Pattern Dazzling December

[Oconeexman]

The 18th system has always been more of an N. Ala/N. Ga. hope and a prayer thing. The key player to watch is the Great Lakes vortex's position and orientation. A little further NW opens the door for a little more moisture, but too much and it's just sprinkles.

U can include NW Sc in there. We often get novelty flizzards or a snow/sleet shower out of these. I believe it peaked burrels interest earlier so it peaked mine as well

GFS looking more like the Canadian, always had a feeling it was to fast

Not as good this run honesty , slightly farther SW so far

I like the look of it better so far. Looks better on the Atlantic side and I think it’s going to get blocked up a bit more overall eventually. Let’s see though

Yep it’s sliding under the block from what I see so far

Canadian looks good, tall western ridge and a system digging more, we want more and more digging, imagine. This by itself is good for cold to settle in and perhaps some flurries on the backside, take it south some more and things get a whole lot more interesting

LOL, look at the logjam of isobars as shallow artic air has to pile up and get across the apps

Mega-clipper to unleash the arctic hounds on CMC and GFS

Found a unicorn to chase

Bad angle of cold. It never makes it in time for us. Ever

That would prob lead to some intense upslope for the mountains

Need to head to Myrtle

Its GFS at 10 days out. But most likely we will see a reinforcing shot of Cold air come down at some point. It always has a speed bump to navigate across the NC mtns

GFS was juuuuuuuust a bit outside from a white christmas that run.

Couple Christmas Eve snow showers would be beautiful!

If any storm system has been somewhat consistent, it's that we are going to have some piece of energy flying with the Arctic front... Which will favor areas West of the apps.

Southeast would rely on a coastal low popping off or getting some Gulf moisture in after cold moves in.

Merry Torchmas!

15:1 ratios on the pivotal maps. I can see it.

If we can trend the ridge out west to go further west that would be ideal for us. Would lead to some more than just clipper threats. Ensembles time!
