I've just come to the sudden reallization that I'm a terrible parent. We had told our son it may snow today. He got up this morning and looked out of his window, then came into our room to dejectedly report "Daddy, all I see is rain." 

I tell you, teaching my son to be a snow lover AND a Gamecock fan while living in the upstate is setting him up for a life of heartache... what am I doing! 

I feel you pain.....

Not sure why all the cliff jumping for some in Upstate SC. WYFF still seems highly confident and has even upped the snow totals in some places. 

Of course, I'm also sitting good being up in TR too. First winter on the good side of I-85! Glad I made that move lol 

 

Chris justus is a model hugging hype artist.  Just sayin.  

I'm gonna need people to start putting a dot on RAH [aka weenieland] for every model they post.  This way the rest of us can: " lol wut?" When they weenie out over a cold rain map

I just want to know if orangeburgwx has tossed a saddle on his deterministic model and rode off into the sunset yet?

Put the genie away until the next storm, our goose is cooked with this one buddy

Hate to break it to you but,  it's cooked for all of 2019 too

Heh, I just vented to the NWS CAE office in a private messege on Facebook for not acknowledging the threat as it stands.

Dude,  you have got to stop.  There is no credible threat to CAE or the surrounding area.  The only threat in SC is GSP.  They're professionals.....  let them do their jobs.

So where the TT shows me getting rain, in actuality it will be a sleetfest for me?

No.  It will be 34-36 for a low in orangeburg sc.  Cold rain for you sir

Oh heck yes!

This weather channel APP hot take didn't age well.......  shows a cold rain now

Just now, Orangeburgwx said:

Not a good start... 

 

Out to 78, HP 1mb weaker and slightly further north...

And now the wheels come off.  This is precisely why you don't hype a snow event in SC 6 days out.   The north/warm trend is always inevitable

As much as I hate to say this, as I’ve lived and gone to school in Columbia, this storm isn’t going to do much for areas south of a line from Clemson to Rock Hill. Now, that could change and we’re way out but it would take seismic changes for anywhere in the midlands to see more than a very slight glaze. 

This is 100% factual.  

Its foolish to expect snow south of GSP even if its modeled in SC.  We get a good snow on average every 5-7 years in the northern midlands , at least over the past 20 years or so.    Buying into a minimal ensemble agreement 6 days out is wishcasting

Nope, I get left out since the snow stops dead on the Orangeburg/Calhoun county line... I come up empty unless the CAD overcomes the model (again)

Hang it up.  Not gonna happen.  This will produce a cold rain for the midlands of SC.  That's always been the case ....central and western NC will get the most winter precipitation,  just like always.  To expect any different is foolish

I think that is still too warm, its going to be colder than that

Care to elaborate on the climatology you're using for this hypothesis?

Am I the only one who thinks the models are over estimating the weaking after it makes landfall

Yep.  It will be a TS at best in SC.

Back to back runs of the EURO with a Hugo redux... It has its' target now the GFS is the chaser,other models are starting to side with the EURO so watch the GFS cave with a Cat 5 Hugo track

You have got to stop with the Hugo comparisons.  Hugo went through the leeward islands north and then west and slammed into Charleston and rocketed west and then north.  If we have learned anything from models runs,  one single one shouldn't be taken as gospel.

I would not mind taking the hit for everyone on this board (have never been in a hurricane)

You can't be 30 years old if you live in orangeburg and and never experienced a hurricane.  You reference hugo so I assumed you lived through it.  I guess not.  Imagine thousands of people losing their homes and plenty losing their lives.  Travel and ride out a CAT 1 if you want to experience it.  Heck I want to do that at the coast but, I dont want to experience another Hugo.... sorry guy.
