Wintry February 19-21, 2020 Winter Storm

12z NAM a tick south. This bears watching for North AL and GA north of I-20. I little further south and a little more juice and it’s a potential board wide threat. Getting into the NAM wheelhouse.

I don’t wanna hex is but I’ve said this all along. It was our only path really was if globals were missing cold sign this far south (social circle ga). We’re into legit NAM territory. I know it can overdo cold but given this set up it may best the globals. At least we’re not out of game totally yet. Here’s to NAMing ourselves to victory?
 
i think that it is important to look at everything going into this setup rather than what the models are spitting out verbatim. sure, euro/gfs aren't showing deep blues over nc/sc but looking at the soundings it is obvious that with anything other than a drizzle it will likely be snow.

now, hoping for a westward tick in precip is not unreasonable, look at the past few runs of the nam/gfs/euro for tues/weds rain event and see how much more precip blossomed west than what was initially forecasted.

i don't think it is weenie-ish to be optimistic about this setup in NC because with the northern end of the precip just to the south and upper level temps well below freezing, a small shift in precip will make a massive difference. much different setup than we usually have which is praying for a warm nose to not screw us over.
 
The irony of the GEFS, which was the snowiest ensemble suite for days, is now the least snowy ensemble mean. Meanwhile the Euro has flipped from nothing to a solid storm signal over the past few days. I’d much rather have the EPS on my side in the short range and I expect GEFS will catch back on.

Brick alluded to this a few weeks ago how some models will lose the LP only to bring it back just days before.
 
SREF mean and members. Some big dogs are farther south

Wow, worth noting to that 84 is when it starts effecting NC on some members aswell so this wasn’t 100% done, those members that do show something are quite juicy, was thinking SC (areas around and NE of CAE) we’re out of it but things have sorta looked better, anything is possible lol
Also gotta remember that the sref can kinda suck badly at times tho
