    Kuchera maps are crazy big.

    My money is on a. slider w/ a wave on it through the Piedmont, but I play with fake money.

    The good thing for those in eastern areas....that look is very likely to change some. Modeling has shifted drastically eastward during the past 4-5 runs. On the positive note, models often lock-in big storms from long distances. Right now the cone is the MS River to the Apps. At 174 hours though, that is a LONG way to go....still seven days out.

    That one is is a middle TN and west TN crusher....eastern Cumberland Plateau and eastern valley get goosed! LOL.

    If posting the full, 8-day ensemble, it is important to remember that some snow falls this weekend, and there is a little system in between this weekend and Tuesday that modeling is finding. The ICON has it. The 96 hour GEFS map is a BIG uptick from the previous five runs for just that Tuesday storm. Probably as 2.5-4" for most of the forum. Not bad at this range, and lots of big hitters on the individual maps.
  6. Carvers Gap
    Looks like maybe a wave rotation around the base of the trough as the cold rolls in re: GEFS. The GEPS has zip.
  7. Carvers Gap
    Ensemble members look like a slider/wave.
  8. Carvers Gap
    For some locals, the 12z GEFS has temps twenty-five degrees BN at 7 days out. Pretty rare to see that.
  9. Carvers Gap
    The 12z GEFS ensembles look like 0z - not 6z. Looks like a massive cold front just pukes snow.
  10. Carvers Gap
    I don't remember cold fronts being this strong during El Nino winters...maybe 09-10? That is almost a La Nina set-up. How close is the GFS to a '96 look? Does it need to be flatter further east or just a bigger wave on the front and slower?
  11. Carvers Gap
    Both operationals match their ensembles in terms of temp profiles on the macro.
  12. Carvers Gap
    Again, a long way to go, but that run will work for most of the forum area. What comes behind it is potentially even better. The GFS broke the pattern down quickly at 6z, so this is a nice bonus if real. That nice, bowl shaped trough that follows is generally money.
  13. Carvers Gap
    No idea if correct, but that is a beautiful pattern after the Tuesday system next week on both the CMC and GFS.
  14. Carvers Gap
    The great thing about the GFS on this run is that it doesn't break down the block too quickly and inexplicably. Slider inbound after the 16th.
  15. Carvers Gap
    Yes, especially with these setups where it is cold. I don't think its physics are quite as good for storm details. Now, its short range model (RGEM) is money. It is better for getting long wave patterns correct IMHO. We used to call it the Crazy Uncle. It is the only model which correctly caught the cold - but it is always cold, so it maybe it is a blind chicken.
  16. Carvers Gap
    That is awfully close to a '96 redux if I have the storm correct. Take a minute and look in the Lakes...there is the problem.
  17. Carvers Gap
    Tough to tell. The 12z cmc is a big nada. The 12z GFS is basically one big cold front crashing eastward. Really the only difference between the two is the GFS has what is called an anafront - and I am still not sure that I am using the right term there. Basically the cold air just plows under the warm air and forces the warm/moist air to rise. Rising air produces precip. The big thing is the precip is behind the from on the GFS and in front of it on the CMC. The GFS solution makes good sense since the air behind it is so cold. And....the cold will be coming across new snow in the MidWest.
  18. Carvers Gap
    Trailing snow showers have been over performing in E TN w/ the last few systems. Nothing big, but decent. So, tough to know. Good little pattern that we are in for the next 7-10 days.
  19. Carvers Gap
    This reminds me of the Christmas storm from a few years ago(Jan 16h). If we can catch a wave (without a warm nose), we could be in business. We will see. Still in the game, so that is good.
  20. Carvers Gap
    I just don't see it with the Friday system. I could easily be wrong. OHX would be much more familiar with your area. Maybe the Plateau and higher elevations of E TN. Could be a dusting, but who knows. These systems are powerhouses.
  21. Carvers Gap
    No, the Jan 16 system.
  22. Carvers Gap
    Yes, that will do.
  23. Carvers Gap
    We may be dealing with an anafront? Is that the right term?
  24. Carvers Gap
    Not a terrible run by the 12z GFS....
  25. Carvers Gap
    MRX is still banging the drum for a pretty significant wind event tonight and into tomorrow. Heads-up.
