Still holding out hope that I still get to at least see some token flakes

One thing I've been noticing on the majority of weather forums, really bad this year especially, with two unproven models. The Icon and the FV3... there is a metric crap ton of "wishful" thinking when some more reliable guidance doesn't show what we want it to.

Just wanted to throw it out there. At this time-frame, remember that ensembles of both the GFS and Euro, and possibly even the Canadian suite are going to handle things better until we get closer....


Chasing operational runs at this point will lead to a lot of anxiety and frustration for many.

That's a great point shawn I definitely agree but I think the main thing with these operational models is that we have to be patient and hope for the best...

Only if you take this all too seriously.

What is FV3? I hate to sound dumb but is that a new weather model?

It's going to replace the GFS soon.

And we're going to find out if it's just as nutty soon as well.

GEFS, better clustering.

Thank you GeorgiaGirl for your reply.

Can I average the snow totals with the 12z model suite?? Please???

That 30 inch total for the FV3 would have me sitting pretty, even if the Euro goose eggs!!!

Wh

where you been, Chuck? We’re riding the GFS 2.0 to the promised land

I’m here for the most important Euro run of our lives! Need that S shift!

This is trending worse and worse for AL and MS.

It’s actually trending much better for extreme northern miss and ala . Central miss and Alabama need more than a wish and a prayer . They need a snow machine

Looks like such a narrow gradient, a fine line between boom or bust.

Still time... I think we still can get a few snow showers out of this, maybe a dusting on elevated surfaces. 1-2in not out of the question yet.

Do they sell snowblowers in NC ?

Either way it's not looking like a major storm in ATL. Certainly nothing like last December. Maybe a minor 1-2" event at best. No biggie.

I would definitely take 1-2 in December. I got 1in last Dec. Fine with me.

0 for Indiana, that’s a guarantee

LOL. It may snow some here this evening and then again on Thurs. Maybe a coating of snow.
