Got the green light to start up this thread. We have some agreement with the GFS, CMC, UKMET, and GEM of a winter storm during the January 1st - 4th time frame. Different models is just off by a day.

3/3 so far, even if it's a few days later.

Hopefully we can get to 4/4 and actually hold this one.
 
Most of this is Tuesday afternoon /night for the western sections

Hahahaha after this storm chase the button needs to say “burnt out”!!!!
Need to add a " dumpster fire" key to that magic computer! Any storm that arrived after Saturday, seems like cold air won't be a problem at all!! Good to have something on all the models at basically the same timeframe
 
Spann:
Still seeing some signals concerning some wintry precipitation across parts of the Deep South Sunday/Sun night. The GFS has trended toward the drier European model; if we do see any snow over the northern half of Alabama it would most likely be light. Of course, this could change

Spann has spoken he's basically our groundhogs he says "light expect 12 inches
 
Spann is dumb for even mentioning intensity of precip at this point. Especially when all models have trended the way they have. This is why he gets tarred and feathered. He needs to understand there is NO REASON to mention precip intensity at this point. He is most likely wrong and now he posted it on social media.
 
If we are relying on the GFS and CMC, we are in deep doo doo here. Only question I have is how far towards Cuba this is suppressed and how strung out the energy becomes over the next couple of days. Is encouraging the UKMET is showing hints of a system though
