There's our energy rolling down the CA coast. Looks healthy. Is this a situation where it is just now getting sampled beyond satellite level. Am I just full of wishful thinking? I guess we'll know Wednesday morning, lol.- 486 replies

Sorry had to run up to Johnson City just after that Euro post around 1 and just getting back to MoCo: for some reason weathermodels doesn't have the 2m temps for the CMC- 1,666 replies

Even though the Euro OP back off the wave riding the front idea, the EPS still like it to an extent. Only the first 30 members have populated at weathermodels, but several of those still have it. Also, a good NAMing this afternoon for that wave to go with my football watching schedule:- 1,666 replies

Holston_River_Rambler replied to AMZ8990's topic in Tennessee Valley
To be fair, some of the EPS members show a similar system, just not always timed right for snowfall. I think there will be a big storm somewhere in the east during that time frame. Too many models/ runs have been honking the horn on it. I also think it will come up out of the Gulf, but whether it aims to track right at TN, or the Carolinas and whether it will have any cold air or disturbances timed right to phase, all that is not just up in the air, its at the 850 level right now, lol.- 1,666 replies

It is fun: Member 2 says 93 Jr incoming in 8 days, lol! Even the Euro though, has changed from almost what the NAM is showing this AM, to being more like the GFS was a day ago. Interested to see what the above storm actually turns into. Wonder if we can get at least one OP run that looks like member 2. It might break the weather boards!- 1,666 replies

Fall/Winter Banter 2019-2020
Holston_River_Rambler replied to Carvers Gap's topic in Tennessee Valley
I try to say if I see something for even Arkansas, and I think John was at least trying to show how everyone in near I 40 could get a bit of snow. I try to be specific about the eastern vs the greater TN valley, but apologize if I've done anything to annoy anyone in the middle and western forum areas. I know I'm annoyed that we can't get a forum wide slider type storm or even a west to east clipper that gives the whole state 2 - 4. At this point we are relegated to chasing 0.5 - 2 inch post frontal waves....... can't even rely on upslope occassionally after a frontal passage .......sad.- 295 replies

Holston_River_Rambler replied to AMZ8990's topic in Tennessee Valley
Pretty amazing to see how much the whole next 5 - 7 days has changed in modeling over the last 36 hours. 6z GFS is now closer to rain for us all except NW TN and it is more interested in a chunk of energy in the Gulf later on. Also interesting to see how the bigger, second storm, once modeled to come out of the southwest has been pushed east to develop toward the Gulf, over the past several days. I guess it is a symptom of the current wide open Atlantic? Timing becomes everything then, especially this early in the season.- 1,666 replies

Holston_River_Rambler replied to AMZ8990's topic in Tennessee Valley
Interesting battle this AM, as y'all have pointed out. The GFv3S likes the little shortwave riding the front and many members of the 6z GEFS absolutely love the idea: To me, it looks like it depends on a tiny little shortwave riding down the Rockies and phasing with a bit of energy the main trough leaves back in the southwest. Now, not sure exactly how or if the 500mb vorticity can impact the jet, but there is more of a buckling that puts us under the right entrance region of a steak and keeps the lift going while we get moisture from the Gulf: One thing that is interesting about this to me is that the GFS Ensembles still use the old GFS core and can sometimes be less snowy than the new Fv3 that runs as the GFS now, but that is not the case here. Euro keeps the energy more wrapped up in the main trough though, so everything is further north and there's less snow, even though there still is some precip. in the same time frame from some of the same processes: EPS though does offer some hope, and more than I've seen for this event from it:- 1,666 replies

Holston_River_Rambler replied to AMZ8990's topic in Tennessee Valley
For the eye candy, here is EPS member 1: There are several other members that show similars solutions (even the OP and control) with lows coming out of the Gulf, but none show anything as fun or as much snow as the above. I'm not getting my hopes up, but any solution like this would be fun to track just to see lows coming deep out of the Gulf in winter. For posterity and its craziness here is a TN close up of the 6z GFS with the weird snow/sleet glitch: Even with that jacked up glitch there's still a snow hole near Chattanooga, lol.
