I always hold out hope that sleet can save me from a true freezing rain Ice storm. Over half the members have something wintery. Best chance so far, especially with the cold temperatures afterwards for some staying power that will make any storm more impactful.
Do you have a shot of the 138hr west in the deep south
its still going to be cold but not as cold as modeled with no snow on the ground
Guess I’m going to hold out hope until Friday mid-day runs. The cold is there we just need the moisture.
unfortunatley living in the south its just hard having both the same time
I have a feeling that more GEFS members are going to be showing a CAD set up this run.
think we will do better than that but hey still bout an inch especially for ypu
ICE NEXT WEEK? Lots of questions about the First Alert Weather Day we declared for next week regarding possible winter mischief. Both GFS/Euro guidance shows a shallow layer of frigid arctic air settling in on Monday. As this happens, moisture will start overrunning the state, as a low pressure system takes shape over the Gulf. This could bring a period of winter precipitation and the types would primarily be freezing rain or sleet. There are some big differences in data regarding timing and amount of precipitation. The highly reliable ensemble data keeps the heaviest precipitation south. I wouldn’t cancel any big plans until we get a better handle on the amount of precipitation and timing. However, know we could have impacts and it’s one of the reasons why we’ve declared another First Alert Weather day.
