Winter Storm Watch now includes ATL metro

Yep. I said before im hanging here until til 0z tonight. Then I'll get hyped for my 2-4" and call it a day.

This is literal wish casting. No model shows anything remotely close to that lol

GFS has been okay on picking up storm signals at range - it had this weekend and the weekend prior. It’s not not worth a look, just don’t trust it with the details.

Its been lesser tier for decades....literally. Happens every storm. Once every 5 years it leads the way once but thats it.

The GFS is definitely the worst of the group, but it’s not lost on me that the Euro and its counterparts were the ones that really got us sucked in to this weekends potential before it went poof.

Elizabeth G on WRAL just posted 3-6 CNC, more to the East

LMFAO....I knew it would start getting busy in here. Wait until tomorrow. It will be very busy. Southern snow storms are just too hard to predict. On a good note, there will be many with some sort of snow. Just not what the clown maps are showing.

If this goes the way, it looks like it might. I’m gonna have to stop equal weighting the GFS with the other globals. It might be time to admit that it’s lesser tier and to stop considering it on the same level. .

This is the Euro snow map I took the closeup screenshot of. .

You had the better idea as my low was 11.

Lots of tequila, little smokies in the crock pot and a cigar in the pocket for when the fat lady sings.

Got the same feeling for Georgetown. Campus is pretty well cleared but all the streets leading in are straight slush.

A lot of people do. When I say "deep winter" I dont just mean the cold. I mean the whole ball of frozen wax. And snow is falling most of the time anyway lol. Theres 7-10" of packed powder on the ground in SE MI plus bitter cold temps (and of course thgose big weenie snow banks). Its the dead of winter so there are winter festivals every weekend (this weekend is the long-standing Plymouth Ice Festival). This pleases kids, skiiers/cross country skiiers, snowboarders, snowmobilers, ice fishermen, and snow weenies of all ages. Sure plenty of people hate it, but a lot of people in MI like winter.

300 hours out for the GFS is equivalent to the year 2100 for the Euro

The WCCB link thats posted in the main thread is basically going with the 0z NAM results that everyone discounted.

Fixed it for you.

If we could make free throws we'd be 18-2 or something close to that.

I don't think we should post the GFS inside 4 days; waste of time.

Yeah... saw several -10 to -15 on the Wungerground map this morning... Record at my house is -19 or -20... can't recall

I think most people can agree to this sentiment but it will never change the fact that people will weenie or deb over specific model results at range. It’s the nature of the game

MCPS is 100% going to be closed tomorrow. The real question is, do they open Monday? lol.

Im in my early 50s and have been taking notes and or keeping records since the mid 80s. I have only seen good snow growth with temps at or below ten degrees once and that was back in an event during Feb 1996. The first part of the storm began with a burst of heavy beautiful feathery dendrites but after a quick 4-5 inches it was back to poor snow growth until it was over and 8 inches lay otg.

It's because on a cellphone you cannot see ones location u have to view their profile. On a laptop it shows location. This is NC, SC, GA, VA
