    You ninja'd me! Looks like there was some glitch that made the GFS double that storm's snowfall/ sleet totals. The GFS map at weathermodels.com is doing the same thing. The Euro control has 3 lows coming out of the Gulf next starting at day 8. Could be worse. Could be in the bullseye at day 8.

    Looking at all the individual EPS members for the hr 192 deal, probably the best look for a winter threat this season. Now that may not be saying much, but there seemed to be several solutions that favored a system south of us, or some version of OP. Last night, many looked like cutters, but a nice shift IMO.

    I wonder if it is spliting the difference between some Miller As and Bs

    12z EPS seems to want a Apps runner for the 13 - 15th storm, but still a ways yet to go:

    Can we get the below pattern again in Jan and Feb? k plz thx

    Not nearly anything like what Shocker had here in my part of Morgan County, but still getting an occasional flurry south of Wartburg. Temp dropped 3 degrees the last 100 feet of my drive up the plateau on hwy 27.

    After yesterday's thunder saw this: Thunder in November and December was thought to portend a peaceful, fruitful year ahead, sadly no mention of snow, but snow is important for a good year to me, lol. "On November hit bodeth [a] blissfull year"

    This is a fun system for sure. Nice squall line in middle TN now heading this way. Maybe it will surprise with the NW flow tomorrow night too!

    More thunder in Morgan County. Pretty good cell just to my north. Two thunderstorms = two snowfalls, right??? There is a mountain nearby too.

    First official winter observation: Thunder rolling on the plateau. The most thunder I've heard in a while. Some rolling for over a minute. starts about 10 seconds in, would have recorded longer but my wife interrupted my weather geek out Edit, as the storm gets closer, it has the most vivid lightning I've seen while in Morgan county.

    RGEM looks really nice too.

    I think last year's December storm was while the MJO was in 3. Would fit for this year too if one were to materialize. Overall I'm still much happier with the tropical convection situation than last year. I think even the worst case depiction on the Wheeler diagrams only takes it to the end of 3 toward 4. Looks to me like most models want to take it back into the COD. The Euro definitely wants to extend the Pac jet, but also looks like the oft tweeted Sea of Okhotsk/ Kamchatka low that is helping to drive that jet is pumping up a big EPO ridge. Further east that translates to some blocking and maybe forcing some storms further south, just not sold yet that energy can get beneath us. But we have an interesting NWP coincidence where the Euro and GFS have energy in similar places over North America at the a similar time. [The GFS gif begins after the Euro one ends, sorry for any confusion].

    At least in the near term, been pretty nice to see the consistency with the depiction of the NW flow event next Sunday night into Monday AM. Moisture all the way up to 500mb with a nice flow off of Lake Michigan: Gives us this: (Is that a 6" near Blunderstorm?!) Obviously NE and elevation favored, but I'm curious to see if I can get a flurrific band here SW of the Frozen Head mts with this set up. The flow looks a lot like the one that kept me in flurries all day a couple of weeks ago, if I go by that nice image Knoxtron took of the accumulations from that storm: I'm just afraid flow from that direction ain't gonna last too long, so areas that do better with a WNW or NW flow will probably get more bands. Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

    Speaking of long range model flip-flops, just as a hypothetical to add to what tnweathernut posted, happy hour GFv3S brings the long range goods. Obviously it is what it is, not meant to be taken literally, all the necessary caveats, but that is a nice possible look with the energy diving towards the gulf and a stuck 50/50.
  15. Holston_River_Rambler
    0z Euro looked even better for that. Would be a nice atmosphere for setting up Christmas decorations!

    New house came with a creek that shows up when it rains! Some thunder with the cells towards the back of the rain shield:

    Little damp this morning...

    Just when I think the GFS can't surprise me, it does. One of the more bizarre looks for the pattern over North America I've ever seen at the end of its run. Almost like it is trying to set up the same pattern that caused flooding last Feb. but with snow.
  20. Holston_River_Rambler
    Down to 42 now. I've been paying more attention to longer range stuff and today kind of snuck up on me. I was trying to quikcrete some fence posts and hd 9 bags laying outside when it started to rain. Glad it was just a quick shower!
  21. Holston_River_Rambler
    Had a surprise shower this afternoon. Cool, cloudy, NW flow.
  22. Holston_River_Rambler
    Euro weeklies look awful. Hopefully that is an awesome sign!!!! Last year it seemed like reality was the opposite of what they foretold:
  23. Holston_River_Rambler
    And somehow I now have nearly the biggest snowflakes of the event for my location, lol.
  24. Holston_River_Rambler
    Still snowing a bit up here in Morgan County. Hopefully a good sign for later upslope events for my location.
  25. Holston_River_Rambler
    Still peppering down up here on the plateau: Not amounting to anything, but pretty to see!
