Wintry February 7-8 Winter storm

Just a heads up but the HRW/ARW all have a big cold bias and shouldn’t be trusted

That was a function of QPF being off.

I thought for that system precip was modeled prettt well? Mets just thought ground temps wouldn’t allow for much with acum?

Expect to see some pics , videos tomorow. The rainforest sweet spot down in SW NC should do well tommorow. Highlands, Cashiers back over to Roseman down to the GA/NC line should jackpot a 3 to 4 inch lollipop.

New winter weather advisory was issued for Cherokee county, Alabama.

The RGEM is not disappointing

There's already moisture over in AL, moving east. I'd expect flurries after midnight as this moisture moves into GA. This is a good sign!

Fox Carolina just said probably a cold rain primarily in the upstate. Go figure

Factors in play were CAA being under modeled , QPF spatially & magnitude (more so I believe), ground temps were more so of a supporting point that Mets used when really the issue at hand was temps & QPF that led to them no forecasting 8-12”.

Wouldnt these totals be winter storm warnig criteria?

Is there any ground truth to that?

We are sitting at 30 in Chastain Park area with onset of precip looking at 9am give or take. Having a hard time believing this will be a rain event around here. But I’ve been burned before.

Yup chilly here in North Buckhead.

Nice to say the RGEM on our side of the trends. Feels like that model continues to trend cooler.

Yes, the moisture is reaching the ground per the radar.

This is a nowcast. Temps will be close. Precip rates may be the deciding factor. IMO NAM isn’t the best inside 24.

Maybe it's finally starting to catch on to colder initial temperatures? Looks like it has snow into the far eastern edges of Alabama.

About to check out a movie at the theatre. Hopefully y’all will continue the good news when I get out
