Said it all day CLT might be ground zero for the West.

Lots of disagreement there. Hopefully something between the 5th-8th.

Temp down to 31° but the snow has pretty much ended except for a few random flurries. What little we jad fall stuck instantly to cars and concrete. Really would like to see about 6 hours of what we had for the short time it was snowing. Sent from my SM-S916U using Tapatalk

You should do well where you are at! You deserve it. Been a long time coming!

Yeah, I’m happy with four plus inches of snow. Wake up in the morning, coffee in hand, get a fire going, open the blinds, and watch the flakes fly.

Im gonna enjoy the snow we got this evening and more on the way by the looks of the radar cause tomorrow isn't looking good if you go by the latest data.

I wouldn’t be so worried about it since the models have been erratic to be kind. But you’ve got meteorologists that I trust that I’ve been saying the same thing and are worried about somebody from the triad to the triangle getting blanked. .

Worse than CJ Stroud

This thread will be remembered.. gotta good feeling about that

Spot on.

While I don’t live in Rocky Mount (NC) anymore, I was there for some epic busts. What was the name of that thread that performed an “autopsy” on one of the more major ones? It listed all the ways that the models were wrong, and laid how we (people in the SE) should prepare to be perpetually disappointed.

At this point... Btw... We might as well just let the storm play out and see what happens.

Just too much blocking across the top, sounds like even mid-month when things change out West we might have issues, but there is some optimism. Tomer Burg @burgwx This is as ripe as weather patterns get for persistent cold and low-latitude snow in the eastern US. Not only is there a western North American ridge, which drives northerly flow advecting frigid air from Canada south into the US, but there is a broad region of high-latitude blocking with a zonally (west-east) oriented corridor of below normal heights. This kind of pattern is more favorable for significantly suppressing the low track to the south and preventing cyclones from cutting too far north, as opposed to -NAO episodes where the negative height anomalies to the south are smaller in scale with a mean trough axis east of the East US. Tomer Burg @burgwx · 2h As we head into mid-February, we'll see the pattern starting to change as the North Pacific troughing that's been locked in place and driving the western North American ridge breaks down. This will support troughing in the West Coast - perhaps finally breaking the prolonged Rockies snow drought - but what happens farther to the east is a big wild card. Typically, western US troughs mean eastern US ridging - but with strong Greenland blocking persisting with lingering antecedent airmass, the large-scale pattern may favor another cross-county winter storm if this signal persists and subtropical Pacific moisture advected into the US overruns an already suppressed baroclinic zone over the eastern half of the US.

They all had Wake at 6-10 this morning.

That’s how it started here. It didn’t really even look like snow at first almost like the air was dusty. .

So the building consensus is Wake gets nothing?

My goodness NAM is all over the place

Becoming clear greenville, Pickens, and oconee counties in SC upstate are in a storm minima area; and Charlotte is in the bullseye once again.

Dang guys slow down. We're just at a dusting here but finally picking up.

6/-6 here

Flakes are really small, but enough for a dusting to have started on the truck and roof.

January goes down as the least snowiest month of the 25-26 winter (so far) here. November was the snowiest. Damn wind drifted what little snow we had leaving large patchy areas. My backyard is protected by trees, shrubs, and a fence so it looks much nicer than the south-facing front lawn where the wind has free reign.

Every global and short model has us over 6, if not more. I’m loving this!

Im gonna ask ONE MORE TIME. Please if you are posting models, can you post the map for the entire Southeast. I live just off the left side of all these clown maps being posted, and in this event we are on the western edge of the precip shield. I'd like to SEE how and where the models think some of these bands may set up on the western edges. i know they arent 100% accurate, but seeing that modeled gives us a better feel for the possibility we may see some snow. For the last week, the maps getting posted mostly show SC/NC/VA. There are a bunch of us who are in or just south of ATL and these maps are useless for us. I come here for the expertise, the experience, and the maps/models which I dont have access to. Hope you guys can help a fellow weenie out. TIA!

I’m definitely locked in! 2-4” was my original forecast 3 days ago and I am sticking with that and like the chances of that verifying. .
