Wintry Machine Learning Mauler 1/30-2/1

Just using the GFS for reference, I can go ahead and tell you this piece of energy that dives in out of the NW is going to be a lot faster than currently modeled. So that’s probably going to collide early with our southern stream wave which will cause more amplification. And let’s also assume our 50/50 will be scooting out quicker than modeled. Good chance this system is amplified and not nearly as suppressed and late as currently modeled. It’s virtually the same playbook again this weekend just happening a skosh further east with less chance to cut

A non zero shot at a triple phaser as well

That amount of energy over New England though….

This seems right. It is looking like a classic miller A, with a snow threat from Alabama through Georgia, the Carolinas, and up the east coast.
 
So now all the sudden you can predict what will happen one week out? Lol what changed between this weekend storm and now? A week out on the last storm, you guys thought it was gonna be a historical snow storm just to end up losing it to the north. I asked what would have to happen for Alabama to become involved
i am sorry to rough up the alabama crew. i respect alabama, i spent mardi gras in mobile a few years ago and had a great time. i mean no harm.

to clear up my opinion on this so far,

1. not one week out, precip for this event starts in 120 hours on the gfs. this is around the range where models turned north for this weekend's event
2. a big east coast hit still requires more trending... despite the big moves on 00z this is still an outer banks special for now. we can't say we've lost this storm because as of now we don't even have it
3. storm today (overrunning over strong high/cad) is different than what we're looking at here (classic coastal). model consensus so far brings the trough going neutral tilt over GA with the low forming off the coast of savannah. this lines up with climatology... the coast of the atlantic is a preferred area for cyclogenesis over the gulf. extrapolate the trend and sure, more westward shifts with the low/precip shield/everything is totally possible. but i don't think it gets to AL.
4. if AL was in the cards i'd want to see some proof of concept on an AI model by now

i really just don't see it for alabama. i feel totally irresponsible saying this but the storm this gives me shades of is jan 2000, with the instant occlusion/mega bomb look off the coast. i feel way more comfortable suggesting this will take more of a north-south precipitation orientation

agreed, there's a few pieces that might make this storm never happen at all if they're misaligned, but overall this has a climo storm for parts of georgia as the furthest west, carolinas written all over it. i agree about the 2000 comparison, i also think it has a mix of various other events..

just not seeing a low getting cranking hard in the gulf right now, maybe the big bend of florida at best, for a weak system that crosses florida and strengthening up the coast

mentioning that storm as a comp feels like yelling bomb in an airport but it's the closest to the instant occlusion/mature cyclone look this has
