Well the good news is that you all have had a Winter storm multiple times the last few Winters. And this will no doubt be one also.All of that guidance is warmer for N AL.
Yeah, I’m not buying that at allDo we really think it gets warm enough for the back side to be rain in the Tennessee valley?
That’s a Miller A all the way. It produces areas of mixed precip, but that can happen with A’s depending on what’s going on in the mid levelsBy the looks of what Fro just posted I guess you could call it a hybrid? The way I look at it it’s close to a Miller A track with a B style transfer
Even we're going for less of an amped solution, I still think the QPF output will trend higher with this one over the east. Given this look at the start. Euro really starts to lose the juice after crossing the MS river. We'll see

I know people in Dallas like itEPS...we like or nah?

I like the changes it showed through hour 84. I think you’ll see those keep translating down the lineEPS...we like or nah?

That looks alarmingly like the Canadian ice map
EPS...we like or nah?

I wonder if we will start to see the amounts grow more eastward like how the UK has it. May take some energy or models picking up on signs but I'd wonder.EPS...we like or nah?

This lines up more with the UKMET and some what the GFS as are as orientation of Frozen stuff but some gave more love to NC then Euro Ensembles doEPS...we like or nah?

The ensembles for Euro really were not that bad and definitely more south with winter stuff so in general a more shifted sign if anythingEuro didn't help GA folks, but that's mostly due to the slightly stronger LP system in the Gulf. Still alot to resolve.
As an aside- the concept of naming winter storms is perhaps one of the most useless things shoved down the throats of the American public in quite sometime.
2-4 inch mean for the I-85 corridor, i can deal with thatEPS...we like or nah?

Thoughts around this could this be modeling datapoint adjustments reflecting the storm that has progressed from last night with snow cap above? Obviously WAA affects and just how the stream comes will have a say in the boundary layers but would be fun to find out if soEuro has been trending colder. I think 2mt are becoming less of a concern View attachment 160376
Yeah if we keep trending that way we can worry more about track than anything else. That alone will determine a tonEuro has been trending colder. I think 2mt are becoming less of a concern View attachment 160376

I haven't had a chance to look at the ensembles yet, but the overall look is better- that, I would agree with. I'm still (and continue to be) more intrigued with how the gulf low will navigate any kind of CAD that sets up. The 12z GFS had a really nice HP system in the NE that ( I would like to think at least), would funnel some more cold air down the apps. It does wobble a little bit from frame to frame, but again, its more than workable.The ensembles for Euro really were not that bad and definitely more south with winter stuff so in general a more shifted sign if anything

I like how this is trending for the southeast. Also snow mean dropping further south is greatTo me it just seems the EPS is increasing the closer you are to the event, further out still not much confidence View attachment 160377
At onset i think I agree. I would definitely not rule out a switchover yet though. Maybe for far northern upstate and favored cad regions of nc, but there’s still too much guidance that either outright flips to rain or gets close to rule out imoEvery model trended towards more liquid for GA/SC/NC at 12z... that's a great sign. I think they all pretty much trended colder both at the surface and mid levels too. All in all, a great 12z cycle. Rain is pretty much out of the equation for upstate, SC and Central,NC.

Okay let’s relax now.It’s wild—it really feels like the winter weather in this storm is just going to completely skip over South Carolina altogether.
