Wintry December 4-7 Winter Precip Chance

Looks like there was about to be a 3 way, triple phaser!
 
There a chance that the upstate see fall or is this just a mountain storm

Slight chance I’d say where grasping for straws. But if rates are heavy enough few flakes in upstate is possible. But right now this system is all over the place

I think people need to realize that in this case, the more NW and wound up the colder this storm gets. It can both pull more northerly winds south as well as cause more lift and cool the column faster with more precip. Also, this causes the trough axis to tilt more northward rather than the entire trough to go west, so this storm can really only go so far NW. temps will still be razor thin in the Piedmont areas as they almost always are, but I like the trends today.
 
I've chased twice already within the past month and I'm looking for number 3. Went from chasing a ice storm to a flizzard now on to the next one.

Why not just wait until a snowstorm comes to you ? I'm sure Southern Alabama will have plenty of chances this winter :)
 
Hard to imagine everyone is getting rained on with this look. But verbatim that is mostly the case..View attachment 55512

Yeah temps seem pretty good actually its more a QPF issue.....how much moisture is left after we get cold enough to flip to snow.....at the surface it will always be marginal....but aloft its all snow down to 925 and lower....
