100% chance of chaser traffic jams.

Seems like Sunday could be an opportunity for dryline chasers. A good preseason game to get the equipment ready.

100%. Unless it's snow in the Carolina's then SE is a ghost town. That's ok. It's what they like and I don't think they will even notice if MS and AL and even GA are moved.

Near St Louis in Jefferson County MO. My kids school is having late pickup kids be in the art room this afternoon which is in the basement area. Bright sunshine over the area with rapidly warming temps

Is there an analog to compare this to?

More of a lucky intercept setup than trying to follow any cells.

Surprised this hasn't been brought up yet but it looks like a decent episode of pre season severe for the plains.

Got a WSW from LSX for the I-44 corridor and south. SGF and PAH in on the action too.

Thank you. I'm far more interested in severe than winter weather and the Lakes/OV and Central are the last bastions of severe weather discussion on Am WX. And Saturdays model runs should start painting a clearer picture for Monday.

Just wanted to declare the SE Forum dead as far as severe weather is concerned. Southern VA and the Carolinas should be their own winter obsession forum. I'm happy there are posters in Central that watch and post on these events.

Seen more than 1 forecast mentioning the possibility extending to the mid MS Valley. LSX mentioned the possibility in their morning forecast discussion. Quite a ways away. Interesting to see if/how this shifts in the coming days.

The SE forum is mostly comprised of people in the Carolinas. They'll closely follow a 384hr model predicting a trace of snow in the Piedmont but they have 0 interest in severe. Kind of the same with TN Valley. Just how they are.

Looking at the LSX afternoon disco, they seem to think there could be some potential into SE MO and Southern IL. Very interested to see how the outlooks progress tomorrow and into Tuesday. A few shades of Dec 10 of last year. Hopefully nothing like the destructive results of that outbreak.

I checked the Southeast and TN Valley threads and found a cursory mention in TN Valley. I imagine this thread will be picking up the pace by Monday evening. I hope, anyway.
