I haven't even invested in a model viewing package this year. Maybe I'll get one month for Fab Feb, but there's just been nothing notable this year and I don't really care for viewing two-week progs and MJO forecasts.

Save your money. Winter has grasped for failure at every opportunity.
 
If I get busted again on this weekend threat being 3800 feet up in the mountains of NC with no cold air then I’m gonna loose my mind. 06z gfs had half a foot of snow and now we have no cold air
 
To me....this is how, especially I-20 and south (and the I-85 corridor) can really win at a storm. Over-running storm. Outside of CAD events this, again IMHO, is the BEST way to get a good event.
I live south of 85 most of the time northern Spartanburg will get 5+ in of snow and we'll get about 1-2 and it really sucks how bad the cutoff is here. Here's an example

My towel was already thrown. Everything now on is just a bonus icing on the cake. F- this winter unless we get a blizzard from Alanna to Raleigh west to Boone.
 
Gonna be epic when that Feb 7 storm turns into a 60 degree cutter

The fact people even talk about the GFS past 180 is laughable. It is THE WORST global model by far outside 180 due to the cold bias. CMC is better.

I only looked past 180 on the GFS for a specific storm during the period a few weeks ago when we had a ton of 200-240hr ensemble support. Otherwise you better not even look.

Can we MAYBE make it 5 days with this general look or better? If we can I'm going to need to figure out a way to potentially get myself up to Lincolnton or maybe Greenwood, and both are not trips where other arrangements would be needed. Either an excursion with a friend, lying to my parents, or getting my dad to agree to just drive me (and my mom and the mom would be the hard part).

Edit: Only problem is its nighttime wet snow here. Ugh.

CMC has been absolute ---- this week honking a winter storm or two while the GFS/EURO said no.

It would be funny if last year 85 and south who got shut out, are the ones who score, while the 85 north crew are the ones shut out.

What would be awesome is if the entire SE got a snowstorm!

I-85 is such a loose term. For NC, shut them out and bring the southern I-85 people like us in ATL and N GA into the game too. In a good scenario I'd root for a nice Miller A for my benefit like Dec 2017. Haven't seen snow since that winter.

Yes ATL needs a true Miller A. The guys up north can score multiple ways we can’t. So Miller A or a crazy good front is my thing.

Yeah, my model watching has already slowed down the past week or so. It's going to come to a screeching halt soon....very soon.
We’ll miss you man. Pop in to track some severe with us from time to time. It’s usually pretty lit here in the spring and summer. @Myfrotho704_ brings the noise
