Wintry Machine Learning Mauler 1/30-2/1

NBM 3 run trend, includes most recent run hot off the presses. Cut back a little SW while increasing amounts NE. If we can get WN2 to start ticking west, I'd feel great about this

I'd like to point out how comical it is that we are 84-96 hours from onset, maps are printing huge totals, and we still aren't sure if it is a complete whiff to the east. Combine that with the last weekend and mets have to be nervous about which direction to go with this

Isn't that how it is 90% of the time with winter storm threats here?
 
That surface trough over northeast Georgia is going to produce, big time. It’s pinging too hard on global models… with high ratios, there could be a stationary band of insane totals from that.

We love for that trough to trend over my way a little, lol. Doesn’t look like it’s happening though.

Are you talking about the mesolow that was discussed yesterday in that area? Is it still there, I haven't noticed it.
 
Love the consistent donut hole minima right over my backyard in Pickens county. 😔

It’s perfectly placed in the same spot across all models.
Yeah been seeing that too. That's why I hate trying to rely on an ULL, especially from that direction. It either needs to be coming from SW or we have to get a gulf tap or western upstate is going to be in screw zone.
 
The ULL snow bubble around NC/SC is too reminiscent of Dec 2000. We were all expecting the ULL to pull the precip west and it never happened. It's got to really dig south to make it work and then get that trough axis tilted back.
From what I've heard, the models have improved enough that they should catch the error (from 2000) more easily. At least going right up to the event. But, could this be an issue with the ICON whereas the specific calculations for this setup are still not correct. Of course I'm hoping for that ....
 
The Crazy Nephew has the early TPV extension tilt with the base back in Missouri. The CMC may be another good run.

The base digging back into MO, preferably Kansas, is the key to bombogensis. All you have to watch and it will tell you how things shake out a few frames latter
 
I'm not sure I knew the ICON had an ensemble mean. lol.
sometimes when you're desperate you just click around on different model sites to see what they have. pivotal happens to have icon ens. no idea if they're good. meteorological equivalent to seeing what's in your empty fridge and wondering if sour cream on toast tastes good

Thats a bullseye thats gonna shift east or west in time. Right now its ptsd for us watching everybody else get smoked. I dont think it pans out that way tho because it has most of NE Ga in a precip maximum. If that happens then we should do fine along the savannah river.
 
it was a fair reasonable step in the right direction after misbehaving last night. let's pray the euro camp follows suit.
Agree. I’ll take anything at this point that moves the precip shield W & SW. Flat, weak, east is the concern. Just based on where the TPV wave / western extension of it enters the U.S., we have ‘work’ to do for it to not drop too far east
