Wintry Jan 30-Feb 2 2021 ❄️ Potential

Not trying to make an imby post but I will be in Hendersonville fri and Saturday. Leave Sunday morning. Please tell me this ice storm comes Sunday after I leave?
Nope sat night it will look like a frozen movie Sun morning. U shud be good on driving though.

How did the 6z euro suite trend? The midatdlantic crew was not happy with it. Looks like they are losing the capture and the big totals for the second part of the storm. Wasn’t sure if the suppression they were talking about helped us any with temps and further south with the world yet weather.

They still look great for a 6-8" event...but you can see it's heavier in central VA now.

Read the GSP Area Forecast Discussion and the WPC discussion snd snow/ice maps

Neither have anything of significance in North Carolina outside of primarily back side NW flow snow in the mountains
 
We haven't had a good one in years. Definitely not buying those amounts of 1.41 of ice. Be nice to have snow then a coating of ice on top
Even if that happened verbatim, 1.41” of QPF wouldn’t translate to anywhere close to 1.41” of freezing rain. Maybe 0.5-0.75”, tops (which is still bad, obviously).
 
I’m going to be kind of angry if Ji gets 18-24”. That’ll just make this winter suck even more.
I'm rooting for it to shift north so that DC is on the cold rain line personally. Wilmington will be in the 60s during this event, I want some of that, please. Much better than a bitter 36-degree rain.
 
Last nights euro is a ?

I can't wait to sit through 33 and rain. Much better than 31 or 32 and rain though
 
12z NAMs coming in now
 
I predict the track of the ice will be exactly the same as the last system, and the several before that. It really just seems to set up that way. I think that some of GSP get ice, NE to GSO. Anybody SW gets fringed.
 
12km Nam is much warmer aloft
 
How is the Nam coming in much colder and warmer?
I know I'm not in NC but the temp on the name has been ticking down degree by degree here. 35 this run vs 37 last night. A couple degrees colder and we could have ice. And it holds the entire event to at that temp.
 
Should we trust Nam with CAD at this point?! it’s the only model here in Roanoke that is giving me significant icing. Not to mention 3km gives weak precip.
 
12k NAM has the 50s just to the east and southeast of me, 20 miles or so. Ouch, sound right though. CAD following the Coastal plain/piedmont border perfectly.
