Wintry Feb. 19-20

I'll be surprised if Euro 0z ends up continuing the southern trend. If it does end up doing so, then I'm honestly just completely lost with what potential this system has.. Overamped favoring TN and the Mid Atlantic? Or more suppressed down south favoring parts of MS, AL, GA, Upstate SC? A lot to figure out over the next 84-96 hours. Starting with 0z Euro and EPS tonight. Overall, with this system; the smallest shifts can drastically change this system entirely.

4 models in a row not looking good for western NC.
Yea I completely agree. People still think our area does the "best outside the mountains" which just isn't true anymore. Starting to think the 🐦 put a curse around here 😂 Really hoping the southern trend didn't start too early and we can amp this up slightly instead of the continuing trend south.

Nah, that’s NE NC into SE VA that’s 1B now

If I'm going to die on model runs, I said earlier need to stop the southward trend so far GFS and ICON has cut my totals in half. Getting a bad feeling about this now, that's why I never get excited anymore until maybe 2 days before event. I feel a big dry slot in the foothills.
Our area has been getting that dry slot to show up on every storm, so was just waiting for first signs.
 
At 23 (As depicted) even though it’s late season wouldn’t that be 12/13 to 1? Ik normally Feb/March is paste bombs at like 6-8/1

10:1 probably still sounds about right there. Probably good lift producing dendrites, but the flakes would rime with warm nosing approaching 0 deg C before going into the near surface cold layer. But 4 days out too so things will change of course with temperatures and mixed precip types
 
If you’re wondering why the storm is a late bloomer, here on the Euro you can see how the positive-tilt and broad-based southern stream wave over the 4 corners sharpens and turns negative tilt as it treks east into the SE states, with some weak phasing from the northern stream diving in

Also, the jet streak over the Mid-Atlantic re-strengthens with curvature, with the lower Mid-Atlantic and Carolinas in the right entrance region of the jet streak (upper level divergence promoting lift).

Now to get more modeling on board

Would an earlier phase back west kick slight negative tilt ?

5 run 24-hr QPF trend of the 00z GEFS has increased esp for central and eastern NC centered around 7pm Wednesday night. Looks similar to the 00z Euro.

Earlier phase would likely lead to more precip, but add warmth aloft, with a north adjustment to storm track. However, we’re probably late in the game here to see big changes associated with stream phasing
