Absolutely no run to run variability on the gfs op. Nothing to see here, move along
-
Yesterday at 12z the euro had snow in savannah and today it had ice through North Carolina. Yes it trended better for a winter storm this run but it and it’s ensembles all trended faster and much more northwest and warmer. Would not take much to catch up to the GFS. It’s so early in the game it’s not panic time but another day of this is going to drive up my anxiety
-
Through 18z today there is no way to sugarcoat the trends from either the ops or the ensembles: they were not in our favor
-
If we rain and then get that kinda afterwards it’s going to be a kick in the groin
-
End result of this GFS run is almost identical to the storm that just hit the MA and NE. Almost exact same footprint. Warning signals are going off
-
I remember the frustration. It didn’t switch over until well past dark. It was a weird storm too, temps well into the 20’s and sleeting for hours. It was almost a powdery sleet, if there was such a thing
-
I was living in Greenville at the time for this storm. A lot more sleet than forecast and the changeover took forever but it was a great storm regardless. That was an awesome winter. I think we had 3-4 good events and it was COLD! Snowed in March too that year
-
Good luck western/Virginian folks! Hope you guys cash in. Seems to be trending positively for you all today
-
I was in NE Georgia in Cumming for an ice storm 5-6 years ago and it didn’t get above freezing for two days afterward. I was working for Sawnee EMC at the time and we kept having trees falling in lines we’d just re-hung as the ice wasn’t melting. Trees probably fell for 48 hours straight. Some places up there were in the dark for 10 days. It was bad
-
Long duration overrunning events are my favorite tbh
-
Would be absurd to get a gigantic ice storm then cover everything in deep snow before we go into the freezer for a few days
-
Might have to add this to the archives of most ridiculous freezing rain maps I’ve ever seen. That’s lights out for 90% of the Carolinas
-
Map is too low for NE NC. I was there 2 days after the storm and there was still more than 4 inches easy in the shade after 2 days of melting and compacting
-
Honestly it can’t jinx me bc I’m out of it but someone should start a thread for this weekends storm since so much talk will be focused around next week’s threats. Statements like “Euro coming in more amped” are getting lost in translation as to which threat we’re referring to
-
EURO is a SW VA/foothills/mountains special Should clarify- for this weekend’s system
-
The more progressive solution is the game changer. If this trend continues, expect to see a less amplified system and the 850 line progressing nw. Wouldn’t call this a a NW trend, per se, but more of a weaker system and different setup
-
You may be in a good spot for this weekend. Definitely trending that way
-
In wake county, during a period in which we were more or less guaranteed a below normal stretch with many Mets hinting at pure arctic air, our 850’s do not cool below freezing between Tuesday and and Saturday, February 13
-
You, sir, deserve a permanent front row seat in the whining (winning) thread after the last few years. Rough times down there my friend
-
They lied
-
Your positivity is appreciated but misplaced. No hope here, move along now
-
When ILM needs a cigarette, buckeye is speechless, and both grit and eyewall have something not depressing to say about this winter, something amazing has happened during happy hour. Only thing crazier would be Mack to jump back in this thread
-
I guess the GFS decided to reward us for sacrificing the three systems before
-
Need to save this run for the archives. Agreed, might be the best I’ve ever seen
-
And that is a big dog
