Actually it has more to do with the storm path.

I see alot of snow falling in winter, often more than colder areas because i'm close to the ocean and further north.

In my climate the amount of distance inland has an effect. In a cold spell it's not uncommon to have like say 8 inches of snow here and none 10 miles inland.

But that happens in America too at the great lakes so..

An above average winter can definitely make a difference here. In 2006, Lexington never fell below 22F for all of January!
Yeah that's peculiar I wonder if they're closer to storm tracks in the winter?

January 2006 looked more like an Atlanta January than a Lexington one. What do you think of January 1977?

And you know it. So stop attacking me just because you had a bad day.
I resent you because you have money? LOL first off: Mooching off of your parents money doesn't count as YOU having money. When you actually get a job and make your own money and start paying your own bills, THAT'S when you're gonna have money.


Second off: Who gives a **** about how much money someone has? Are you really that shallow and materialistic that you measure someone's worth off of how much money they have or if they wear designer brands and whatnot? That's so pathetic. You're like an overgrown 12 year old.


And no I don't resent you, you're just an annoying little brat.

Exactly if the storm path is south of you and you are affected by the north side of the low (the cold part) you will get snow while more inland and possible colder places than you will receive bland rain because they are on the south side of the low and have a southerly flow.

It certainly is relative. We had an average low of 15F this February, and our mean lowest temperature of the year is -2F. So you can imagine January staying above 20 is tropical by our standards, LOL.

Still, Atlanta does seem to miss out quite a bit.

Lol no I don't. You have money but you don't act like a spoiled brat or like you're better than someone else because of it.

Yes because it's inland.

No my snow comes from showers in unstable Nw airstreams, obviously the showers break up inland reducing accumulations significantly.

It happens a few times each winter..

We saw a colder temperature this year (-18F), but 1977 was still far worse because the high barely got out of the 30s at all. Even with those flawed arctic blasts, places on the Carolina coast have never seen a month fail to reach 60F.
