EPS surprisingly had some members even in Bham. I know we likely won’t see much, but I’d love a surprise. Precip rates actually looked good on the HRRR with temps in the mid 30s, but rains. UGH

Seems like the NWS is creating a map similar to the 12Z HRRR:
But at 18Z it looks like this:

x axis is time y is individual member ie e(x). Values on the graph is snow liquid equivalent.
Wow looks like a big novelty event coming tomorrow ... so exciting .. unfortunate that this is what is exciting me this winter but let’s be honest we all get excited when we see even a little white flake falling from the sky
Hoping this system can hang tight and move through Charlotte with the same vigor as Georgia

Is gsp not going to put out any advisory for the upstate
Sounds like a big win if you ask me.

FFC finally pulled the trigger. Up to 2 inches with 3 to 4 in the higher elevations. Up to an inch in the metro.

Gsp must be thinking it moves into the upstate to late for any accumulation in upstate

Good to see FFC on-board. I might take a trip up to dahlonega in the morning. Maybe we can salvage winter in north Georgia after all 
Plus with models still somewhat drying things up as they progress into the area they probably don’t believe it warrants anything other than a possible mention of flakes ... would have to see if models increase moisture and move that into the gsb area before they pull any sort of trigger ... of course this all would be now casting which I believe we will have to do as we do with all small and questionable systems
