Pattern Jan 2025 Powered by Rheem AC

The trend we want is to bury that southern wave, keep it clean at least till it’s around the SE, raise heights around the GLs, and slow down the SE can vortex View attachment 157844
We get another small jump like this in those directions and we will be looking at an all snow event with surface temps in the upper 20s, we were very close to holding on to a classic CAD event rooted in to some very cold air up north on that run.
 
Fair. I’ve liked the Jan 6-7 period more than the rest of the beginning of the month for a while now.

I’d love to see this kind of storm appear again or some type of overrunning event after mid month when the cold air has been very well entrenched
Glad to see you’re warming up to this period. I’ve been saying 1/3 - 1/6 for like 10 days now was our first window to watch.
 
And it is for the most part, especially for this Jan 3-4th system you have been hyping up for several days plus.
I have said 1/3 - 1/6 the entire time. You said week two. To the point of dishonestly trying to misconstrue the ensembles and you know it. Now you’re trying to save face.

Oh man, there’s only some potential for some of the strongest cold air in years, if not decades to impact NC during that following week, even without snow cover. Not to mention the signal for snow is still larger than it is during this coming period. I am simply flabbergasted at the error of my ways
 
I hope the plumbers are ready (they're not)

Hubby works HVAC for a hospital… with a bunch of old.. I mean old!!! Equipment!! They don’t like for him to get overtime..but unless models change drastically.. he’s heading for a rough week next week!! Numerous other small buildings nearby he also has to serve including a hospice. They normally prioritize.. but this is definitely going to present a challenge..

I’ve also been keenly aware that week two was better. I just didn’t dismiss the first opportunity. Live and learn!

I’m just inherently choosy/picky and I’d rather focus my energy on the potential for a bigger fish 🐟. Granted week 2 doesn’t look as amazing in the snow department as it did just a few days ago.
 
Hi all! With the blessing of @SD, I'm gonna put together an updated SouthernWX member map over the coming days that will be available for all to view during the upcoming pattern. It'll have a default view over the Southeast US, but anyone is eligible! There will be a dedicated thread shortly, but if you'd like to be added, just fill out this quick form and you'll be added within 12-24 hours. Should take 30 seconds tops.

Happy snow hunting! ❄️ Please don't clog the thread with your locations in reply to this either.

There’s really no reason to ignore the initial period as it 1) sets the stage for the next period and 2) there’s a -NAO in place with Arctic air nearby - that’s better than we do 99% of the time. Bird in hand and such…
