Dandridge Dollop 12/24/20 Storm Thread (Winter Wonderland)
Carvers Gap replied to AMZ8990's topic in Tennessee Valley
Think it is slightly too early to be using SREF plums and the NAM right now. Might me right, but looks suspicious....- 847 replies

Have seen little model support for that solution today. Maybe there is some new data which supports that...but the NAM just looks over the top amped.- 847 replies

Just looking at the 500 vort map stuff, looks like the front on the GFS/NAM combo is a lot stronger than most of the other models. It is pulling the storm well west...just not sure how believable that is, but also illustrates just how difficult this is to get right. "Low confidence" has been my phrase all week. Yep...pretty much.- 847 replies

The 0z 12k NAM at 39 is well west of the 18z run. Just looks overly amped - like way over the top stuff. It might be right...but it might not.- 847 replies

Was a hair east of 12z(barely) in both snow axis and slp. Slightly more snow in NE TN is reflected by the shift. Overall, very similar.- 847 replies

Man, the NAM is just amped on that run. Nice run for NE TN in terms of Kuchera totals, but wouldn't trust that model as far as I could throw it at this range! LOL. As tnweathernut said...thunder, lightning, and snow all in the same day. 2020 for ya right there.- 847 replies

I don't think so. I think this is more like the base of that trough forms two waves. One runs up through western NC and then another forms right along the coast. These powerhouse cold fronts have all kinds of energy. Short story...I don't see energy transfer to the coast. Now, there may be some energy transfer from one side of the apps to another at some point, especially further north.- 847 replies

Just browsing the Euro...weak slp pressure forms in east-central Alabama. It moves NNE to extreme NE TN. Meanwhile a very weak area of slp forms near Charleston, SC, and moves along the coast. That feature is not on the GFS which I can find.- 847 replies

I think the potential is there for a big thump for somebody. Timing a strong cold front which is chasing into a line of precip from the West is tough. Ideally, we would want the slp to slow as it forms.- 847 replies

12z operational scorecard: UKMET: NE TN scraper but otherwise a whiff. GFS: Plateau and elevation dependent in TN. Eastern half of KY scores but less than previous runs. Euro: Consistent and beefs up numbers. CMC: Ohio...wow. High end of probability and a bit of an outlier. Trends: Westward jog on GFS and NAM. Others are fairly similar including RGEM.- 847 replies

Remember, new is on the left. 12z GFS operational compared to 6z. Looking back, the GFS "should" have been stronger. Low placement was decent, but precip was lacking once the changeover occurred. That is a legit option.- 847 replies

Side-by-side of 12z and 0z Kuchera amounts. New run is on the left. 6z was a slight improvement from 0z. 12z was a slight improvement from 6z.- 847 replies

Carvers Gap replied to AMZ8990's topic in Tennessee Valley
12z UKMET is well east of the 12z GFS and most models. 12z CMC/GDPS is like right in the middle of the two tracks. There is a westward trend to the 12z suite for sure, but the UKMET slp is quite a bit east. This is not settled I don't think. So the eastern envelope is still a miss to the east for everyone but extreme NE TN. The western envelop is a slp slightly west of the Apps. The eastern envelop is a slop tracking just east of Asheville. UKMET looks too weak FWIW.- 847 replies
