January 2023 Medium/Long Range Pattern Discussion Thread
fountainguy97 replied to Carvers Gap's topic in Tennessee Valley
12z has been an interesting suite for our weekend storm. Chances are still zero but there has been a shift to more of a slider solution with a late coastal reformation. ICON and CMC both are more of a slider with a coastal reformation too far out to sea. BUT there has been an increase in GEFS members that also show this but have the coastal close enough for some enhancement. 7 memebrs now have the second enhancement close enough to our area to prolong our event... But GFS remained the same with the more powerful northern dominant storm. This comes down to which lobe of energy can take over. Some of these gefs members are halfway decent for East TN. I don't think this is a big event for us but this coastal reform is the path for a more meaningful event. The CMC is a weird in between but look how undefined that Low pressure is....- 923 replies

For what it's worth the EURO overnight did return to the bowling ball solution which pulled the low further south. Didn't change snowfall much but that is a step in the right direction.- 923 replies

5month old keeping us up tonight. 06gfs is cutting even more. We just can't get a southern track to save our lives this year. Safe to say 3rd year Nina's are not the move for snow.- 923 replies

fountainguy97 replied to Carvers Gap's topic in Tennessee Valley
wow to @Carvers Gap point about a crawling storm the 12z GEFS has significantly increased that solution. some bombs on it If EURO and EPS also support this, then it is safe to say we at least have a pretty unanimous storm setup with the bowling ball. Historically these setups have dumped some of the largest totals across the SE. A long way to go but we take our chances with this. Temps are a concern right now.- 923 replies

Have to like the signal we have here in the 7-10day range. Having the euro/EPS on our side is something we didn't have last time. Energy is coming onshore in 120hrs. This isn't really complete fantasy land. Having EPS/GEFS signal here is pretty legit.- 923 replies

Weather.us has a cool EURO ERA5 archive back to 1950. I have also found the snowfall records here to be absolutely pitiful. This is snow depth so likely on the low side of what actually fell.- 923 replies

Congrats to all! Unfortunately a shutout here. Mountains robbing moisture for me today. -

I have never seen so much salt on roads ever. They have it a quarter inch thick over here lol. All the cars are white from salt. -

Air is extremely dry but cloud deck has slowly started to descend here. Hoping for another .5 before we warm up! -

Went to bed when radar was thinning out. Woke up 2 hrs after returns faded away and it's still coming down good. 12 degrees. -

This storm was always going to be tough to get anything good out of. Stinks we are reduced to flake watching but it is what it is. cold will still be epic! -

This thing is racing. Backside is moving at 60mph. -

fountainguy97 replied to Wurbus's topic in Tennessee Valley
there seems to be more precip ahead of Front than expected. Back side doesn't look bad but it's not super strong either. Downsloping going to annihilate this I'm afraid. -

Precip depiction is off. Real transition is back here. But it won't be long either way. -

fountainguy97 replied to Wurbus's topic in Tennessee Valley
I'll be interested to see the transition tonight. Do we go straight rain to snow? Or an inbetween? And as pointed out a big question still remains in regards to our moisture. The DGZ will be on the ground. So we could end up with basically freezing mist for hours after. -
2022-2023 Fall/Winter Mountains Thread

Hard not to get excited for my area. Should be brief blizzard-like conditions tonight! -
Historic Christmas Cold & maybe snow?! Dec 23rd-30th
fountainguy97 replied to Wurbus's topic in Tennessee Valley
this is primarily for upslope regions. Rations will be 25:1 a couple hours after frontal passage. That means .04 qpf is an inch of snow. Tiny qpf changes matter a lot here. More than normal. brief blizzard conditions will be possible across most of the area tonight. This is going to be fun! -

Our complaining worked because hrrr is again back to beefing up totals.
