  1. Have picked-up a couple of inches at the house so far.
  2. 18z GFS has five snow events for the sub-forum.
  3. Total 18z GFS snowfall for the sub forum are is probably worth a post if someone has it.
  4. Haven't been watching today as closely as others, has the system trended north or south? Lots of times bowling ball lows tend to jog north at the last minute. Just seems like right now modeling is generally spitting out all kinds of solutions in the general vicinity of western NC, M TN, and E TN.
  5. 0z GFS-Para looked very much like the 18z Euro.
  6. Could be anything from nothing, to lollipops, do a full fledged winter storm. Tough call. Glad I don't have to make it!!!!
  7. Not sure if you all have seen it, but MRX has released some graphics on FB just now.
  8. Just wanted to stop in and say that the the gif work land map sharing in this sub-forum is outstanding.
  9. Seriously...that is a very cold run and supports those who have been talking about the potential for extreme cold.
  10. After looking at the 18z GFS, I think I am just going to keep posting about how warm modeling looks after d13. That approach seems to be working for us this winter.
  11. Webb had some stuff this AM about part of the TPV potentially heading south into the lower 48. Like Jeff said we just don't want it settling into the Rockies. With that said, when I was posting earlier, I didn't realize that the BN heights diving into the nation's mid-section were potentially the TPV. If that is the case, that changes the equation pretty significantly. I am not overly confident in a cold time frame after the 25th, but can definitely see the path to that point for sure if the TPV settles into southern Canada or the Lower 48 and slowly burns itself out.
  12. Yeah, I am pretty much half-a__ing it today in regards to posting. LOL -------> If I had watched the 12z GEPS finish running, I would have noted that it did eventually did double down in its cold. Just looking at the 500 pattern(no anomalies) that block is textbook and barely moving at all on the EPS. If anything it may attempt a full latitude trough in the lower 48. Been a while since we have seen a winter with one of those! So folks maybe need to take my posts with "low confidence" today - heck, maybe you do anyway. If so, you are wise.
  13. I think we can hold the pattern through the 20th, maybe the 25, just based upon the 12z EPS. But eventually, the retrograding ridge into the West will allow ridging to belly underneath the eastern trough. My hope is on the -NAO holding on into early Feb before it fades quickly. Maybe(big maybe) we can survive the MJO orbit with the -NAO in place and then get it into 8, 1, 2 in early February as it fades.
  14. Back to virtual school...reel int some of this, ya'll.
  15. And thanks for throwing-in your input even though the pattern isn't great for your area. Always welcome!
  16. With one week out, still a long way to go...but IF the Euro has that at 0z that may only get stronger and back some westward with time. That is a big storm.
  17. 12z Euro went from no snowstorm for the second storm to basically a huge snowstorm from NE TN to past DC.
  18. Pretty massive change on the 12z Euro as Holston mentioned - massive. SLP jogged about 200 mi west on that run. One more jog, and that gets a lot of people involved.
  19. Been pretty much COD all winter with some slight moves into 4/5. Looks a little more active. Probably going to see a pretty good fight in modeling where the trough is going to want to retrograde as the western ridge retrogrades into the Aleutians. Best we can hope for with that outcome is for part of the PV to drop into the Plains and spread eastward(saw that on the MA...not my material there...maybe snow goose?).
  20. So, it pays to look at the surface. We don't live at 500. The GEPS and GEFS, which look decidedly less inviting at 12z at 500, are still quite cold at the surface as the feed from the Plains is undercutting any SE ridge at 500. So, I may have spoke a hair to soon. I do think the trough will retrograde west. Almost all Weeklies stuff is showing that and that look is around 300 hours on ensembles. That said, IF the trough sets up shop over Montana...we could still see cold air bleed eastward to the Apps. INDEED, verbatim that is a great pattern for middle and west TN. MJO is not a good look though...that hasn't changed.
  21. Agree. I am not yet convinced MBY in NE TN sees much. Models are just all over the place. And yeah, the NW trend with this block will be tougher. For that to happen, really need a storm to get wound up.
  22. For the first time in quite some time, starting to see a clear signal that the MJO is firing and potentially taking the warm tour. As we have seen with modeling at 12z, there should be nearly an immediate reaction after d10 with models depicting that. That is a big change. If true, the MJO will definitely want to retrograde the trough west and undercut it with a ridge across the southern tier.
  23. Taking a lunch break...In the LR, looks like the ensembles are quickly retrograding the trough into the central areas of the country after 300 on both the GEPS and GEFS - not a huge change in continuity but some.
  24. Virtual school bogging everything down here at the house(can't get anything done at all...not work and definitely not weather) - virtual just started back for the first time since August. We have worked our schedules so both of us can be home, but still not enough hands on desk with a house full of kiddos. Whew! Keep the fires burning...will check-in when I can. On top of virtual learning for young kids being terrible - no snow days now! LOL.
