Wintry February 6th-7th

My girlfriend and I are trying to move into a new place this weekend so I don't even want any snow this time. I guess that means it's going to be a blizzard.

And what the GFS doing

18z GFS is more amped than 12z. Looks like snow to rain for NC outside the mountains.

Looks like for the RDU area it drops around a half inch of liquid before changing over. It doesn’t have the potent warm nose above 800 mb the NAM has, which means it’s probably wrong.
 
Sat night storm just keeps looking better and better for Upstate and NC. Much more agreement on winter weather between the models.

Latest model
runs have brought most global models into better agreement with a
more northward/westward track. This means that the possibility of
snow has been reintroduced into our forecast area, especially
towards the Piedmont. Ensemble guidance indicates high probability
of this being a lower impact system. QPF is around 0.10-0.25" for
Saturday night and Sunday morning, and with temperature profiles
indicating the event begins as rain and turns over to snow later
Saturday night, not all of that will be converted to snow.

Given the recent volatile nature deterministic models have displayed
around Saturday night`s weather, generally staying conservative on
this forecast and putting more weight into ensemble/probabilistic
guidance. If the next few runs continue to narrow towards this
northerly solution, then will give them more consideration in future
forecasts. If they continue to flip flop, then will continue to
stick with ensemble guidance.

I am still worried about more NW trend but at least the shifts at 18z have not been huge like at 12z.
