Wintry Jan 15-16 Winter Storm Discussion & Obs

[Jessy89]

I know this should go into banter, but it should be said where everyone can see it. This right here is why Southernwx is awesome. Such an incredible breakdown of what’s going on, the moving parts, etc. freakin awesome how much energy this place has when we have something to track. Appreciate the heck outta y’all.

And to add to this a bit. The reason snow so fun in the south is because it’s hard to get. So the weeks days and hours spent following the models and crossing fingers and toes. And having you guys to discuss it with. Makes snow so much fun snow in the south is just special. Don’t think it be the same if we lived up north although I’d always love snow

EPS looks like it’s about to be good again

Yep. Taller ridge out west

 

[iGRXY]

Definitely going to be good. More ridging out west and more interaction with the TPV and 50/50

850s well south of I20.

Look at the trend with our 50/50 low, it’s a thing of beauty, far colder run

 

[iGRXY]

We’re cooking with grease ladies and gentlemen

850’s down to Florida. This is insane.

 

[Blue_Ridge_Escarpment]

Odd surface reflection tho. Everything else looked better

you can see how flatter the system looks now on the EPS due to perhaps some energy issues/more suppression from the 50/50 low, I don’t care though I’d rather have the cold and flat issues then have the marginal and amped issues

18z EPS Mean is a little deeper with the wave, but it’s still quite flat out front

Lol geez cold air is no issue

 

[iGRXY]

Usually in these setups we’re fighting models that have zero storm and ones that do have one. At least we actually have a potential where a storm seems almost certain but it’s just the difference between a 2-4” enjoyable event and a 6-12” history book type of event.

 

[Blue_Ridge_Escarpment]

Geez, snowing in the teens in the NC mtns.

 

[Ollie Williams]

The snow mean is much more centralized over the SE rather than the MA.

 

[LovingGulfLows]

Personally I think this was a great trend and a step back in the right direction for the Euro.

The 18z eps control run shows how further south into SC/GA can score.

That low pressure is way down there near the gulf coast. Wow.

Cold air not an issue - famous last words here
