Wintry January 3rd-6th, 2018 Winter Storm The ARCC/Xtreme Weather Special

Radar looks good but nothing coming out of the clouds at ground level around here. NAM and rgem had something reaching ground but I doubt it at this point
 
Boy models did seem to miss the Low Spot a good bit just looking at current ones.... Some have it still in southern Florida probably a good 200+ miles from where it may pop

There is ample moisture streaming in Chris. Surely, you will get precipitation out of it.

Honestly I'm afraid it's right. Radar pretty much confirms that. Maybe there will be some flurries for sure, I thought so too around here as well, but trends don't look promising for our areas
 
12z NAM also (on 12KM) initializes the low at southern FL.....
 
Could it be we just don't know what this storm is going to do, because it defies all conventional wisdom and what we think should happen. Based on past occurrences.

The Nam, just like every model has the dual low idea. Unfortunately, it takes the low that's closest to the coast, diminishes it and the low farther offshore takes over. Every model is showing this. It's hard to believe they can all be wrong at this stage. I guess they can, but it's getting harder to believe. It's just like those Miller Bs that reform and dry slot us. That's not exactly what's happening here (in modelland), but the effect is the same. Precip min inland as the new low takes over offshore.

I'd like to believe that the models are just clueless, but I'm starting to think they are not.

Yep. Negative incoming. Radar = king. None of these globals or even short range matter at this point. Serious talk.

I agree. Everything from here on out is out the door unless it fixes itself. Take what you see in the coming hours and see what happens.

Like they said, if they can't get the placement of the low right to begin with, why would we believe the rest of the runs?
