Wintry 1/9-12 Winter Potential Great Dane or Yorkie

I'll say this for the RGEM. It crushed the NAM imby for this last system. The NAM had me with 0 freezing rain. The RGEM .18. I got .2 zr. The RGEM had me going snow/sleet/zr, it nailed that. The NAM had me starting with rain, it missed. That wasn't even a miss at distance for the NAM, it missed 24 hours out. The RGEM has zr deeper into Tennessee than other models and that verified too.

It's handled anything NS related better than the NAM/Globals for my area this season so far as well.

I may have missed your current thoughts somewhere through the pages, but I always enjoy reading a locals perspective to bounce off my own. What is your current thinking out our way along and north of I-20?
Gonna be close . Front end snow/sleet then to freezing rain / then back to.snow on backside . Trends are encouraging for sure . Still need help in the temperature department
 
Interesting that the GFS isn't really changing the track or strength of the coastal low but the snow line moved significantly further south in AL this run. Maybe it's picking up on more dynamic cooling? 850 DP's are bone dry as moisture approaches.
I've been watching that metric, too. -22 degrees at 850 mb right before the precip moves in. Evaporation is going to dramatically cool that column, but as time goes on, it will warm. I need the low to book it to the east so the change over to rain is short and maybe I can catch some snow as the column cools again.
 
I am sure the NWS offices are a bunch of busy bees over these past 24 hours of model runs.... Who knows when it will slow down it keeps trending better and better
 
It still is too far inland for mby but yessir it ticked southeast. Gimme a few more
Yep gotta look at the trend, started out better, ended up about the same but again it was a slight improvement. We will feel tons better as long as the Euro doesn't look like this
