December/January 2019/20 Winter Speculation Thread

Yep. Through 57 hrs the frozen line is a good 80 miles north of the 18z frozen line. Typical luck.- 1,666 replies

NAM coming in stronger but warmer for the midweek system. Won't be surprised if it shows all rain south of Kentucky this time.- 1,666 replies

Day 10 on the Euro, deep trough in the SW, eastern ridge. Mostly AN to well AN. No snow outside the NC high elevation border areas. Just can't seem to reel anything in at this point. Winter of 1993 was awful like this. A trace of snow all winter until February 25th-26th when we got 4 inches. Then of course the blizzard hit and made it one of the most memorable winters in history from the Plateau eastward. But most winters that go this poorly never recover in any significantly wintery way.- 1,666 replies

GFS has lost its mind late run. Appears to have a major coastal low coming out of the gulf and a very strong cutter in Arkansas at the same time. Never even seen that from a model before, let alone reality.- 1,666 replies

Played pretty well considering. Had Azabuike not been allowed to commit about 40 fouls we might have even won the game.

If we don't actually start reeling something into the d7 or less range soon, just have to assume its another headfake. Meanwhile I'm forecast to get to 28 tonight. 31 I think Wednesday night and not be below freezing otherwise the rest of the week. My normals this time of year are 42-21. Those were old normals though. It's like the earth tilted and we all live 100-150 miles south of where we did a few years ago.- 1,666 replies

Winters have become like this Kansas game. It goes okay early and you get excited. Then it just inevitably grinds you down.

Mostly bleh runs at 0z. GFS tosses some 1 in a 1000 stuff at 300+. We have about 35-40 days left of true winter chances. If it doesn't improve this is easily the least snowy 4 year stretch in the last 90 years at least imby and most of the snow I've seen has been in spring.- 1,666 replies

There's a few good members for everyone. Parts of the forum have at least some snow on every member. There's even the obligatory Knox County snow hole on Member 13.- 1,666 replies

The GEFS has, not surprisingly, a strong mean, especially over the eastern 2/3rds of the region. 3+ inch line dips into Northern Alabama.- 1,666 replies

Several MJO forecasts are starting to see 8-1-2-3 in the COD as possibilities. GaWx pointed out that Atlanta was an average of 3 degrees colder when the MJO went through these phases in the COD vs at higher amplitude. The Australian model that runs through March 1st sends the MJO into the COD on the 8-1-2-3 area and stops it just before 4 and loops it back into 3. The GEFS goes 1-2-3 in the COD. When February 2015 turned brutally cold, especially for the 2nd half of the month through March 7th or so, the MJO was in the COD in those areas or in the very center.- 1,666 replies

It's very likely we don't see anything close to it again. It's one of the few paths towards snow for any of us with the marginal cold. Normally that storm in January or February would be golden. But the models are throwing out these storms and the results are what you'd normally seen in March or even April with great tracks but cold rain and elevated snow.- 1,666 replies

I just noticed how especially cruel to Knox County specifically that it is. That said, I would have to think we would do a little better outside elevated areas with that kind of monster taking that path East of the Apps.- 1,666 replies

Phasing bomb on the Euro. Sadly too late and too warm for most Valley locations but SWVa and the mountains get to measure in feet. 3-6 on the Eastern Rim, Plateau and more in far NETN. Every one else looks like rain. It would be an all time eastern valley screw job if it went like the Euro is depicting with snow just south of Chattanooga but rain from Chatty to just NE of Morristown. When a monster phases like that and bombs to our southeast and East and its raining and in the 40s, it's tough to swallow.- 1,666 replies

No kidding. I could probably go back and look at the last two winters and days with snow actually falling and see that March and April had more days of it than January.- 1,666 replies

I just can't buy into it any more regarding the long range. This is been the winter of mythical blocking day 8-16 but it has failed every time. I will hope it's correct this time if for no other reason that it virtually always gets cold 10-15 days after the MJO moves into 7.- 1,666 replies

Waiting on the GEFS MJO forecast. It's been quickly looping into the COD and going back into the COD phase 8. Which is probably why it's been looking so wintry day 8-16. EMOM would basically end winter as it loops the MJO in 5 for the next month.- 1,666 replies

A bit of scattered snow on the GFS and Canadian inside 10 days, especially higher elevations. GFS went off the rails in the long range compared to the past few runs.- 1,666 replies

The 18z GEFS saw the 2 inch mean expanded in the SW valley areas and down into northern Alabama. It's still snowing on it at the end of the run most likely.- 1,666 replies
