Wintry Dec 8-10th Winter Storm

I think the GFS will be right with track but I think its underestimating the CAD. That's what I think is going to come to fruition based on past CAD situations and models mishandling it.

Yeah, would like to see that 1034 higher, even if it is of banana origin.
 
GFS doesn't have much of a warm nose (don't believe it) so it's more of a rn/sn with less icing

Yeah this taken at face value on the GFS (which is rarely a good idea when it comes to these kinds of setups) is a snow sounding at RDU but I don't feel comfortable with this much veering in the profile and winds screaming at 60 KT from the SSW near 700 hPa. Classic recipe for a very strong, over performing warm nose.

I've seen this movie before...

Who's ready for the HRRR? All this OP inconsistencies are for the birds!

I’d be curious to know the timeline leading up to some of our big ZR events in the early 2000’s here in the upstate. Do they usually evolve from Snow threat to cold rain to ZR as you get closer to game time or is usually modeled well in advance?
