its funny cause nobody cared about us down here in the ice zones when they were seeing snow and sleet on the runs; now when some of us want rain versus zr, we are considered trolls, while they are angry they may see the zr monster now

I wish there was a way for some of the Carolina folks to get a good snow without areas further south getting a devastating ice storm, but unfortunately it's not possible with this set up so I have to root for the northern trend. Clearly that GFS southern run from earlier was never going to realistically work out. Not wanting to be without power in sub-20 degree temperatures for days.
 
What data are inputted into 18z anyway? All the RAOBs are taken at 12z and 00z so what revelatory piece of information did 18z suddenly get between the more comprehensive atmospheric sampling data ingestion times?
 
I don’t know what to think anymore. Euro just destroyed a lot of the confidence I had in a significant ice storm for all of Atlanta. One more tends like that and this will turn into something that’s just northeast of the city

But I want to see that look stay at 0z. Cause that was a large shift in one run
 
i mean doesn't bamwx get paid to forecast professionally for big time business? maybe they don't model chase after all.

even if this were to occur and continue shifting away, you have to admit the entire idea was preposterous and an anomaly. like, precip in the low 20's and teens, and for that prolonged period of time? with that much consensus and those kind of winter weather amounts? cmon'

could still happen either way though

I had this exact same question... can we toss this completely?
 
Overall trends today have been slightly north. Hopefully this can slow down but we have all seen how this plays out. It’s happened a lot the last few years except for January of last year. It’s hard anymore to get a good snow in the Carolinas.

Yeah, we’re at the point where another 30 mile jump gives me all rain with the model I prefer and one that opened my eyes on Sunday and had me saying uhhh.

Honestly, it’s what’s preferable. Sorry, Carolina folks. I think a lot of the Helene damage tree wise was cut back on, but there are still weakened trees and what not. If the solution that is colder aloft can’t pan out, I’d rather have rain.

That said, I may not go to sleep until the 0z GFS runs.

Edit: and yeah, local media was honking loudly here. They’re probably about to lose even more trust.
