Maybe ice, but no snow this run. Better though!

Some differences between this time frame (ICON more stout) but geez any wedging and we tap into that deeper cold source View attachment 72683View attachment 72684

Yup! And this time we actually have snowpack to our north. Something that we've been missing since December. Of course this could all turn into a cold rain but I have a sneaking suspicion that this go around that won't be the case.

This run isn’t far off from yesterday’s 12z

Wow

Single digit temperature snowstorm for @Brent and me. Lol

Not often but when it does, it can be brutal pretty far west. At least in the 80's and early 2000's, it used to be.

I remember probably 15 years ago that Birmingham got a small ice storm because of CAD.

That’s a big winter storm on day six gfs for western areas

Still think the CAD areas are in the best position to see something frozen. The GFS is awful at picking up CAD and it is pretty close already.

Looks really good! Will be fun to track if this holds.

Sort of like a prophet huh. Of course, I'm still with hopes for early next week in MBY.

The cold helps but ratios are dependent upon other factors too.

Is it possible to have super cold temps like 0 and still have low ratios under 10 ?

Jesus the gfs is cold AF

This is not only for the CAD areas but looks great for area west of the apps

Can we push that ridge off the west coast further East please ?

 

[Shaggy]

Certainly an improvement but I'd like to see that 1050 high over Iowa.

No, in 2003, Charlotte had a storm where the ratios were 49 to 1.That is the driest snow I have seen. 8.5 niches and you could walk through it without picking up your feet. Used a leaf blower to clean the drive.

I had almost forgotten about that one...that thing was a clipper on steroids!!! Even still those kind of ratios are so rare in the south
