Pattern December - Deal or No Deal?

Thanks FV3 for the realistic run! All we need is that south trend which is still possible.

Normally I would say that there is a chance that this thing cuts. However, I am having a hard time believing it with the predicted set-up. Now, if that high in the mid-west is weak or late to the party, then yes it will cut up in the weakness of the ridge. Just as a tropical storm will do in the warm season. Best advice is to watch this thing for now and note the ensemble trends.
Yep, ensembles are key at this point anyway. We’re still too far away to be too excited or worried anyway. Nice to be talking about something this early.
 
FV3 crushes 3/4 of NC. Really hard not to get excited seeing that and what the Euro showed earlier, and how good the ensembles looked, too. GFS op seems to be the outlier right now.
 
Your right, that is a clown map and that's alot of ice

If you look at the 850mb temps and surface temps. at 12z Sunday (next Sunday,) on the FV3. The precip could be all snow or sleet, or could be a mixture of both for some areas. I noticed that the FV3 don't depict p. types well. This is why it's always good to manually view the temp maps.
 
There’s got to be a bug in the FV-3 snow map. Most of the snow maps depict ice as snow, we get that. But the FV-3 shows rain as snow. That’s really bad.
I do not understand all the modern day technology and they can't program a model to show an accurate frozen precip map
