Negative I did not receive accumulating snow from either event. Officially a trace both times. I'm located at the red dot. I'm glad GA and the western upstate cashed in. They deserved it! But doesn't change the fact that for about 90% of the SE this winter is abysmal! Maybe we can pull a miracle but time is running short!View attachment 33742
Lol still, a trace both times is still better than my area
 
March 2008 outbreak was wild. Craziest 3 days ever when it comes to severe weather in my area.

2008 was insane here in west and Middle Tennessee during the super Tuesday tornado outbreak. Massive damage and death just 30 minutes northeast of me in Lafayette Tennessee. I drove up there 2 days later and couldn’t believe what I was witnessing. The tv coverage doesn’t come close to seeing EF3 damage and destruction in real life. I remember it also snowed a few days later to make matters worse.

Here we go, first off, keep in mind what your about to read is not an official forecast nor an official prediction. This is not based off of no solid evidence from the models as of yet, but I'll be watching for some features on the models in the coming weeks. As I have said, I 'am indeed predicting a blizzard -- a 1 out of 200 year storm. The last historical snow storm about 200 years ago was the Great Snow Storm of 1831 that dumped snow from Georgia to Maine.

Onto my predictions for the Mega Snow Storm '20. I'm predicting that the storm will form south/south west south of Jamaica, roughly 17°N - 80°W. The storm develops from an area of thunder storms that move northeast from Honduras and Nicaragua. The Mega Snow Storm '20 will have hurricane characteristics. For a strong storm to develop over the ocean, there needs to be 3 main things --- warm water that's at least 80 degrees, there needs to be moist air (which will not be an issue) and there needs to be converging winds -- these 3 main things will be at play at the time the storm beings to develop.

The SSTs are above normal in the Caribbean, SSTs are in the lower 80s in the Caribbean. I think the storm system will track along the gulf stream, which the SSTs in the gulf stream are above normal as well. The above normal temps of the SSTs will fuel this storm just like a hurricane. According to my prediction, there will be prevailing winds from the ESE and from the west, converging winds that will spin this storm up. I also think there will be a phase, a short wave undercuts the northern stream -- the phase occurs off of the southeast coast. It's possible it could be a triple phase, if another short wave comes along in the southern stream...I don't know if there will be a triple phase.

Weather pattern: I think there will be a -EPO, +PNA with a PV lobe over the Upper Plains at the time of the storm, perhaps there will be a -AO as well. The strong storm will pull deep cold air on the northwestern and western side of the low -- snow will be in feet. On the map below, I also think there will be a weak Bermuda high. I know Bermuda highs can be concerning, cause it can cause south winds to warm the southeast. But in this case, I'm predicting that it would be a weak Bermuda high, and this Bermuda high will prevent the storm going out to sea. The time frame for this storm could be any where some time during the tail end of this month or by March 10th. That's all I have for my prediction for now.

is this even possible?

Aw man you had me until you drew the coastal low. With that track it’s gonna have to phase for that coastal atrocity to throw precip back into Georgia and Alabama lol

Here’s my prediction. It’s a 3 day storm meaning it has been happening every 3 days for the past 3 months. Low forms somewhere near the gulf. Heavy rain. Everyone gets rain. Possibly northern Wilkes getting some light onset ice which will warrant it’s own separate thread title. We will focus on details when we get there. Anyway, this will most likely happen on the weekend. Thats where the uncertainty lies right now. Will it rain during the work week or on the weekend? My money is on the weekend. Details to be worked out later

As of now, I'm predicting a phase would occur off of the southeast coast. The phase could be sooner off of the eastern/northeastern coast of FL. The low would have a large shield of moisture just like a hurricane. As I mentioned, there could be a triple phase, a short wave that undercuts the northern stream, short wave along the southern stream and the main low. Either way, I'm predicting that this storm will be a blizzard.

Are you JB son?
 
Yup, I agree to this, the SJT is not going to be cut off anytime soon. This is why I'm predicting that a short wave may come along the southern stream, and phase with that storm that I'm predicting. Either a short wave undercuts the northern stream, or comes along the southern branch, or both. Double or triple phase? that still remains a question for my prediction.

Lol, I was picking post above, but you are so strong in believing that a maga storm will happen that you almost have me convince
I really hope we see something in that nature before time runs out.

As long as Tuscaloosa AL gets in on the action I'm fine with it
