Absolutely historic, devastating ice storm on that 00z Euro run for a wide swath of the Southeast. You do not want that verifying.

Bordering PDII levels on that UK run, deeper storm with a long period of heavy snow both in the WAA region and the deformation zone.

And for the knockout punch...

If you want a major storm, you want Tomer Burg talking like this. End of story.

Big west based -NAO with a lot of cold air present usually equals some kind of pay dirt, just uncommon in a Niña.

What in the 2010 hell was that AIFS run?

That is a catastrophic ice storm on the 12z Euro for this region and particularly Atlanta.

Ok but seriously, what in the actual hell happened with that run? -
Nov 28-30th Post Turkey Day Winter Storm

Jackpots of over 16” in central IA and S WI with this, seems like many areas got over 10” by the end of it. -

Looks like the advertised spread the wealth event is coming into fruition. Seems like N IN is doing pretty well compared to expectations, widespread 6-12" elsewhere. -

Des Moines looks like it’s getting hammered. -

18z EPS mean is 10" for the QC even at 10:1 ratios, pretty impressive considering I'd expect the ratios to be better than that through a good chunk of the storm. This will punch above its weight class SLP depth wise given the favorable dynamics aloft and very strong LLJ/WAA minus a lot of strong convection in the warm sector. Height falls look excellent on the 00z GFS. -

HRRR continues to be very impressive, albeit likely overdone. Verbatim would likely mean some pockets of 12-18" over IA and N IL/S WI. -

IIRC that wave had a deepening trend closer to verification as well as the PV lobe became better resolved, I remember having some back and forth with @RCNYILWX about it at the time. The issue this time is that the upstream ridge isn't quite as amplified as that, and there's a bit more phasing required here for a higher end outcome. -

500 mb evolution with this does remind me a good deal of a slightly less impressive version of GHD II. Trough/jet streak matures in a very similar way and the thermos aren't terribly far off from that either. More likely to taper out with eastward extent though. -

Visibility is effectively zero on that Skydeck webcam now. -

Major Hurricane Melissa - 892mb - 185mph Jamaica landfall

Incredible and I mean incredible tree/vegetation damage from Melissa across a large area in this video. There's only a few TCs in recent memory that have produced damage on this scale. -

The damage in this overhead imagery is pretty mind boggling. -

This horrific damage from White House, Jamaica is right up there with the highest end I've seen out of a tropical cyclone. Near 100% structural failure/roof failure here. -

Wait, recon made another turn. They seem to be trying to find a flight path around the strong convection on the east side of the CDO. -

Bombs away with this microwave satellite presentation hot off the press. Very well organized inner core.
