Not sure what the ratio of freezing rain and sleet would be in this given scenario but 12z EURO with monster FRZRN totals

Damn.

The totals for metro Atlanta are absolutely bonkers. They gotta pray this is overdone at this point

How much ice for metro ATL? An inch?

I see now....the first slug went SE and some people got excited.   You were fine!  I am setting my expectations for at least 6 inches; more than 12 inches and a 0 degree low would exceed expectations.  But so much can happen in 6 days....long week ahead.

Gonna be a long but very enjoyable week!

NWS in south central TX is hinting at anomalous moisture over our region at the same time that very cold weather is in our area. I may NOT be safe here at all. Anyone in ice accretion regions with this storm please be extremely careful. This storm means serious bisnass.

0.83 inches ice accretion in East Texas. This is one time I am so grateful Austin is such a dry place. No way we get more than one 128th of an inch of ice. We are safe near Austin.

I want this system to phase so bad. You guys have had to wait so long for a decent snow event. I realize clean phases are hard to achieve because of so many moving parts, but that's not stopping me from willing this one into full glorious reality over our entire sub.

I’m up. 200+ new replies. It must be good! Just saw the ens maps - I love where we are sitting right now, and its now <84 hrs where the models are phasing the two streams. 

Earlier tonight the Ukie crushed the Mid Atlantic.

I'm telling you all what you don't want with this storm, and it's this centered over the Atlanta metro via the 00z Euro. Do not be in the ZR swath with this thing.

This system will accrete a lot of ice in ATL. I like where I am for this. Just cold and windy.

Just a couple of observations. After the storm the models are showing a pretty dangerous artic outbreak. Like pipe bursting stuff. That cold is legit. Straight out of the arctic. 

This is also going to be a historic ice storm somewhere in the south. Over an ich of QPF as rain falling into sub 20 degree temps is horrific. I have seen it once before. And it is no joke. 

Just a massive hit to a large part of the country. Historic if it is being modelled accurately. 

I HATE ice storms with a vengeance in Buda.

HOWEVER I will take it IF it will bring DCA 4 feet of pow.

here's pivotal. lotta digital snow, and snow is white!

That's a milkshake froth! It's even better than Mammoth during a 4 foot Sierran Blizzard with 120 mph winds!

What are we talking about here?. 

UKMET absolutely destroyed the Mid Atlantic.

This is no time to be in bed, this is absolutely HISTORIC! We need maps and PBP all night!

That is straight from the Dynamics textbooks 

Everything is right in the world. This is the best time to learn from the Mets. I am waaaaaay beyond happy

No doubt about it. Mid Atlantic is way overdue. You guys are ALL gonnabe completely demolished.

This has the potential to be a pretty significant rug pull...if you don't own a pair you better borrow or buy a pair of big boy undies

This is epic sig material, right here.

Mid Atlantic is gonna get totally demolished.

We've only just begun.

Absolutely so happy to see this in this sub.

6z Euro at 144

Penhook's gonna get demolished

What we need are Mammoth Ski Resort-resolution webcams in N VA. I'd be watching them day and night.

A 4ft BECS?? I can live with that!!

This sub would come ALIVE! Watchin models and getting all excited, I'd be GLUED to this place. Kuchera clown maps would be going crazy showing 85 inches of snow over DCA, they'd be running out of colors.

I almost busted my ass on my own steps.

This, is one thing I don't miss in my getting older years. It was fun laughing at everyone back in Jan 1987 when I was young and spry and walking faster than the slow moving traffic in the heavy snow and sliding around on ice patches while whooping it up.

But today I'd just fall and bust my hip. I used to laugh so much about that stuff in the later 1980s.

AGE, it's catchin' up.

I am GLAD I live south of Austin TX.

BUT - I am pulling for the Mid Atlantic to get a 4 foot BECS.

18z euro nice and amped. Faster too. Snow already falling across much of the area by mid-day Saturday.

 

I am hugging the Euro for rain for south Texas! Nice snow developing for the Mid Atlantic!

We should really keep letting me start the threads, trust me I am completely unbiased. 

You keep starting the threads, SnowenOutThere, we WILL get a snow filled BECS in Feb or March. Or both.

Congratulations to everyone that got snow.

We got down to a frigid 22/15 this morning.
