The 12z ICON might’ve literally destroyed the city of Atlanta with that run.

Anyone have the ice map for ICON if that’s a thing?

Hey man we all want the colder scenario and yes placement of the HP is crucial but you have to understand that placement will ultimately depend on the energy out west and how much the northern streams dives south, pushing the eastern synoptics further north. It's not just as simple as "placement of high" is everything. It's been said by several posters now, that HP isn't an unmovable feature, it will strengthen, weaken, adjust south, north, based on where all other upper air features shake out.

is that an ATAT @@?
I'm lucky, cause I have a gas heater but requires electricity to power it on. I also have gas water heater that was installed in July due to the old one breaking due to 7/18 severe tstorm event that took out the power line that feeds this house. Duke had to come here to reset the breaker.

I knew i shouldn’t have gotten excited for this system i feel embarrassed for hyping this up with my coworkers. Until i see a flake fall out of the sky with my bare eyes i’m no longer trusting models that show fantasy snow
Why am I even watching the GFS?
The ICON predicts this to happen in the Southeast:

GFS keeping VA folks in the game. Hate this stupid model. Probably just a blip

What you think vs. reality........its 5-9 degrees warmer at the surface across GA/SC/NC
Keep the southern trend coming! Icon and GFS both seeing a push

Northern trend continues. Eventually GFS will cave to the Euro.
No, it’s not. It’s more like 1-4 degrees warmer. A step in the wrong direction? Perhaps. Low 20s down into CAE during the heart of it.

Man, I’d love to see a graphic of what you’re talking about.

Yeah, it's a bad ice storm for me, but the southern range of where CAD works keeps going tick tick tick warmer.
Only a matter of time before I'm all rain most likely.
It’s a ----* disaster….
Someone please stop the bleeding.. Good lawd man. WHAT ARE YOU DOING
Im manifesting
Now hold on a little bit, let's think about this for a moment. The worst forecast model on the planet is now trending the wrong way, maybe, just maybe this is a good sign.

It’s just trending towards where the ai models are already at. These people who think a big ice storm isn’t coming are way off base

This is mostly an artifact of the Precip start time being delayed by like six hours. During the heart of the storm, it’s more like this.
GFS showing this as rain btw..not even a freezing rain
I personally don't think the circled area would get ZR
You're seeing the correction to a more traditional CAD setup. Sharper cold air damming, not these ridiculous teens and low 20s that have been modeled. You have will have low and mid 20s in the CAD zones of NC, mid and high 20s through upstate SC, mid 30s CAE, and probably a freezing line that sets up anywhere from 75 north of ATL to as far east as 400 or 985 depending on the strength of the CAD.

If its a typical CAD scenario, places like Gwinnett, Forsyth, Hall will be icy while it's mostly rain West of I-75.
lol!!!

In the prime CAD areas it could very well be possible, but in the areas typically on the edge of it, no unless the Euro is wrong at H5 and is over amping the low.

Hmmm. Keeping this in banter where it belongs. Not a met, but listening to the “professionals” here locally, (plus what I can see with my own eyes)…. this thing is trending to all rain for i20 near AGS possibly to near CAE.
It COULD come south and get us… but that’s not the trend as of now…. As I said
