1043 over New England and moisture building from the deep south. Looks like what would be a miller b ice storm in the making for CAD areas
Meh still there but oriented differently. Gets beaten down a little more
Re: December Discussion
Holy hell the 12z gefs is very supportive of a wintry threat the 17th-19th. mainly for Arkansas tenn, and NC . Some members get the cad going for NE georgia

All the snowcover building up north , should help with any wedges and we know the models almost always underestimate the strength anyway

I'm assuming the wintry threat for next weekend is mostly freezing rain. Given the blazing 850s

Speaking for ATL, itself, major ice storms are kind of rare in early to mid Dec. though there was a major one in north ATL in mid Dec. of 2005 and a significant one in early Dec. of 1971. Also, there was a huge sleet storm in mid Dec. of 1917. But though they are far from unheard of, they are pretty rare. They pick up in frequency during the last week of Dec. For example, Christmas has had major ice on three occasions!
For NC/SC/GA major CAD areas in general: here are the dates of major DEC ZR in parts or all of this area just for 1950-2005, alone:
12/3 (ATL got mix of mainly ZR and IP), 12/4-5 (this was 2002...ATL got mix of ZR and R and was no big deal), 12/6, 12/8, 12/14-15 (N ATL got major ZR), 12/20, 12/23 (ATL got mainly light IP/SN instead), 12/25 (ATL got major ZR), 12/25, 12/31 (ATL got mainly SN/IP, not ZR), 12/31

Hey Larry. Have you found there is more ZR in a -EPO vs. -NAO or does that matter? The last ice storm we had at least in my area in 2014 was during a -EPO. It seems that a -NAO helps deliver more snow due to the setup.

For major ATL ZR's: I've never analyzed with regard to EPO. I have found no correlation to monthly -NAO. A monthly -NAO seems to help a little more for SN though even that correlation isn't strong. There MAY be a slight correlation of major ZR to -PDO (not +PDO). But the strongest correlation for major ZR to an index that I've found so far is to a neutral negative ENSO, which we currently have.

Thanks Larry! You are indeed sir, the man
