What are the chances the snow starved areas of the Carolinas get to Jan 20th snowless? If we do this place will be unbearable

Not happening. There will be winners and losers within the Carolina’s though.

All of upstate SC is going to be shut out again. I'm just hoping the models warm us way up. We do not need cold and dry.

Ahh yes the classic medium range rug pull. You can't have a good winter pattern without one of those.
In the past it seemed we would start homing in on a storm during the 10-7 day period. Then lose it between 7-5 days, and maybe get it back around day 5. Seems like it happened often. If it was a "real" thing, not sure if it's still real.
And just to think some folks thought that got new rugs for Christmas. The ones that don't slide around.
I see we are in meltdown mode on this Monday morning.

Guess we will find out soon enough
Somebody definitely loosened a lug nut or two on the weenie wagon last night. But anything before Jan 7th had a slim chance to begin with. I am annoyed at the GFS with a rain storm shortly after on what was supposed to be an entrenched Arctic airmass by then. But we'll know by the end of the week if Jan 8th thru the 12th has legs or if the weenie wagon will be on its side in a ditch
It will be interesting to see in there are in fact any more ups from here on out.
Oh there's going to be plenty of eye candy still. 6Z GFS has some. It's just it's going to stay at 240 hrs+. Which is nothing but eye candy even on the ensemble mean that far out. Look at the EPS chewing away at that mean quickly. It's useless too at that range. Get it inside 168 on multiple ops and have ensemble support we have something.
I’ve been putting off insulation getting blown into my attic for a whole year and this means I can blow it off some moreHigh in the mid 40's and lows in the 30's look great for our extreme cold period...maybe I can turn the AC off.
We might even dip below 30F one night.

All ensembles with a beautiful overall pattern still so I'm good. EPS backing down on snow means hurts a little but we'll see what the next couple days holds. I have a hard time believing cold and dry will happen with all the storms showing up in the ensemble members and ops, rain or frozen.
The back and forth with the models can be exhausting. This model has a storm earlier, other model doesn't, but it has a storm a few days later. Then one or the other or both disappear and come back, or it doesn't come back but then has another storm 10 days down the road again.
Just wait till Friday when the models show one last attempt 10 days out during the "cold period," which will only last 5 days max before the blowtorch arrives
Man bump the first system. Our real opportunity comes after.
Welcome aboard! Let us know if you need anything. Today's special is the 12 day snowstorm with highs in the 50s.

Some of yall are better than the content you're putting out on here.

Time to open the windows and let the cool breeze in

How cooked are we? I need a rundown
Game over. Insert a quarter to play again
As good as can be expected...it hadn't snowed here in years and that looks to continue. So it's not getting any worse...
Go ahead and load up on ethanol free we’ve got yardwork to do

Now that's the way to put a positive spin on things. Well done.
Tragic

Your chart is just what has been advertised for days on end now. Run of mill seasonal cold NYD into early next week. Its Jan 6-7 -13 that the real cold shows up. No model has advertised BN temps until we get to early next week onward.High in the mid 40's and lows in the 30's look great for our extreme cold period...maybe I can turn the AC off.
We might even dip below 30F one night.

I just would like to be putting my faith in model hours that don’t start with 2

Bruh, with all the meh patterns you've brought out the snow shovels for, I can't believe you're on the fail train for this one. Or is this double secret reverse phycology? lol.

Silver lining for the win
Get something inside day 10 and we can start break dancing...these ensembles love to spit out day 12+ snow events and are quite good at it. I don't doubt we will see a few days of solid cold...but it's usually cutter...cold...cutter.
It can't cut. Not with that block in place, it can't. No way it cuts into that block!
