    Euro gets frozen precip in the area, but about 24 hours later, so not nearly as good a look with the high having retreated to the east significantly more than the GFS

    One thing to keep in mind is the radical difference between the way the GFS and Euro handle the next frontal system (at around hour 84). I have a feeling the Euro won't look anything like the GFS due to the downstream implications. It's going to take a while to iron this one out

    I don't see this setup flipping to rain for most of the Piedmont

    I wouldn't say I'm excited, but this is a weather board and I'm interested in weather, regardless of the degree to which I enjoy it. Ice storms are fascinating from a meteorological perspective, even if they are the saddest of frozen precip types

    The 0z Icon also has a pretty significant snow to ice storm (mostly ice)

    About a quarter of the GFS ensembles show big mixy hits. Most of the rest are pretty suppressed or the energy cuts to our west and it's too warm

    The Euro on board with the storm idea. Model consensus at the moment is mid-levels will be a struggle, but as others have said, CAD may rear it's ugly head

    I know RDU Climo sucks, but crazy that 3"+ storms only occur about every 2-3 years. Question: how did you compile the data for multi day storms? I've been meaning to do a similar analysis for Greensboro, but only find day snowfall data out there.

    In other news...

    Seems the long range favors mixy slopfests. We shall see. This is the time of year where marginal temp events rarely work out and the wedge always wins

    Coming down pretty good in Greensboro, despite light radar returns
  12. olafminesaw
    Wetbulb temp of 35 in Greensboro. Just waiting for the precip to arrive

    I think the perception about Greensboro is drive by the fact that we do tend to cash in to some degree on most events effecting this board and tend to do well when Raleigh flips to rain. However, a lot of times, we end up stuck on the fringes, whether it's southern VA that gets the jackpot, or Fayetville.

    Should start to see development between 4-5 up your way. But lots of Virga until the atmosphere gets saturated

    Are we quite sure it's not an opening into the underworld?
  16. olafminesaw
    Anyone who gets 2"+ is going to see some pretty decent drifts with gusts in the mid 30s

    As someone said a few pages back, models have no idea what the qpf distribution is going to play out. Just gotta watch where the best envelope and wait for now casting. I just wish this wasn't in the middle of the night

    Lol, the 10:1 weenie map has 40" over my house for the full run

    I don't know whether to feel nervous or confident about the fact that most models have consistently put the best banding over the triad.

    Yep, it's some love from the ULL, with some enhancement from the jet as the trough goes negative. The mid-Atlantic forum is bemoaning the fact that all the best dynamics for this feature are down here, so that's always a good sign
  23. olafminesaw
    RGEM is the RDPS (confusing I know)
  24. olafminesaw
    The heavier bands could put down snow pretty quick. Unfortunately the window is small for accumulating snow. Also have to battle surface temps at onset
  25. olafminesaw
    I know it's frustrating to watch the coastal portion of the storm slip away, but honestly, not a bad look for a 1-3" of fluff for most of the Piedmont. Even with a late phase, the backside potential is decent
