We’ve firmly entered the territory in the main thread where some of us want a memorable storm and others are willing to sacrifice a lamb for a weak solution that nets everyone a dusting-half an inch.
All folks west of I-95 are dangerously teetering towards looking at pictures of an OBX snow. It isn’t just western NC. We’ve got almost 3 full days for this to continue moving in the direction it currently is.
Right where we want it. 18z eps went a little south and east with the heaviest precip. I don’t want the bullseye on the globals until late tomorrow or Monday. I don’t think we’ll see a NW per say, but I think it’ll adjust 50-100 miles NW with time.
Just watch the consistency going forward. I’ve always said that big dogs for western NC don’t pop up or oscillate very much. They bark early and bark louder.
Fwiw, Eric Webb is in the camp that it won’t have much room to come NW like many storms we’re so accustomed to. He believes the block is keeping this thing pressed and we may be starting to see models correct to that solution.
Exhausting stretch of weather. Just hanging in there for now, because I know if it follows our normal pattern, we won’t see rain for about 6 weeks here soon.
