Sorry, but I don't know what look I'd like ... LOL ... can you point me to the map or model (or the post itself)?
Thanks!

Wow that’s really good. @packfan98 can you happen to pull that for Columbia SC for me. I’m really anxious about the Midlands.
European was very cold. If that Euro run verifies, I may need to get a bigger coat.
You always talk about the midlands but it says you are in Charleston. Is Charleston considered the midlands ?

Truth is how do you even prepare for zero degrees. Never seen that before

I go to College in Charleston but my home is in the Midlands.

Layer up with loose layers of clothes. Best bet is to stay inside.
Coldest temp I've ever experienced is probably about 14 degrees.... man 0 would be something

I experienced 13 last January. Any exposed skin turned numb and painful. I had to dress like an Arctic explorer.

You must be from Miami. I think even Gainesville, FL gets down to 14 every now and then.
I was staying on top of Sugar Mountain one year and it was about -5 with a wind chill in the -20’s. We were spitting on the sliding glass door and it was freezing on contact. Good times
I'm originally from Boone but I don't remember it I was too young, I'm sure I experienced colder than 14 there, but I don't actually recall it.

Well, 8 is the record low for Baton Rouge airport, so I wouldn't be surprised if North Florida had similar numbers. Teens are somewhat rare here. At least below 18.

I have lived most of my life in Western GA west of Atlanta and I would say our coldest temp in an average winter was around 14.

I know I'm one of the younger ones on here (44 years old) but I think folks have forgotten how cold the winter of 84/85 were.

That sounds about right. I think that latitude is the equivalent of north MS and south Arkansas.

My mama and daddy tell me stories about that winter.

Actually had time to go over some weather modeling today, caught up on the last week and 1 /2 of runs and I will venture to say, everyone is about to start seeing some very wild solutions. Yes, Wintry solutions. I wouldn't be surprised to start seeing some "historic" type stuff showing up..
Please don't model chase though. They're going to be back and forth in the atmospheric chaos that the modeling is alluding to. I'd use the ensembles for the overall pattern recognition/temperature (PV stuff) and use the operational runs for 500mb energy and ideas at this point.
The higher resolution operational runs are going to pickup on pieces of energy the lower resolution ensembles will just plain miss out on for their forecast. There's a lot of volatility about to float around and small changes to angles, strength, and speed will greatly affect the way these systems track and develop.
