Yeah, I was waiting! Anyways guys, we have the Canadian, GEFS, and Euro on board. The Canadian and Euro are running colder, each go. UKMET maybe even colder, but less precip (we know that will change!)
Should you include Dec 29th also or will this be exclusively a Dec 27-28 storm ?

As usual, we will adjust it based on timing as we get closer. Anywhere between the 27th and 29th looks probably.

Here we go could score our 2nd major storm of the year in general for the board

Is there anyway possible NEGa can get cold enough for snow? I love ice but rose bowl lol

Pulling for sleet at this point in ATL. That looks like the best we can hope for here. Really don’t want to contemplate 1.25” of ZR in this city.

For your area, hope the wedge is stronger and the 925 mb level is way colder. I think up here we may border sleet/ZR, or maybe all sleet, but any weaker and we will all be in for a big ice.

Most likely nothing unless your northeast of Atlanta but there could be a few flurries at the onset before the WAA really kicks in aloft if the CAD dome is deeper and more intense than forecast

The nut jobs at TWC put rain/snow for this storm here. LOL
On their nationwide map or their automated local forecast? The local forecast uses raw model data, from the GFS, I think,.

Latest CMC.. widespread ice storm across central Georgia, midlands, and eastern NC.
.LONG TERM /Monday through Saturday/...
Models in close agreement early in the long term but a big
difference toward the end of the week. Moisture begins moving back
into the CWA Tuesday night and Wednesday as a strong 1041ish high
builds over the eastern US. This high digs into the lee side of the
Appalachians and down into GA as a wedge late Thursday and
Thursday night. This is where the models have big differences. The
GFS keeps overrunning to a minimum Thursday night, in fact very
little moisture while the ECMWF spreads abundant moisture into the
CWA along with a warm nose of air overriding the wedge. With such
differences will maintain a consistent forecast in keeping a mix
of rain/snow to north GA with slightly higher pops on Thursday
night. This will definitely need to be watched.

Euro surface temps are way below 0 north of I90 near the source region of the cold air that will spill down east of the Apps for this storm

Good luck to those in NC/SC....We had our snow in AL....now for your ice. I'll take that for a trade off.
