I would love to see the snow totals go further south

Excellent! I was just looking at the snow maps and the accumulating snow seemed to be lagging a bit behind 0z. How far apart are the GEFS and EPS right now? The snow means line up pretty well.

Back and forth we go. Back up to over half members showing something for the midlands.

It's awesome to see the EPS & GEFS are seeing eye-to-eye on this in general for now, both 12z means are virtually the same in terms of amounts & their distribution.
Well just to be safe I booked a room in banner elk for the weekend. Free cancellation til 1pm Thursday. Might be a good weekend for some snow skiing. Had to do it

I think the East side of the Mountains and Foothills are sitting pretty. Snow mean 10-12 inches on both the EPS and GEFS!
I'm thinking about booking a room in Boone.

Can’t cliff dive yet here from Atlanta since I’m still seeing some members showing wintery solutions for the metro, but we are so so borderline (leaning more so wet than snowy) all things considered that it is hard to remain optimistic

Widespread 1.5 inches of precip on both the EPS and GEFS. A whole lot of something appears to be coming!

They're honestly not that dissimilar, the GEFS has a stronger wave train in the NE Pacific and bigger western North American ridge, EPS has a bigger trough over Atlantic Canada, something to like about both suites.
Wouldn't rule out anything yet for GA both the December storm and the January system had some major changes even at 2-3 days out and ultimately all models where mostly wrong on amounts for Dec storm

Leaning that way, been looking at places to stay.
12z EPS still has the south track for the low. Again, this is why I think the Euro will eventually will project that low on the south track.
Take the family up there and let your little ones see what a real snow looks like !

Can't really complain about this and the following frame on the EPS, only a slight change in the amplitude and timing of the northern & southern stream waves could send us to glory (or disappointment). The southern stream wave speeds up, & flattens or the northern wave off Atlantic Canada slows up a smidge and amplifies that would allow for better high placement (&/or a stronger high).

Based on the EPS and GEFS, you won't need to go to Boone. Upslope areas along the southern mountains will be good enough. Brevard is where I'd look if this is still holding true in a day or two.
Anyone in north Georgia should not cliff dive yet. North Georgia still has a good chance at something significant.

Maybe NE GA. But the rest of North GA ?
