NC almost 4 hours away I would LOVE some snow instead of tornadoes and severe thunderstorms! People don’t realize NC is a very big state ❤
I live in Hampton, VA. I'd love to see some snow. I won't be driving in it, but I'll watch it if it comes. I've lived through nearly this pattern back in the 1970's when we had an East Coast blizzard then. You might want to look back at those models. I remember the heater never cutting off the entire night and the the temps so cold we left faucets running instead of dripping.
People don’t realize how inaccurate the 2 week models are. They aren’t even accurate within a few days. These same models called for white Christmas’s up and down the east coast.
Bro - it’s 53 in Albany NY at 10:06 pm. 12/29/24 and the forecast is above 35 for the next week with no snow in the forecast. I think ur models need some tweaking. And don’t think for a second I trust any forecast beyond 5 days out.
Lol I'm from nh, it's awesome.. lived in az for a few years and missed the snow.. 4 years ago we got 48 inches out of nowhere, sometimes when we are supposed to get 2 inches we get 18 instead lol.
Try spirit crushing humidity @ 100+ degrees along with blood sucking mosquitoes. Yea I will take he snow ANY day. Mountains you say!!!! when you can have flat land or swamp!!!! 🤣
@@shyecjj Which is why I moved to the north. I don't mind the cold but I've grown tired of the snow. But that southern heat can be suffocating, I know exactly what you mean. I felt the same way about snow when I lived there. After moving North, I enjoyed it for about 5 years. Now it's just a hassle. Unlike in the South, the snow has to be over 5 or 6 inches sometimes more, before the schools even consider closing. If you work, your job still expects you to show up. Heavy snow is not an excuse to miss work. Did I mention power outages during the coldest time of the year? Snow can be very disruptive and a real pain in the a^^.
1978, 1982, 1993, It's been a while since we had a blizzard or ice storm. 🥶🥶🥶. It figures that now, when I'm total electric and can't afford a generator, it would happen again. 😖🥶

Be careful what you wish for. The Blizzard of 78, I was there. Almost died, absolutely unforgettable.
These people wishing for these blizzards have no idea what they are praying for.
I was 5. I have pictures of it. How did you almost die? Did you get stuck in it?
I'm sure it will turn out to be a non-event, at least for the south.
I was one, but since my mom and aunt both just passed away I've been looking through a lot of old photos. Our entire front door was covered in snow.
I was 12, my sister was in college and got stuck coming home, had to leave her car on the highway and walk for a mile, very scary!
In 2004-2005 I was an over the road truck driver. Got caught in a "Lake Effect Snow" in Pennsylvania. A true blizzard is not something to underestimate.
Got caught Christmas Day 2017 just outside of Erie, PA there in Ohio. It was wild. I think it was about 5 or 6 feet of snow in 48 hours.
Yeah even 5th wheels getting donated are no match for such 😢
@@sjselby95 had that about a month ago, same area.

Hopefully it's not like that here, more worried for those in the line of this down south, and Appalachia, but my backs getting old for this.
Loved winter as a kid
I’m in Elma and lake effect is crazy .
Facts lived in Batavia for a few years and family still does… snow there is in another level and it’s normal
Your forecasting was the easiest to understand and you did a spectacular job of explaining what’s coming. I will be tuning into you a lot more frequently. Keep up the good work.👍
Wow! This was such a pleasant change! A positive 'thank you for a job well done' message?? You must be an 'old schooler' like me lol! Thank YOU for taking the time to write a true 'APPRECIATION' note!
Reminds me of the blizzard of 93. We got 2 ft of snow in northwest Georgia.
I was in WNC, ... 3 to 4 feet
🎉not every 1 knows gfs or pna means
I was in smyrna, Tn. I remember walking home with friends. We were kids and it we had to hang on to a fence until we got in the woods. A tree fell over and we huddled under it for an hour or so. Pine needles and branches on our head. I dont remember being cold or scared, just in awe. Eventually got home and we were out of school for a month. Roads like 5 inches of ice. I learned to sled that winter over pure ice. We didnt have electricity for a few days after. As a kid, it was awesome. As an adult...i cant imagine how bad it would suck.
Todd, NC got 30 inches in the 93 blizzard. We were there. White out conditions with the tiniest snowflakes I have ever seen.
Yep, thunder snow in Atlanta. Also very like Snow Jam 82.
I remember the 78 Blizzard, we were cold, no power for days. The thunder snow was tremendous.
Thunder snow? Please enlighten me I’m seriously curious of this.
@@taya4389 It means there was thunder and lightning during an intense snowstorm and when there is thunder during a snowstorm it is usually called "thunder snow" and the snow becomes heavier for awhile. I have been through 3 different thunder snow events myself living here in Illinois and each time we ended up with 1-2' (feet) of snow but that was years ago!
I remember the winter of 78 in Illinois...feet of cold & wind chill Temps between Christmas & New Year's minus 60 with wind.
I hate when there's feet of cold
😮
Please pray for me as I am going to have surgery on January 9th.
Prayers all goes well!
I will.
Praying

I remember the blizzard of 78'. I just had my third child. The snow was blown above our garage door. Neighbors helped my husband dig out.
The blizzard of 78 feet?
@@67L48Hope you're attempting to be funny.
My brother in-law was conceived during the storm of 78 lol
@@mariek8578 Perhaps a little, but 78’ is not an abbreviation for 1978. 78’ means 78 feet.
@@enigmaticallis3110there wasn’t anything better to do while closed in… Many were conceived according to hospital records.
Thanks for keeping us informed, in Cleveland Tennessee
Best detailed videos on here thank you!
78….I remember. Cleveland, working in a hospital…an essential worker….National Guard had to let me through. We shut down all but most emergency care and surgeries. Now in Massachusetts, south of Boston heading to Cape. If we have to hunker down won’t be the first time.
You are the only Forecaster I follow who has gotten it right so far. You've been calling for the colder air since September, while everyone else was saying winter was gonna be mild and wet. I'm prepping the farm for this cold blast now.
IDK about that. I’m in Western NY and I keep hearing about these crazy snowstorms we are supposed to get and I think we’ve gotten maybe 3 inches so far.
@katespina8037 no one has forecasted any for us in the Mid-Atlantic, they have all called for no snow, mild temps, and lots of rain. We've gotten rain, but it has not been mild.
Hmm were was this Christmas blizzard he called last week??
@@katespina8037well…usually that comes in January
@katespina8037 I am in Western NY (West Seneca) and we have surely had more than 3 inches 😂
Man I don’t mind a dusting but anything more than that I’m ready to move to the Caribbean 🤣
I’m thinking I want to buy a Caribbean island. You game? 🐐 🐓 🪴
I’m with you
Christmas eve 2022 the cold temps brought down power in NC for many because they couldn't keep up with demand and equipment failure occurred. Have a backup heat source and test your generators now and have plenty of fuel on hand. Don't wait until its too late and your in the dark for a few days shivering 🥶.
GREAT Advice 💯
I was there it wasnt that cold and not one person i knew lost power.
Landlords don’t allow back up heating because of fire risk
I'm telling you if that 9th snowstorm comes from the south NC will get pounded. In my 40 years every snow storm that has come from the south a been a huge snow maker for us. I can't wait.
You're right about southern storms, and I've also noticed that Texas had been getting snow before us , or even if we don't get any in N.C.
Yeah that is the classic setup for the Carolinas. Reminds me of the 1980s style storms that would close schools for days when I was a teenager.
Yep....
Im 7 miles west of shelby , hope we get at least some snow
It ain’t gonna happen
If we get 22 inches in central NC…Id better get some big cans of Dinty Moore
We got 16 inches of snow like 2 weeks ago in Floyd ny
BREAD AND MILK ALERT
The electrical grid will likely be strained from the increased usage to heat homes in the south and that can cause power outages. If you lose power and have no way to heat your home canned food will freeze and burst. Dry goods that won't freeze and burst is better as long as you have an alternate source method to cook those dry goods without electricity.
@ got a bunch of wood to burn
@ plenty of food dry and otherwise. Lots of camping cooking stuff. Wood to burn
I plow snow in Central IL bring on the snow i want 12 to 15 inches of snow hope we get it
Thanks for the update, John Madden.😉
With a forecast like this, we'll all be stuck inside doing our best Pat Summerall impression
I agree that winter (78) was further east and very scary. In 76-77 the snow and cold hit Indiana and surrounding as bad or worse than 78 hit eastern Ohio and all of eastern seaboard. The weather followed me when I moved to Columbus from central Indiana. People froze in cars and houses around me, very scary and not romantic like some try to recall that mess
Anyone reading this get yourself a secondary source of heat you go into one room with turn off the water and drain the pipes in the house so they don't freeze and burst. Stay together for warmth.
Yes I'm from Indiana still live here and that was the worst experience ever crawling out the windows to get our son trying to find a store that was open trying to heat the house up lol it was so cold my father started taking the doors off the rooms in upstairs and burning them in the fireplace my mother had to stop him LOL cuz he was going to start burning some of the beds upstairs LOL LOL scary times but funny times
I pray for no snow or ice for January 10 to the 20th I live in NC and my daughter lives in Panama City , she has a giant mass on her kidney and she only has one kidney so if you pray 🙏 I will appreciate it . I am traveling to Florida on those dates . I need a safe passage.
🙏🙏🙏 from NY
Lord God, we pray for Your favor over this family. May the weather not cause any hindrance or difficulty for them. Clear all paths, guide all air and land travel, keep power flowing everywhere they are, and most importantly, heal her daughter in the name of Jesus. Use whatever means You desire - doctors, treatments, surgery, or a miracle - but I pray for health and strength and recovery for her. May this mass be safely removed, may it be benign, and may it never return all the days of her life. Grant them peace about the coming days, confidence in Your goodness, and certainty in Your almighty power to work all things together for their good. We ask You these things, believing they shall be done, in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen. 🙏🏼

I grew up in the 60s and this was normal for us living in the north east. Loved it. Us kids would be out side all day. There weren’t many fat people back then.
Very true even for me in the 80’s.. tons of snow and no internet… Life was good!!! Sledding, ice skating, skiing for some…. I had so much fun.. feel bad for the kids these days.
Absolutely! It would snow much MUCH more than it has these last few years! What a blast to build forts & go sledding!! NO SCHOOL either!!😂 (way before internet!)
North Carolina mild winter for years except the mountains,
Had a blizzard in 89 here in whiteville NC and a really bad ice storm in 2002 .
I'm sitting over here at a truck stop on North Lima, OH. It was just raining in the afternoon, but now its the middle of the night and the winds are ripping through here pretty good, cooled off quite a bit too.
May all ur wishes be fulfilled!!!❤😊
You must be very young, because I have absolutely seen huge, INSANE Mid-Atlantic snow (Washington, DC; Charlottesville, VA; West Virginia, etc.) in 1978, 1993, 2010…and polar vortices that have killed people in that region.
The blizzard of 93, that was an epic one. I was stuck in my home for four days, no power, phone, nothing. I measured 30” of snow in my driveway.
'93 survivor here.
i remember 93 the coast was bad from va up to Maine
Thank you for correctly pluralizing vortex. It’s a pet peeve of mine, so it’s always nice to see somebody do it right. I hope you have a happy New Year
I feel like school was closed for 2 weeks for ‘93, ‘96 too
The East Coast better get a snowstorm from this pattern
@@nicktracy4118 he's talking about Jan 8-14
@nicktracy4118 you slow mentally check your phone weather app starting after new years it will be cold for snow u mo-mo
Had to walk 8 miles home last time Atlanta had a big snow. I work from home now so I can’t wait. Lol😂
My brother couldn’t get past Sandy Springs in that big storm. He was headed to Canton. Had to spend the night in the lobby of a hotel. At least he was warm. Still took him most of the next day to get home. There was one around 1983 that clogged up the whole of Atlanta. Roads were solid ice. When you stopped, going 2 miles an hour, you would slide backwards and hopefully didnt hit the car behind you. Atlanta is not good with snow or ice storms
Still remembering the Blizzard of 78 in Northeastern Ma. Hopefully this year will be an old fashion winter with very cold and snow snow snow!!!
Just no ice tho😊
I was at the Jersey shore for that one...
Why would anyone want snow and cold?!😂
I was 5 yrs old. I have pictures sitting on the top of a snowbank.
As a kid, I thought the ‘78 blizzard was great.. As an adult, that big kind of storm loses its charm
I recall the bitterly cold and windy winter of 78 in Illinois. The temperature was minus 60 degrees with wind between Christmas and New Year's.
All forecasts and weather models are calling for slightly below normal temperatures at best and exceptionally dry weather in January. No snow expected for the east, let alone a blizzard.
Yep. He’s just overhyping long range forecasts for clicks. No blizzard is gonna happen for the south
Yeah he is out of his mind
Yeah i don't see it happening either.
We have snow on the Forcast for Monday here in Philadelphia.
@@jerm215 32% chance for 0.7” in Philadelphia lmao. Try again hahahaha
I live in Chattanooga TN. We haven't had a good snow since 2010 on Christmas day.
I agree….Although it is fun watching everyone pillage milk and bread when snow word is even mentioned.🤣🤣
@kevinrich4637 i am going to stock up on some canned food, bread and peanut butter haha.
I'm in Chattanooga too!
So much for the La Nina with a warmer and drier South, looks like January and February could be brutal here.
It’s been a different story out west so far I’ve never seen a Winter season so weak here in the state of MT infrequent snows and only a couple inches fall and most of it melts in the following days as it frequently dips above freezing now I haven’t seen any brutal sub zero temperatures it’s almost like a temperature climate here now rather than a continental climate because it just doesn’t get brutally cold or snow heavily anymore at least for now maybe it’s just a very late delay in Winter but I’m really hoping it stays mild for the whole season.
I live in Erie Pennsylvania and have lived here my whole life lake effect snow is no joke even today. The Thanksgiving storm we had here stranded me in my house for almost a week.
We had 2 ft. In VA in 1993 or 94 and it was one of the best 2 weeks of my life. I was about 15 with 4 or 5 friends there and my dad smoking alot of smoke. With wood stove food and wrestling in the yard in the snow.
24 inches of snow is bonkers to me lol. Hello from Virginia!
Are we going to make sure
N Carolina is ready for this ~ Bless them
Gonna put off planting my tomato plants until February -- southwest coastal Florida.
The Euro model has the Blizzard of '93 written all over it. I remember the exact same setup. Let's hope it pans out!!!
i was 5 at the time in Philadelphia then we had that ice storm in 96
Blizzard of 93 was a hurricane that transferred into snow.
Why do you want a fatal disaster to pan out?
@@V3Brandonnot fatal if you are prepared and braced for impact.
@v3brandon, depends on how you want to look at it. If you are prepared, no problem. If you are not then maybe you didn't heed advice given.
So far up here in North Eastern Maine, it has been a mild winter. Yesterday was 40⁰ today it was almost 50⁰.
We do not consider it cold until the night time temps go below 0⁰
As of right now, at 10:30 pm. It is 35⁰ outside at the end of December in northeastern Maine.
I’m in the same area. From what I’ve observed over the years the weather pattern that is in place in December is what seems to dictate what kind of winter we will have. If it’s -30 in December and snowing like crazy then it will be a rough winter. We got none of that this December. The euro model showing over 40 inches of snow for our area for the next two weeks is nothing short of lunacy.
It was 65 degrees in central NJ today. I found grass growing in a sunny spot in the yard. No further snow on the ground, all mud. Hydrangeas had green buds. Birds all around.
Frigid cold cracks your limbs
Spring is in the air. 😄
East TN here, it's been nothing but high 50s for us....I'm watching this and looking at the weather channel and I'm like " it won't do a damn thing except be cold..."
I live in Philadelphia and the Forcast for Monday is showing snow for pa , nj and ny.. Just saying
This has to be the BEST EVER WEATHER FORECAST AVAILABLE. CUDOS TO YOU!
I'm in New England no snow in the forecast. It was 56° yesterday. High today is 51 so I don't think so
I was out in short sleeves lol
Duh because this happens starting on January 8 . It’s a FORCAST meaning FUTURE 🤦🏾♀️
I'm in New England too❤
@@xzAllisonxz in Maine tonight for my birthday!! Where are you?
@@joanbaczek2575 lol my forecast is sunny in the 30s until the 14th…
December 28,29 we had 70 degrees weather in Fayetteville North Carolina.
Yeah, tornado warnings and mid 60s in the Piedmont and Charlotte area
@@joycemclean3894 In 1993 I wore shorts and shirt to classes the day before the blizzard hit with 70mph winds in NW Georgia. We had 12-18" inches of snow and 3' long icicles some drifts in Alabama were 5' high.
If they don’t get covered on too much snow, we may finally be able to go skate on the ponds here in No Virginia for the 1st time in several years.
It’s 50 degrees in New England today December 31 st!
.?
Jan 8 will be punishing you for today 😂
We here in Eastern States are going to have historic cold weather starting after the New Year and a lot of snow.
Says who?
I hope you are right
Thanks for all the info!
Now I'm braced, double braced, and triple braced in northern New England 🥶 😏 🫠
Well in Louisiana the mosquitoes are flying around dry humping each other. Pecan trees are putting out new blooms. So bring it on.
Just checked my local weather and not a day below freezing.
your Temps are way off for next week in the northeast...50-60 from Monday to Wednesday..unusually WARM...and then only going into the 40's...also ocean Temps are 5 degrees above normal, so any storms coming up the coast will pull in warmer air off ocean and bring rain...this has been the new normal for 9 years now in the northeast
He said next week was warm and the cold was the week after. I live in ny and the weather forecast I see says the same with snow on Monday.
Yep…. Global warming is real.
It's now stating in NY that later this week after Wednesday we will have snow and 20-degree weather.
Tell us you didn’t listen properly without actually telling us.
@@JoseRodriguez-og7yz the cold spell coming next week isn't anything out the ordinary for winter...certainly not "lifetime unique" and the jet stream is pushing south off the coast wich will keep storms away from the northeast...so its going to be dry and cold...30's...these weather youtubers sensationalize and grandstand scenarios that don't materialize. Other than that I don't have a problem with it, yet facts are facts the earth is warming and "winter" struggles to materialize relative to historical "norms" the ocean stays warmer longer maybe in February a big storm will hit the northeast but its been far far too warm so far and jet stream is not setting up to do it now.
Happy New Year
Happy new year 🎉
Happy New Year!! 🎆

Snow-pocalypse ❄☃️
Awesome video, looking forward to the next one!
The last time NE Florida got snow was in 89, and of course people who had never driven in snow decided to get out and drive in it, it went as well as you'd expect, my FIL being one of those people, ended up sliding into a light pole.
No surprise when nobody has winter or studded tires and yet I see crazy mfs in the comments wanting snow in Florida they need to pack their bags and move north if they really want that crap! Most of them will realize snow sucks and they’ll be heading right back to Florida!
I was born in the blizzard of 78 I want another one so I can play in it 😆
It was a blast! I was 10 at the time. Perfect age for winter fun!
I’ll make a snow fort, they are always fun and warm
No thanks. The idea of no power and broken water pipes is not something anyone needs. Didn't like being stuck inside for covid? Imagine being trapped inside waiting for someone to dig you out.
I was 27 at the time, living in Boston. It wasn't as much fun as you might think.

I would lov some snow in NC
After all they have been through? They are still finding bodies.

There's more to NC than the mountains. NC is a big state. We could ask for a little here in parts not in the mountains. But yeah, I hope they don't get much.

About time, been waiting for snow for too dam long.
I can’t tell what Virginia will be getting? Between Dc and Richmond.
I live in Hampton, VA. I'd love to see some snow. I won't be driving in it, but I'll watch it if it comes. I've lived through nearly this pattern back in the 1970's when we had an East Coast blizzard then. You might want to look back at those models. I remember the heater never cutting off the entire night and the the temps so cold we left faucets running instead of dripping.
People don’t realize how inaccurate the 2 week models are. They aren’t even accurate within a few days. These same models called for white Christmas’s up and down the east coast.
We did have a white Christmas in upstate NY. The snow hanging in the fir trees 🌲 was a beautiful sight. 🎅🏻
We also had a white Christmas in the Boston area
Bro - it’s 53 in Albany NY at 10:06 pm. 12/29/24 and the forecast is above 35 for the next week with no snow in the forecast.
I think ur models need some tweaking. And don’t think for a second I trust any forecast beyond 5 days out.
This is a dumb comment
Really appreciate the insights in this video.

I’m with you. I’ve lived in NJ my whole life the people that wish for this are out of their mind
Kentucky here. We have has Very little snow last ten years. Don't need any
You might consider moving or hibernation.
Try spirit crushing humidity @ 100+ degrees along with blood sucking mosquitoes. Yea I will take he snow ANY day. Mountains you say!!!! when you can have flat land or swamp!!!! 🤣
@@shyecjj Which is why I moved to the north. I don't mind the cold but I've grown tired of the snow. But that southern heat can be suffocating, I know exactly what you mean. I felt the same way about snow when I lived there. After moving North, I enjoyed it for about 5 years. Now it's just a hassle. Unlike in the South, the snow has to be over 5 or 6 inches sometimes more, before the schools even consider closing. If you work, your job still expects you to show up. Heavy snow is not an excuse to miss work. Did I mention power outages during the coldest time of the year? Snow can be very disruptive and a real pain in the a^^.
Great tips, thanks for sharing!
