  1. LOL, just now saw your comment. Snowbird's comment was the one that got me to thinking, and I was referring to that. And yes, very much agree with you and snowbird. I was just thinking it is not so much an adjustment in track as it is in flow backing...and your comment is spot on as well. When a slp forms, modeling has trouble with the NW quadrant. Will be a triumph in modeling if globals and mesoscale models successfully depict a finesse situation like a lee side low. Modeling has come a long way.
  2. The models and digital stuff that I take to with me from this point onward are these: a couple of more runs of the Euro, the RGEM, the ARW, and radar returns. I just keep it simple with those four. All we can do at this point is monitor trends. Most good storms have an uptick in good trends right up to the event as models don't seem to ever catch-up to good storms. No idea if that happens with this. Depending on a lee side low is tricky business, but most modeling has it and climatology support that on a strong front like this per MRX.
  3. WRF-ARW now has this... had been all over the place. Good model and we needed it on board in some fashion or another. You know, I am not sure this is really trending west as much as the lee side low is backing the flow of the storm. That is causing the flow to back just enough that the cold catches the precip and then orographic lift does its thing as well.
  4. Here is the video update from MRX which they did at 7:00PM. There are couple of slides which show when the changeover is in various places. Very helpful and should answer your question almost to the minute for Kingsport. Yeah, that is a high degree of difficulty with snow on it!
  5. Looks like it is a bit slower, between hour 27 and 30 the line hits the valley and backs/slows down and precip depeens over the eastern valley. Overall, the line just looked a bit more robust. Lee side low drops to 999 vs 1001.
  6. 18z Euro **edit**. Decent uptick in accumulations and increase in amounts along the western edge of 12z accumulations.
  7. 18z GFS was putrid as was its ensemble. 6z was similar. So, 12z seems to be the outlier for that model during the past couple of days. Wonder if it is its progressive nature? Other modeling seems to be fairly settled.
  8. If I could cash out now, I would take it. Add in the cold and winds....going to fire up the wood stove and enjoy Christmas. I am a little concerned about power if we were to get heavier snow along with wind and cold. But hey, let's roll.
  9. Good find. Told tnweathernut he brought some good mojo this morning! LOL. If we can get any kind of ridge to pop out West, we are in business. I am not a huge fan of the 12z GEPS run, but it may just be noise at that range.
