Thank you. Your right. We need all the help we can get for the I-85 south and north up to the I-40 corridor folks. We just can't catch a break lately. So tough to watch us get missed to the north and to the south this year. Maybe this is the one. Appreciate it buddy.
 
The EPS has quite a significant signal as well for an ice storm… these are some legit high probs already. It’s been overzealous at times this year but this is a legit cold airmass nearby View attachment 168621View attachment 168622View attachment 168623

That was the same vibe I got when looking at the individual CMC members. Several of the members had snow in VA/ice in NC overall.

MOGREPS looks good. No bad vibes for the board to wake up to later this AM View attachment 168630

As of now, looks like a coastal low could be in play and hopefully a miller A style. Maybe by later this weekend, models will narrow things down to where the threats will be.

Ensembles following the operational's lead? I've heard so much this winter that "we need to be following the ensembles at this range" - a time at which the ensemble still showed the storm threat while we lost the operational. In the end, there would be no winter storm and we moved on. 2 things to note here: the ensembles really aren't much better than the operationals at longer range, and maybe it is because the operationals have gotten better at picking things up in the longer range that they haven't in the past. Not completely sold on these thoughts, but they have crossed my mind alot this and previous couple of winters.

The follow up "disturbance" seems like a much cleaner set up to score. Looks absolutely perfect on all the models except it's not strong enough to generate anything, and very little ensemble support. Sigh...

I'm not completely ruling out that thing sharpening up a tad though and coming to life in the next day or two.

I hope for better trends today. We have 7 days for the 20th system. Hard to believe we continue to be so close to a major southeast storm but timing has been awful.
 
Not loving this trend for south of VA (at least the CLT to RDU east corridor).

It's a a fine line between too much and not enough suppression. Definitely going to need the northern stream to drive in at the right time to make this work for a lot of us.

06z EC AI shows how it could work, but it's going to be walking a tight rope to do it.
