Fresh arctic air on a fresh, deep snowpack will let those temps bust low.

Powhatan

Guys, if it snows, it's going to stick around and become glacier for at the very LEAST a week. Models are literally projecting high temps barely getting into the 20s after Jan 25

Wow.

00z Euro gets warning level snowfall to I-76 next weekend. Big dog potential for the Mason-Dixon folks.

Steady she goes…for now

.

How often do you see Parkton mesonet site get colder than Bittinger?

I like the maybe lol! We are seeing agreement within 150 hrs so that’s something we all know. Now we have the ironing out part until Wednesday at the earliest! It looks to be a rollercoaster for sure. .

Ukie has it next Sunday with a big hit for many. But it's all alone in the globals.

You know it's going to trend north at some point. We're really sitting good here.

And it's quicker coming in Friday night/Saturday am. Only 5 and a half days out...

AI models have almost a completely different alignment and evolution of hp over the top of this storm. Are they right? IDK. But deterministic modeling is almost uniformly placing more cold hp above or just to the NW of the system whereas the AI models quickly dissipate the hp over and behind the system. Are they right? IDK that either! The 12z Euro jogged south of its 18z run, and is a tick north of its 12z run. Pretty decent agreement w/ the three deterministic models. It is not surprising to see models jog north a bit. However, there remains a risk of suppression w/ this and even at the last minute if those big highs verify to the north and northwest of the storm and can persist longer than AI models depict. Important aspects still to be ironed out, but we are getting closer to a solution - maybe. As of now, we are potentially tracking a strong winter storm which could impact portions of the forum area. Nothing written in stone at this time, but we will see where this goes.

That panel is a thing of beauty from my perspective. Just wow

00z Euro is about 18 hours of light to moderate snow with no temp issues, and on a weekend. It's just beautiful.

Hopefully with 925's like this it will be more sleet than FZR. Not good when Euro has had ice for days and is in lock step with the AI.

I love where we are at this juncture. The cold is almost always slightly over modeled at range. The only true way we get completely burned in this is congrats Carolina’s. I’d take a low that travels up to WV knowing with this antecedent airmass and wedge we’d lay down 6-12” in thumping fashion over to some high impact sleet/zr if that’s what it came to. Let’s reel this one in.

Eventually the whole forum area turns to snow except that sliver in SE TN and N Alabama.

Ouch

20:1 ratios baby

Almost exactly like the AIFS...

132 .

lol Sorry next time I’ll wait for my models to come out Next time tell us it’s a freaking foot lol

Euro is later with cold push and quicker with precip. Massive ice/sleet storm for most

That is kuchera though. Not to say the rates couldn’t be a little higher than 10:1 but like Bob said earlier, it’s pretty rare.
