Pattern Fab-February 2020 The dark age

00z NAM still really bullish with precip further west than other guidance. I was expecting it to shift East like other guidance.

3k with a shift east..I’m riding the 12k to the grave
I feel like 1-2” is a good bet where I’m at above 4K....5” would be nice though8EBC33B0-854A-4232-8B06-AE786F699DF6.png

the 12k was def nice and the latest HRRR looked good. I’m not a fan of being on the western edge of the precip, but it also wont take much for it to trend more west and be more.

We should hopefully roll in around 3ish tomorrow and I’ll be ready to rock. I’d be very happy with just a nice 1-2 inches, but I’m super nervous about the whole deal.

im trying to decide whether to take the Bham to Atlanta and then through the north Georgia mountains or Bham to Chattanooga to Knoxville. Both are similar lengths, but we just took the Chattanooga to Knoxville route last week to gatlinburg. Not only will the other route be new, but it could be dicey it some of the models are correct.

Folks, until we can get a -EPO and have the ridge go up in Alaska there will be little change in the warm forecasts. Unfortunately the EURO has indicated this will not happen anytime soon. As I said in a post a week or 2 ago, we will get the EPO to flip and the NAO as well in late March or early April when it will do most outside the mountains no good for wintry precipitation. Pray we don't torch excessively until then or else a lot of flowering plants and fruits will get destroyed in late March-April. :confused:

Maple trees already have leaf buds on them. Never have seen that in January in 28 years of doing landscaping
 
Some other 0z short range guidance has joined the NAM for the northern NC foothills and VA border counties north of Winston-Salem/Greensboro for the first time. Doesn’t mean anything tho..
 
Silly RGEM plows the southern VA foothills southwestward to north-east Georgia. Advisory level snows for all NC foothills.
 
Rgem Hrrrr and Nam how often have they showed something similar and been wrong? They have a cold bias now I think elevation above 3500 feet north of Asheville will have snow. Probably 1-3 inches. But it will likely stay above 3500 feet. Lower elevation will see nothing more then flurries.

Going to be more than flurries if the precip rates on the 12k NAM and RGEM are correct.
 
Obviously at the beginning wit a stale artic airmass if you get heavy enough rates, areas north of CLT May see wet snowflakes and perhaps a burst of snow, hrrr/rgem/nam 12km/ nam 3km all agree on close soundings at the start
