12z models are utter ----
Winterstorming! Up to 50 with NE winds and heavy rain and thunder.
Clipper getting into NAM range! Telling y’all, NAM has been pretty good, imo! Looks robust
Lol none of this stuff even remotely showing up on models. Maybe we can pull off a miracle with this legendary arctic front.. 
Mountains would just eat it up wouldn’t it?

Quite a few lightning strikes in the coastal plain of NC

I'm down to hoping that Friday morning through the early afternoon is one of those days where even the little bitty ole cumulus clouds roll on by and a few snowflakes follow in the sunshine five minutes later here.
Thinking about the OBX and sound effect tomorrow, Pamlico Sound is currently at 51 degrees. For lake effect, the general rule of thumb is your 850 level temps need to be 23 degrees colder than surface. That should make it easy to do in the areas to the east of the Pamlico Sound. Albemarle is a bit tougher as it is at 46 degrees today but also should be doable.
Yessir, most likely.

This type of cold air is definitely going to wring out every drop of moisture in the atmosphere. I’ve seen many times when we weren’t forecast to get snow with the initial front only to have flurries fall throughout the next day.
GSP mentioning wind chills as low as -5 here in the upstate. #NatGas

That‘s awesome. I’d take that all day based on what the models were showing last night for that area. With 1-2 inches forecasted here I might have enough snow on the ground for an official white Christmas. It would be the first white Christmas here since 2010!About what I expected here honestly. Dusting maybe an inch at best the cold and wind is still the bigger story. Was hoping the models were too far north with that snow squall near the Kansas border but no such luck apparently. Oh well we could have easily blanked too with the horrible trends the last couple days
Past experience tells me that with an air mass this cold that moisture will be squeezed out with some flurries. Not expecting much, if anything. I remember 1983 and 1989. I don’t remember such a dramatic front and drop here in Georgia. I may stay up just to watch that … more so than any flurries squeezed out.
Good luck to all!
Good luck to all!

Probably be some streamers off Kerr lake tomorrow if the angle is right, and I fully expect the Tar/Pamlico to blow out bigtime....will be fun to watch these cams and see if the river dumps out....

All this bone chilling cold coming up and no snow to show for it. ?

RAP shows much of the upstate getting down to 3-5 degrees Sat morning with wind chills as low as -16. I wonder if GSP will have to adjust?

This is just insane. Like between this and February 2021 I am good going back to snows when it's 25-32 degrees ?
