Winter forecasting in the south is very easy. We tend to over-complicate it, but it’s actually quite simplistic. Start by taking the most unfavorable storm track. Add in the warmest solution within the guidance suite. Combine at medium speed with the lowest qpf prog. Fold in the paltriest (potential made up word alert) snow map. Simmer on low heat for 6 hours. If there is still snow shown, cut totals by 50-75% and add a pinch of sun angle, a dash of warm ground temps, and a drop of max diurnal heating, stirring gently. Let cool for another 6 hours. If there is still snow being depicted, cut totals by 25% and serve warm.I will never get sucked in by the NAM again.

That's too complicated, I'll stick with getting sucked in by the NAM.... LolWinter forecasting in the south is very easy. We tend to over-complicate it, but it’s actually quite simplistic.

Eh this one was close and had potential to inch back to the west and give us a sizable event. As you know though for every coastal we score we miss on moreThat's too complicated, I'll stick with getting sucked in by the NAM.... Lol

ton of moisture just offshore inching closer to the SC coast already. dewpoint depressions are so large though (up to 50mb)... so close ...
Bingo ... and see your PM ...I don't think it would have mattered for us or anywhere near us for getting snow other than a few token flakes that perhaps could reach the surface. Do you? Look at St Simons Island. They were 53/34 at noon (wetbulb 47). and are as of 4 PM at 49/43 (wetbulb 47) after 3+ hours of rain. No dynamic cooling of note to this point and they are way above freezing. SAV, with no rain yet, is at 51/33 (wetbulb 45). CHS is at 50/33 (wetbulb 44). They'd cool more, but the air in the lowest few thousand feet would is way too warm imo to get cooled to anywhere near freezing. The missing ingredient? A fresh supply of low level cold enough Arctic air. There are no strong enough highs to significantly help in that area as I've been emphasizing for several days.

welcome to my back yard ...This is going to get just close enough to make me mad.... Not going to make a difference but does seem to be verifying a little W/NW of most guidance
