Thanks for making me stare at a gif for 5 minuets
My wife’s parents moved from Jackson, ms here to Tupelo, ms 4 or 5 years ago and they are talking about how they miss the snow, any reason why they are 150 miles south and at least see one or two snows a year that at least dust the ground. We get nothing at all but ever 5 years or so... better location to moisture? It’s depressing, this one hit me hard because it showed the goods so close to the event, to the extreme and then just died, that hurts, i though 2/3 days out you could be set on a event just may move around some but this gives me no trust in any model even right up to the event.
I can’t tell you how many times that even 24-48 hours out that all models had me getting 4 or more inches of snow only to end in Fluries or nothing at all. It’s the south and the further south you are the more likely the heartbreak. The only storm that the models were basically right from start to finish for my area was the January 2016 storm that brought me a foot. The euro constantly showed 6-10 inches run after run from the minute it picked up on the storm and it was pretty accurate for middle Tennessee. But off to the west in places like Memphis the models busted big time. Basically the models will always perform well for some places and always miss in others during most storms.
