Pattern December, Make analogs relevant again

Interesting, if you watch DT's latest video... he explains why a big snowstorm for MA and New England won't happen.. dude may be an ass, but his pattern recognition is second to none.
 
Gfs is all over the place, who knows what will happen. Really.

JB has been talking about this for over 2 weeks. DT is always behind him. Been listening to both for years. Both are interesting to listen to
 
I'll be honest and let you know that CAD does not effect all the way down to ATL like it does the Carolinas and NE GA. With that said, the GFS temps are incorrect for all of us. Ignore the ptype maps, and that sounding. The Canadian makes more sense temperature wise.

It really depends on the strength of the CAD. I brought up about January 2005 last night. We started off in the mid 30s with sleet and spent most of that event in the mid to upper 20s. However, even a weak CAD definitely affects the immediate Atlanta metro area. It doesn't always guarantee wintry precipitation here, but the likelihood is very high. It doesn't even have to be the Winter season, I can't count the number of times CAD has saved Atlanta's butt a lot in severe weather outbreaks also.

EDIT: I think the HP in the January 2005 ice storm was only in the 1020s or 1030. If we have a 1030 or higher HP anchored to our NE, it'll most likely get the job done down here. Anyone know a good website to find archived surface analysis maps from that month/year. It was an end of the month storm, I think around 28th-29th. I know it started on a Friday afternoon and went through all of Saturday.

That 10 day-ish system has been showing up fairly consistently on the GFS anyway! That looks like a classic 80s snowstorm for a good many people on the board!!

this page has some maps, if you can make sense out of them... http://www4.ncsu.edu/~nwsfo/storage/cases/20050119/
 
Yeah the eps has many amped warm waves which is why the mean went way down.

00z vs 12z yesterday
