  1. I know a better pattern is likely coming, but goodness, the fact this is rain is just depressing.
  2. Yeah it's definitely quite warm at the surface right now but if the coastal can get going it's got a shot. Problem is these late blooming coastals have been slow to develop and supressed all winter.
  3. Absolutely good storm tracks and the 540 line nearby they whole run. Of course 0Z was much less enthusiastic, so as you say we really need this to get inside 5 days to take seriously
  4. Even including the Dec 2018 snowstorm in the data, the last 5 years have been abysmal, with 38% lower than normal snow over that span. Mor than half of the snowfall in the last 5 years came from the 2018 storm
  5. Let's see if this one gains any traction. Not a typical system in our area, almost like a clipper
  6. True. 40 degrees drizzle wedge is what we do best!
  7. At least we won't have to endure storm threats 10 days out?
  8. For sure. it's currently 21/11 in Birmingham Alabama. Little Rock has been below freezing since Saturday afternoon. Also the projected difference in temps between just east of the mountains and just west is wild for tomorrow morning. Negative teens in Eastern TN and teens here, or 52 degrees below average in TN and 15 degrees below average here
  9. The 6z GFS features a period with 7 out of 8 days having measurable precip. Might as well just swap climates with Seattle
  10. Yeah I'm really getting deja vu on this one so that's not a good feeling. But I do think the orientation and Eastward progression of the cold air is better this time.
  11. Looking rather toasty around day 10-14. But signs of another pattern change after. We need a hard reset for early February anyway. Anything after the first week of February is normally drippy slop, which I'm not really about
  12. You just couldn't help getting premium so you could see how much we suck in fine detail
  13. The first system is more of a threat up close to the VA border. No matter where the band of snow falls it's going to be relatively light and unlikely to accumulate outside the mountains. The second threat looks actually somewhat promising for the coast where they may end up with a surprise inch or two due to better moisture/dynamics.. unless we can trend towards a stronger system, the triad may be left high and dry on this one
  14. Meanwhile Portland is getting a major snowstorm for the second year in a row.
  15. So far it looks to me like the GFS is caving to the Euro
  16. While I don't think a cave from the rest of the models is likely, especially with the Euro ensembles being a bit more amped than the OP, my worry is if you average it out with the rest of guidance you end up with late development that crushed the NE, but leaves us with poor dynamics/warm surface temps. The counter to this fear though is, it's good to see the GFS generate decent moisture on the backside even after the low passes well to our NE. We want the LP to stay weak and ride the boundary.
  17. Yep, always a good sign when the Mid-Atlantic forum is starting to get nervous about suppression
  18. Get's squashed, but pretty close to something good.
  19. The UKMET is quite amped and warm, good to see the GEFS cold and suppressed
  20. Not a ton of snow, but streets would be a skating rink in that scenario for the Triad.
