Wintry January 14-16th storm potential.

Gfs gonna have some fat totals for Huntsville
So which model do you believe?? Heck it almost like pick the model showing the most in your backyard. lol
I figure Huntsville will be putting most of North Alabama of winter storm watches in their morning package.

Starting tomorrow 12z some of the short range models will be coming in good range and will see what happens.
 
Another trend I'm noticing in all guidance is the core of the TPV is trending south each run. This probably partly responsible for some of the south trends seen overall, but could also really change things for further east areas if this could continue.

also not to be a buzzkill but if you're in MS/AL and the nam spit out sleet for you, and you think it's overdoing things... i feel like this meme

seen a lot of forecasts go sour from people not respecting the nam's thermals

Will this make the precip trend further south for the western areas of the southeast?

I honestly think a blend wouldn’t be a bad idea at the moment. Even with a more positive tilt trough the gfs you would think the gfs would still have a larger precip field like the rgem and cmc have. But not apples to apples at H5 . Still being 54 hours plus out so much can go wrong lol . So get out your lucky coin , flip it and call heads or tails

Yea I just thinking the same thing. Kinda strange on how narrow that precip field is. You usually don’t see that much.

As an EMS worker I hear you brother! Amen! Light rain is enough for 10 overturns to go out and wipe out all ambulances and keep us running our tails off all night! Tell em!
 
Oz Ukmet doesnt press futher south like other ops have trended tonight. Sends the front end finger out of TN up into wva,va. Thats the part im chasing now for own back yard. Trying to score scraps. If a coastal gets going or overruning second energy,then its icing on cake
 
With respect to the late-blooming coastal cranking precip back inland, I still say the most important thing is this reverse S shape from Western Canada down to Kansas. Increase the curvature in both arrows and we'll have a sharper wave at the base of the trough <AND> it will arrive later when it is colder

Grit - do you think this trend will continue and that initial band will keep trending south? Not sure if you have any thoughts on the cold press
