Historic Christmas Cold & maybe snow?! Dec 23rd-30th
fountainguy97 replied to Wurbus's topic in Tennessee Valley
I feel like this is one of those storms that has 1000 scenarios that mostly don't work for us and only 1 that does. Even if we get more focus on the miller A low it doesn't really matter unless it's the primary. No way we get back to that. In fact, a coastal transfer could end up dryslotting ETN more. This is all or nothing I believe. -

fountainguy97 replied to Wurbus's topic in Tennessee Valley
06z gfs undid all the positive trends and is now the least snowy it's been lol. Towel has been thrown for me. Let's kick the can another 10 days down the road like we have done since thanksgiving -

Yeah don't think the DGZ level means a whole lot really but still crazy to be on the surface in our area. -

Historic Christmas Cold & maybe snow?! Dec 23rd-30th
fountainguy97 replied to Wurbus's topic in Tennessee Valley
With the DGZ literally on the ground I will be extremely curious to see how Meso Models handle the NW aspect of this event. In uncharted territory as far as my NW experience here. Could be single digits and NW flow. The only negative is it's relatively short lived. -

Gfs has been ticking east since 12z. it may not be 2feet across the entire state but this isn't over. We have a LONG time before it's completely set. -

fountainguy97 replied to Wurbus's topic in Tennessee Valley
I mean the 18z gfs is still a substantial hit. Maybe we can see euro trend toward a snowier solution. I'll admit the gfs scenario does seem a bit odd. Possible. But not sure I've seen anything quite like it before. -

Although the snow didn't go the way anyone wanted this is still an absolutely incredible cold shot. Even more so now without snow cover. -

Yet another event we have to kick the can down the road for. Been doing it since thanksgiving. EURO obviously going to win this match. -

fountainguy97 replied to Wurbus's topic in Tennessee Valley
Icon with a big shift to GFS. Single digits and heavy NW flow for most of TN. Meanwhile GFS making a tick toward euro at 500mb so far. We may end up with one of these weird in between systems after all -

fountainguy97 replied to Wurbus's topic in Tennessee Valley
This difference is pretty wild at 48hrs out between gfs and euro. look over Alaska. The GFS already has a much more discreet energy piece. Wonder how it's getting that while no other model is showing it. -

fountainguy97 replied to Carvers Gap's topic in Tennessee Valley
This would shut up the old timers about how "it used to snow so much" follow this up with multiple runs to zero and below and you have a historic event across ETN for sure- 582 replies

December 2022 Medium/Long Range Pattern Discussion Thread
fountainguy97 replied to Carvers Gap's topic in Tennessee Valley
Our energy is over Russia currently. It hits the Canadian coastline in 5 days. We have a LONG way to go with this first event. Key for the next 2-3 days will continue to be the ensembles. Typically when the OPs lose a storm in this range and it is a legit threat the ensembles don't budge.- 582 replies

December 2022 Medium/Long Range Pattern Discussion Thread
fountainguy97 replied to Carvers Gap's topic in Tennessee Valley
Idk if it's the perfect flow or what but this is one of the most intense wind events I've experienced here. It's legitimate mid range tropical storm conditions here. The 00z Euro would be wild. Near zero with NW flow and possible blizzard level winds.- 582 replies

December 2022 Medium/Long Range Pattern Discussion Thread
fountainguy97 replied to Carvers Gap's topic in Tennessee Valley
I'm not going to lie. All I see is models kicking the can down the road. Nothing concrete has moved into the more confident short range or even mid range. Our first two storms (front passage and suppressed wave behind it) have gone their way. Third one already pretty far north on guidance. 06z gfs continuing that trend. Really hope we don't kick the can in these threats straight into spring.- 582 replies

December 2022 Medium/Long Range Pattern Discussion Thread
fountainguy97 replied to Carvers Gap's topic in Tennessee Valley
Models starting to come to some semi-agreement in a NW event with this first system. that being said there is a LOT to iron out even with this first system. The chances behind it are even better. Have to like where we are right now. If we can even score with our first system that's gravy on top.- 582 replies

Fantastic! Hoping for a great winter here! Yeah flow is mostly unimpeded for me even down low! -
2022-2023 Fall/Winter Mountains Thread
fountainguy97 replied to BlueRidgeFolklore's topic in Southeastern States
I'm in Unicoi County. Below Beauty Spot in Rock Creek area. 2,000 elevation on the nose. I do surprisingly well in NW events considering I'm not very high up. An amazingly complex climate in the Southern Appalachians. Pretty fun to see all the local snow "hot spots." And how it varies so much. -
2022-2023 Fall/Winter Mountains Thread
fountainguy97 replied to BlueRidgeFolklore's topic in Southeastern States
Hey crew. I'm just over the hill in TN but figured I may start poking my head in here as my weather coincides with this thread most times. 12z gfs finally came around to an extremely borderline but pretty significant NW event this weekend. -
Fall 2022 Medium/Long Range Forecast Discussion
fountainguy97 replied to Carvers Gap's topic in Tennessee Valley
Gfs "caved" to euro at 12z. Can we squeeze out an extremely borderline NW event over Thanksgiving Weekend? This 5 day change is crazy. -
Fall/Winter 22-23 General Observations

We live in Erwin, Tn area. 2000ft! I grew up in Greenville, NC which was our trip this weekend. -
Fall/Winter 22-23 General Observations
fountainguy97 replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
NW Flow managed to bring a few bands this way today. We are visiting family in NC but the ring doorbell looks nice and cold. high of 36 at 1am. Currently 32.5. -
Starting to look toward the winter and I agree with everything here. Early peaking La Niña or Lanada looks all but guaranteed for winter. I see a decent start possible but into 2023 it's going to be hard not to torch. good news is we are due a nice rebound to El nino for 23-24!
