If you take the 18z GFS temp anomolies as “gospel” then things start to look doable beyond hour 180. And even through the worst of it, I don’t consider 60 a blowtorch winter day. I’ve seen much worse. I’d like to make a run at 80 before this melting pot heads for the other side of the hemisphere
Yep I keep seeing chatter about "record for lowest freezes for KATL", no freezing temps, and then the models don't look that bad temperature wise past a certain timeperiod. I even decided to count the freezes so far for the official station near me out of curiosity and it was 10-12, although most of it was in November-mid December.
Although the FV3 doesn't go into the ice box until later in the run and frankly with the recent verification scores and the struggle with the MJO, it's hard to trust that either.
ETA: Although I will say, with this warm spell lasting for a while longer and a lot of rain, I feel like we are going to see more blooming, and we'll get cold again for sure and kill some of those plants.
