  1. Was NOT expecting these type of wind gusts this morning. Power has went off once already and it has to be gusting 45+
  2. The RDPS looks similar to past runs. Maybe a bit more moisture
  3. I'm thinking it's more of a nuisance event for most with little impact on power issues. Possibly some travel issues.
  4. DC and most of the mid Atlantic isn't going to like the NAM model. Things are trending towards an inland low track and snow only in the mountains. It still produces a decent amount of ice for the foothills
  5. One thing I have noticed on basically all the models is this isn't a QPF bomb. Less than .5 for western NC and many places less than .3 Miller B suckiness
  6. Euro looks meh. Warm and light precip. Has a stronger low in the TN Valley and less CAD. That run was not good for wintry precip even DC is rain
  7. The precip doesn't look all that heavy especially for western areas.
  8. I'm hoping for more sleet than ZR here near Marion and thats usually the case here in these setups but thats quite the warm nose
  9. Yea the NAM has temps here in the upper 20s so it would get dicey with ice.
  10. Take it for what its worth but at the end of the 18z nam it does not look impressive with the CAD.
  11. Where's lookout he is very knowledgeable with CAD events
  12. Well the Euro is still the warmest model probably and shows it going over to rain for most
  13. It could start as sleet there for a while too
  14. The UK is starting to look nice too. Some of this would be sleet and ZR
  15. I think the foothills will start out as snow and sleet then switch over. GFS hints at this. Maybe an inch or 2 before switching to ZR
  16. The Blue Ridge escarpment begs to differ. Elevation can make things worse trust me.
  17. Some of this is from the first storm but West Virginia to Central PA turns into snow central. 2 feet lollipops
  18. Euro doesn't quite get it done. Starts off as mix in western NC North of 40 then goes over to rain. Not heavy qpf west of 77 but about .5 for most. The low is too far north even DC goes over to rain
  19. The first wave is trending stronger and stronger for Sunday night/Monday. West Virginia could get over 6 inches in spots and most of Western NC gets 1.5 to 2 inches of rain.
  20. Interesting map, I would have expected the darker blue and white to follow down the eastern slopes of the blue ridge more. I have seen nasty ice storms right along the escarpment and rain in the piedmont plenty of times.
  21. CAD almost always overperforms here, and with the NAO going negative I don't think the high is going to retreat that quickly. Miller B type systems like this are perfect for CAD setups. The coastal low can help funnel the NE winds down and keep the CAD in place
  22. Good to hear. I'm hoping we can get sleet and snow here instead of ZR but usually we get all 3 in these type of setups if the parent high is strong enough.
  23. It will be interesting to see how the NAM handles the CAD once it gets in range since it's usually closest to verification in these setups.
  24. Take with a grain of salt because of the cold bias but I 40 north should be paying this one close attention for ice storm possibilities.
