Look how the Cad HP times better sliding into place and also futher south/ PA area

oh boy!! We really starting to join in on the fun here in AL

its the nam thermals at 84hr, dont sweat it. ill really start worrying about temps inside 48hrs. the takeaway should be our positive trends we saw this run esp in the first 54hrs or so.

Especially the improved change with temps that occurred in the Nams temp wheelhouse of around and under Hr54

I don't man. If I've learned anything, it doesn't matter what hour away it is. If the NAM shows warm nose, there will be one.

Holy Moly..... I-20 up to Northern Counties<Atlanta<All points East to Carolinas Crushed by Ice and then everyone thru AL into Georgia gets nailed with healthy 2-4 inches of snow as backside comes thru....That's lights out for half of GA

And, the backside snow isn't done with Georgia by 84 hours either. Cash me in!

Not gonna take much more shifts like that for snow for a lot of areas.

nam 3k at 60 fwiw

Unfortunately now that it’s sampled I bet it doesn’t change much from here.

Raging WAA on the NAM despite the more southern track. Not really surprising, but also it's in the 69-84 Hour time frame were talking about. I believe mixing is unavoidable, but I also think that as we get closer (if the track remains more south) the 40/85 corridor north and west may see more snow/sleet than frzr IMHO.

 

[Metwannabe]

Mercy look how far west those IP totals are getting, gonna cut down on snow accums big time (if correct)

we have seen plenty of massive changes before within 24 hrs, this is still 84hrs out.

 

[thunderwolf]

On the NAM, the high is moving east too quickly to keep the cold air entrenched with the amount of WAA expected ahead of the low which is why you are seeing freezing rain/sleet instead of snow.

 

[Arcc]

That track is classic across most of central MS, AL, GA if you want to see 2-5” on the backside with that track of the 500mb low.

Taking the Nams temp profiles serious whether it shows warm or cold beyond really Hr48 is not a good idea lol

 

[ATLwxfan]

Pause for a minute and consider this: If this is closer to the ultimate solution then there was absolute validity to prioritizing what we saw on the global ensembles 48 hours ago. Just remember this when the next storm comes around.

Sheesh doesn’t matter if we turn to all rain at some point. After already dropping .25-.5 inches of freezing rain on top of a healthy layer of sleet … rip power for most of central NC

Chattanooga sat in the perfect spot on that run! That's the definition of getting NAM'd!!

 

[WxGSO]

Favorable trend on the NAM for a board wide event. With the amount of dry air in the Carolinas, I would bet there would be a better front end snow than shown.
