Who is focusing on it? Just sharing model output, which for central NC is not a stretch considering dry slot. These comments are what irritate posters. Oh and look NAM very similar

Apologies man. You are one of the extremely knowledgeable posters. That wasn’t directed at you. More so I was just saying overall dont focus on one specific model right now but real time. My bad if it came across that way!

Novice here in Athens, Ga. 3 small kids in an apartment. Father in law lives 20 miles south in Madison ga ( Morgan county). Trying to figure out if we need to pack up everything and the kids and stay with the in laws. They have fireplace and generator. Initially it looked like impacts could be significant in Athens, possibly even further south in Morgan county. Sees like all the latest forecast and trends are really downplaying the potential ice accumulation in these areas. NWS still advising .25 to 1 inch. Any advice on what we should do or the expectation on these areas?

Truly insane that the low is gonna slam right into the HP and keep rolling.
 
I don’t know this answer but maybe a knowledgeable poster can chime in. I know in the past storms have happened that took some moisture away but I remember seeing by a lot of people yesterday that if storms do pop up in the gulf with this specific storm it has a strong possibility to enhance moisture upstream.

I think it has slightly more scientific reasoning than other boogeymen but tbh unless Tallahassee has flash flood warnings for training supercells I don’t really think about this very much

If you have 3 small kids in an apt in Athens it’s a no-brainer to go to your in-laws. No matter how “in-law-ry” your in-laws are
 
Yall can laugh… but that little one contour meso-high has been holding strong for 6 hours now. I think there’s a little sauce here for over performance on cold for tomorrow morning. I bet those high pressure contours in the wedge prove more difficult to moderate/equalize than models are showing. View attachment 188563
If you think this is the case, you need to get that phone charged asap
 
The latest HRRR 16z holding on to specifically the CAD is generally solid by tomorrow AM in GA to cause some troubles even west of ATL. This is 5AM and probably looking at a window of a few more hours of CAD before it erodes away.

I know we are focused on GA SC NC but Jesus. Look at Texas, LA, AK, MS. Are they going to make it alive????
 
Another church in the Raleigh area is asking me what I think they should do with canceling services tomorrow they are contemplating having just one service at 11 am don’t know what to tell them

Tell them no. That’s an easy one.
 
Folks have been talking about the convection along the gulf that would aid in moisture transport NE. Has there been any verification of this? Latest radar does show the convection:

Just look at the old model runs for yourself. The models that have that convection and race it farther to the east… lead to more initial precip in central SC/eastern NC early on.

The hi-res models that were bone dry don’t have that convection racing east… and all the precip streams in a perfect curve as far north and west of us as possible, limiting the southern edge.
