Speak for yourself. No mercy over here it's bullseye in my backyard or this is the largest bust of all time.
seriously though the reason I'm here and not elsewhere is because no one here lets their backyard determine if a model is good or bad. Can't be said for others.
I noticed that as well. I do find it hard to believe the RGEM scours out the cold. I go from 21 to 36 on the RGEM Monday with snow falling. Doesn't add up.
Yep! RGEM pushing in more cold. One more tick at 12z and I'm happy haha
hrrr and RGEM absolutely crush eastern portions while NAM nearly blanks the same locations..
Still snowing on hrrr too lol
it's razor thin but keeps me frozen the entire event.
NAM looks good too! A tick south. Update: better early on. Nasty warm nose still later.
Man I feel much more optimistic for extreme eastern areas such as myself after 00z. Pretty much all high res keep temps below 32 to the border except the NAM (which jumped SE in a big way) and the RGEM. Hopefully the RGEM can get on board with more cold push by 12z!
Vertical velocity at the 700mb will show you the clearest picture of the best dynamics and lift (which is always the right entrance region) The nam has been trending massively toward other models
For those on the Eastern side worried abt temps... the 00z hrrr and 18z RGEM are very similar as far as precip alignment and placement. But look at that cold push on the hrrr. Much much better. Even keeps my lonesome self below 32. The rgem seems to just be amping hard and eroding that boundary. But the hrrr is proof there is a solution that delivers even for extreme ETN.
Not at all. Greene county looks good. At worst a couple hours of freezing drizzle.
if anyone should stick a fork in it it's me haha. This is the one time me being tucked in the mountains in Unicoi county is a bad thing. Even then I'll see some frozen which is a win. You guys further east in the valley haven't had a setup this good since I moved here which has been 4 winters. Reel it in!!
Mountain counties are warm nosed. Rain/freezing rain. On rgem atleast. It's not a qpf problem or anything. It's temps.
In fact, the rgem warm noses a larger portion of ETN this 12z all the way through Johnson city.
