Really interested in seeing the EURO today and see where we are. Folks this thing trended to us around the 150hr. That is likely what is going to happen again because I think the best chance for snow will be around and just after the 20th so this might just be the appetizer
That one has been close for a few days now
I can’t wait for the snow mean to load, these maps look amazing already

Yeap I was 4 at the time on the NC coast. Had heavy thunder-snow with massive drifts of 8ft and over a foot of accumulation.

Now why would you go and mention Mar 1980......I want this thing to be weak and offshore until 24 hrs out, then it can trend to a bigger storm....right now sheared and weak is fine....

This might be the rare winter storm where it's actually better to be east of Atlanta than west.

Might get a rare treat and actually be able to try and figure out ratios better than 10:1, instead of trying to figure out ratios less than 10:1 for a change. That will be refreshing. Lot of little quirks left to iron out at H%. Big picture is there now.

Dang VA with a 6-7” mean!?
Man look, can you just start showing up to me on these maps? Seriously? I mean it’s coming through me and it’s been trending W up my way the last few runs, so we can help track that aspect? I would appreciate that! The more to my west it goes, better for almost everybody down there!

Even on the GFS, this thing ain't far off from being quite a big deal here. 850s are below freezing the entire time. SFC temps are high though. I suspect that can be corrected closer to the event. It's interesting that the warm biased Icon even shows snow for us lol.

Euro looks the same through 51. TPV looks a tad bit stronger.
540 further in SC this run on euro @84

Energy is stronger compared to 0Z diving down. Already closed off over South Dakota.
