Wintry Machine Learning Mauler 1/30-2/1

Notice he went with the most northerly map looks. Who knows, he's maybe more right than wrong.
Im curious what his thoughts were during January 2025. I believe it’s just built into his programming. He’s a weenie like the rest of us. Did he think that gulf coast blizzard was coming north last year?
 
The latest 06z WeatherNext Ens run was without a doubt the best one I've seen for the eastern / northeastern areas of the forum. The EPS and WNext are quite similar with the storm right now.....but where do we trend??

06z WeatherNext run…

That would probably be a 4 to 6 inch snow for ne ga and the upstate when taking ratios into consideration
 
Crazy high end setup with what is modeled currently. I've got some concerns about the evolution Dec 00 type outcome sticks out or just a general not enough blocking so this gradually leaks north on models. But the high end potential makes chasing this one worth it for years if it hits
 
EPS SLP trend:
Go NW young man as usual. ATL’s best bet would have been a W trend to well out into the Gulf rather than NW, which favors areas to ATL’s northeast. But W trends aren’t what usually happens. (Thus, at this point, I don’t expect to be making a trip to ATL to be there this weekend). And if this keeps correcting too far NW, more of NC will be left out of anything significant:

Euro bomba. I’d say another thing we need to be careful is we don’t trend the closed off H5 vort to far north. But wow View attachment 189361
The closed off low should really be much, much further east and south. Barring that I'd be okay if this low just drifted west towards TN & KY
 
6z WeatherNext snowfall probability thresholds.

WeatherNext is clearly a little under dispersed, but considering the run-to-run consistency and the track record, this is very high confidence from the model.

That footprint is absolutely classic, and you love to see it. This setup though seems to favor the Raleigh area however as the storm is still so far off the coast on the Google IMO. I have my doubts we get that much with it so far east. I know west trending eventually gets you in trouble, but for 77 and west I'd love to see a couple more ticks west.

Since this is a Miller A, it's likely not going to run west to east along the gulf which are my favorite storms, but hopefully we can get the qpf starting at least in GA and run NE.

Someone said even if the low is further east we’d still do fairly well in the western Carolina’s with the northern energy

Grit, question--the orientation of this coastal NE->SW on its snow print looks kind of odd to me for storms that tend to form and move up the coast. What do you think is going on there?
The regular Euro is dropping the closed upper low, slowing it down in the base of the trough, and working it toward negative tilt quicker than any of the op / ensemble runs I believe. The Euro is probably on the western side of the EPS solutions in terms of it riding up the coast as a noreaster. The WNext and EPS show more of the snow footprint there for typical storms that have a more focused hit in parts of the SE and Southern Mid-Atlantic. Either is possible here

I encourage you to read closely the maps @bouncycorn just posted literally 3 posts before yours, 20 mins ago, and see if you can answer your own question. If you’re not sure where Atlanta is without labels, can pull up a county map on Google. Really helpful when reading weather maps to find your own county.
Can the mods make a rule that, in order to post, a person must be able to at least identify their home county on a map? It would save a lot of aggravation.
 
One good thing... if this lobe keeps trending West... we get the gulf much more involved for Friday night. So even if the 5h low cuts off much further north... we are potentially still getting hit hard on the front end from this.

Just saying it's a way we score, even if we ultimately lose the cut off to our north.
