The Triangle had 3 storms last year

There’s gonna be one heck of a Lee-side trough Saturday morning. That’s a big reason we’re see the precip breaking out so well over the upstate. It’s like your typical Lee-side trough low level convergence except this time it also has upper level support from the vort max…. I’m honestly pretty high on this producing and possibly surprising some folks. My biggest concern is I think it will be very band-centric and feature winners and losers.

I also like that the progged convergence zone is more towards northeastern Georgia instead of the typical gsp/charlotte region. Thats why models get precip back in to Georgia before pivoting
Haha, I hadn't seen a mention of the lee side low until after I posted my thoughts and went back and read some posts. Nice. Now to get things to actually work out
 
My current thoughts on the potential storm:

Here is a view of the potential Upstate SC Mesolow in this setup (kink in the isobars connecting to the surface low off the coast):

Great write-up as usual grit. How much would it take to get you to cover NE of RDU, I don't know, say somewhere like Roanoke Rapids? 🤔😁

Haha. Thanks for the consideration and all. As long as we can get the wave to behave and drop in like it should, you should be in a great spot there with sfc low strengthening
 
I'm cautiously optimistic about the potential of a weekend storm. For those of us on the coast it's a much better look than "stuff" coming from the west. We've been pretty luck in the last two decades with coastal storms. Only one I can really remember that was too far off the coast to bring us anything.

In other news, both the GFS and Euro nuke central Florida with freezes all the way down to the sugarcane areas around Lake Okeechobee this weekend.
 
If all of this snow is because of a system off the East Coast there's no way for Atlanta or Birmingham to score. Atlanta needs a Gulf storm.
Yes, this is very true. This is not our storm. It gets started way too late. We can look beyond, but frankly, winter is quickly drawing to a close for us. I guess I'm ready for spring.

No matter how cold the pattern looks for February or Beyond, it's always difficult for places as far south as Atlanta to score after about Mid February. So that gives us about 3 more weeks realistically.
