Wintry Winter Storm Dec 7-10

Here is the 12Z mean.

Versus 6Z mean. Better for GA, worse for the Carolinas and Mid Atl.

I-85 Special???

Yeah a canonical piedmont gradient induced by a Miller A is a plausible solution, but I have a little hope for a bullseye over the US1 or HWY 64 corridor in/around RDU considering that most of these RDU crush jobs come during cold neutral ENSO or La Nina events... Although we haven't seen one of these (to my knowledge) in December in a -ENSO event, I think we can change that esp since there's already been at least one in November... If we were ever going to see RDU get the brunt of a winter storm, this is the right ENSO background to do it

13 members showing snow here, and looks like more big dogs included. Wonder if this is going to be an all or nothing deal.
 
Guys:
PLEASE keep the "cliff dive", memes, one line comments, etc to the banter thread. I've had to delete several posts just now. Thanks.

Also let's keep the "how much for xx posts" to a minimum. Lots of times if you read the previous posts you can find the information you need.
 
I think you get my point lol there's probably a few other examples I haven't seen yet in the historical record but RDU tends to get bullseyed more often when we're in a NINA/-ENSO state

A lot of them look similar to e18 and e20.

Yep lol it's highly unlikely we see anything like that (aside from maybe the January 23-24 1955 event) but still interesting to bring this up nonetheless. I know we're usually heartbroken and even during NINA events we are, but the few times RDU and Wake County hits the jackpot is when we're in a cool neutral-NINA state
