I love the NAMView attachment 187274View attachment 187275

I mean it’s accurate. Dry hole right over Columbia. Can’t give us a measly pellet.

Now though it looks like it’s drying out and might end up a nuisance event even in my area north of charlotte. It will still build distrust in the eyes may folks unfortunately.

I would be surprised if it ends up only a nuisance event there, but I suppose it’s possible. People will always distrust mets due to the litany of absurd info sources and conversation online that ends up becoming their opinion of meteorologists after a while. Met may handle it perfectly given the difficult circumstances but will get some blame and distrust bc ppl talking about wintry around here creates a never ending hype machine. We’ll do it all again next time

What’s up with the icon showing ZR for nc and sleet for Georgia ? lol

I have never in my life seen models disagree this much inside the 72 hour window

Remember not too long ago when we had 2 snow growth zones?!

We still do in ohio

 

[BIG FROSTY]

Somebody tell me how the National Weather Service is still forecasting heavy snow when none of the modeling is showing that... I know, I know. It'll change...

FRIDAY NIGHT
Mostly cloudy. A chance of snow after midnight. Little or no snow accumulation. Cold with lows in the lower 20s. North winds around 5 mph. Chance of snow 30 percent.

SATURDAY
Snow. Moderate snow accumulation. Much colder. Near steady temperature in the mid 20s. Temperature falling into the lower 20s in the afternoon. Chance of snow 90 percent.

SATURDAY NIGHT
Snow. Snow may be heavy at times. Additional heavy snow accumulation. Cold with lows 10 to 15. Chance of snow near 100 percent.

SUNDAY
Sleet in the morning, then snow and sleet likely in the afternoon. Additional moderate snow accumulation. Cold with highs in the upper 20s. Chance of precipitation near 100 percent.

SUNDAY NIGHT
Mostly cloudy with a chance of snow. Cold with lows 15 to 20. Chance of snow 50 percent.

That should be good for the 8-14 inches, they say!!! lol

Probably enough posting fo me tonite

It hasn’t drank the Baja breeze yet. Hopefully the last time will see red over me.

RGEM is a raging sleet storm from the upstate and nc

Bc they’re not model watching…… they’re actually intelligent at deciphering the data.

0 QPF for i20? This has gotten out of hand

Jim Gandy in Columbia will prob be right. We will have a significant zr. Models aren’t right.

 

[Snowflowxxl]

I still can’t decide if I should buy a heater

 

[atlwx]

You could cook eggs over that warm nose. Dear gracious

I know some folks are done with the Baja low. I’m done seeing this reminder of the Mac Finder icon. That stupid face that is even more dumb looking on macOS Tahoe.

 

[buckinbronco]

Pretty insane how locked in the ICON has been on the major ice threat. I’ve been expecting it to cave for the past few model cycles. This is dumb.

 

[Flo]

I did. It arrives Friday and I will return it Saturday lol

 

[sackjalding]

ICON is consistent. It wants to rage.

 

[ducketta27]

Can anyone explain the 0 QPF south of i20 AGS to CAE?

[SnowmasterATL]

I really don't want the ICON to verify. This is very scary for ATL... on to the CMC, UKMET, GFS, and then the "KING"

 

[Snowfan]

Wonder what the GRAF shows.

 

[Makeitsnow]

There's no way I'm buying 75 in Valdosta and 25 in Atlanta. I've seen big temp differences before but I don't think ive ever seen a 50 degree temp difference between Valdosta and Atlanta.

I've seen a 50 degree difference between here and augusta. it was 35 here and 85 there...i'm about 80 miles away. It can happen.

I remember when Webb was talking about multiple snow growth kitchens

Good point, we'll see how intelligent they are. I hope they are right!!!

 

[lusting4Adusting]

I hate I'm losing a drought buster

Better than losing a slump buster

I remember when Webb was talking about multiple snow growth kitchens

All them kitchens need to turn their damn ovens off

 

[Tarheel1]

I just need .2 of precip
Actual temps below zero Saturday
25:1 ratios, gets me about 6” or so!

 

[Iceagewhereartthou]

We got time for 5 more of these?

Who is staying up for the Euro? I am. Let’s go out in style.

 

[SnowmasterATL]

I think it might be me, but I just don't trust the ICON. probably because I don't want it to happen lol

 

[Snowflowxxl]

Dry slot giving 2014 vibes

Dry slot giving 2014 vibes

That was the last big overrunning event I heard

 

[Iceagewhereartthou]

Hey guys, I'm getting an early start; 35 and rain at my house right now!

 

[GeorgiaGirl]

FWIW:

ICON handled today’s system the best from 2/3 days out.

And yet it’s shown previously that it may not be trustable with CAD events because it overdoes it with cold. We ultimately never will as we’re crazy, but we may have to put this model on the backburner at least involving CAD.

BTW: This area is Helene scarred, so the Mets having barked before they backed off caused the stores to be a madhouse. This is still not going to be the best look to overprepare for something that won’t happen for many as they will be talking about how “ha! winter weather can’t happen here anymore,” and then cynically I think a next time in the near future, our luck runs out.
