  1. Nothing is a lock on the east coast unless you live in the Buffalo Southtowns or Tug Hill
  2. Also happy to eat my crow if it comes to fruition but one suite isn’t a trend! Let’s see how tonight shakes out. Still pulling for a SER from hell next month. Two months of cold - I’ve had my fill.
  3. No rivalry for me, I cant compete with a microclimate that quadruples my yearly average on a historically bad season. I’ll always have love for my brethren up the hill. But I do agree - I’m glad we started the foothills thread. We don’t really belong anywhere else because what we root for, rarely works east of us and we can’t relate to flow snow.
  4. Somewhere along that I-85 corridor west of Charlotte is going to get smacked. Almost every model is showing a stout deform band setting up in that area. Shelby might end up being a sweet spot for more than just high school football.
  5. I will say - this fits the typical footprint of a southern slider
  6. Positive note: Euro AI which has been the steady hand so far, ticked up in precip. Widespread 4-6” amounts for NC.
  7. Shout out to Ohio and Indiana for doing better with a southern slider than half of the south!
  8. Winter storm watch hoisted…a good little tease but maybe a glimmer of optimism? I was expecting we’d skip the watch stage and go straight into an advisory.
  9. Said in the disco that amounts likely won’t meet Warning criteria so they’re holding off for now.
  10. I’m genuinely happy for you guys. SW NC, especially the valleys have been in the screw zone for quite some time.
  11. @wncsnow you called this out days ago but the more you look at short range modeling, the more you have to wonder if we’re drier because things are fizzling out or if it’s actually just robust convection near the gulf coast robbing moisture transport
  12. It did indeed. Also nailed this past weekend’s event. It was the only model to show the burst of snow that impacted N NC.
  13. If we’re searching for a win, the GRAF is colder + more moisture
  14. The HRRR absolutely cooked with the 2022 storm. Pretty much the only short range model that jumped on the bandwagon for the front end thump first.
  15. It really is. From the moisture going poof to the thermals. It just has an absolute textbook look for CAD regions at that hour. I can’t recall if I’ve ever seen anything like it. I’ve seen plenty of moisture robbed/mixing issue storms but not with a storm that well organized and thumping that hard just to the west. It used to be that if you saw Ark - upper mid south getting hit that hard, you better get your shovels ready.
  16. Man if I saw this surface map with zero context, I’d say WNC is about to get 6+ .
