Not understand the mixing issues here. With a 1031 high should be enough to avoid.

That sounds like the Oconee County Snow Hole. I have no idea why it happens or the reasoning behind it, but it does that in a lot of snowstorms.

We've had many debates over the years about it. My reasoning is immediate downloading spot in SC and lake keowee which is a Duke power lake. At the discharge(mid lake) the water stays near 70 degrees in the heart of winter. Thats just a small part of the lake but surface temps immediately around that area are always at least 3 degrees warmer for about a square mile or so. Which also leads and pretty much borders into Pickens County. When I'd leave work in November at 5am it would be say 27 until I got down the road away from there and it would be 23. Then when you have borderline temp events where 1 degree at 950mb means everything then it comes in to play. I'm at Mcguire nuclear now which sits on lake Norman and I do believe this area close to Huntersville NC experiences the same problem. Again only my opinion

Euro with the goods. View attachment 105022

That looks just like the crazy Euro run from 12z Monday. It also looks like a lot of the GEFS ensemble members.

Interesting out west!

 

[SnowNiner]

Need to transfer to the coast now, it's too high. GET!

 

[Stump]

Seeing salt put on roads already in the Selma/Smithfield, NC areas. A bit early IMO.

That fronto band on the euro is very impressive, with 1-2” per hour snow rates

That’s a classic I-20 north storm. Almost like feb 2014.
