    Default Coldest in years...



    Frigid weather headed our way, could be coldest in years, WYFF News 4’s Chris Justus says

    Forecast models show potential for real temperature of zero with much lower wind chills

    GREENVILLE, S.C. —

    The mild, wet winter experienced in the Upstate so far this year is expected to change dramatically over the next couple weeks, according to WYFF News 4 meteorologist Chris Justus.

    Chris said the drizzle on Saturday will change over to rain into Sunday, with the potential for some wintry mix in the mountains. It will start to get windy Saturday night, with winds increasing to 30 - 40 mph on Sunday in the mountains and 20 - 30 mph in Greenville, making the cooling temperatures feel even colder.

    By 10 p.m. Sunday, the feels-like temperature will be around 0 in the mountains and in the teens in the Upstate. By Monday morning, the wind chill in Asheville is expected to be minus 5.

    Cold air coming
    But the real story is looking ahead at computer models showing at least one extremely cold blast -- potentially two -- that could move into the Southeast by mid- to late-week.

    “It’s been several years since we’ve seen real lows as cold as what’s forecast,” Chris said.

    Current forecast models show a low temperature of zero in Greenville on Jan. 28, with wind chills much lower.

    The EURO model shows the frigid air moving in earlier and bringing the possibility of some snow. The GFS model doesn’t show any snow and it has the severe cold holding off until early February.

    In any case, Chris says the Upstate and mountains should prepare for frigid weather that has not shown up yet this winter.

    YOu follow weather a lot more than I do so I’m not arguing but that’s no where near what weather.com is showing. They are saying a low of 30ish on the 28th for travelers rest.

    That’s only a 30° difference, well within the margin of error

    I have already had to endure record low temperatures in Saskatchewan this year. I want no part of any more of that...

    Chris Justus is using the European model. That said, Chris is one of the best around in my opinion.

    After duck season what is there... I'll tell you what winter brings after hunting is over. Gloom, static electricity, cold, golf balls don't go far, women aren't smelling like coconuts, early sunsets, paleness, no green grass.. real green grass, I mean I rye the back, but that sucks.

    Yep. That's one that was outside at my dad's. It's a newer Lodge pan, so it's nothing special. But I do need to get it cleaned up, and seasoned. This is another one that was probably in worse shape than that one is. I got it cleaned up, and took it for a test drive the other day.
