  1. I need it to shift north a little.....
  2. Yep, this is our hobby. It's like playing a board game where you roll the dice every 6 hours.
  3. The 6z NAM is beautiful. Very pronounced CAD with an ideal high and low setup:
  4. Sure did. So we had some models shift north while the GEFS ensemble shifted south. Just tells us we have more model watching to do...
  5. The 6z ICON (compared to 0z) shifted the heaviest snow totals from western NC into SW VA.
  6. To his point, here's the comparison of the GFS and NAM at hour 84:
  7. Hey Brick it's nice to see you post man! Lets see if we can get some snow for our area.
  8. If the NAM is on to the colder temps (better CAD setup), I think we can get a significant storm. The question is do we get a 2009 storm (miss for us) or a 2002 storm (major ice storm).
  9. Slightly colder dew points; especially into north central SC.
  10. For RDU and charlotte folks, the 12z GFS was definitely a better run. It shifted the cold slightly to the SE. We need all the slight shifts SE we can get.
  11. At least it's better than its last run.
  12. Just looking at the panels for RDU, it looks like snow or ice for 12 hours before any change over.
  13. And I'm thinking a significant ice storm to the east.
  14. Surface temps are cold as well. I don't think the rain/frozen view shows ice. RDU down towards Charlotte stays at or below freezing for a good portion of the storm.
  15. Sure is. 540 line is more south (in S. VA).
  16. With all the model outcomes you have to like this look for a major SE winter storm (..with temps in the 30s and dew points in the teens). 12z NAM hr84:
  17. That was a hurtful storm for myself. Started as a beautiful snow and laid down a couple of inches, but then went to rain and washed everything away.
  18. If the current runs are correct, it would probably end up like that.
  19. As currently modeled, this storm does look like that 2017 storm. Miller A with a sharp cut off. I'm not sold that this will play out the same. I'm thinking CAD is going to be depicted stronger in the coming days and we end up with something more like the 2002 storm (snow to the west and a big ice storm on the east edge). Now where that east edge sets up is anybody's guess.
  20. We need the surface temps colder. 32/33 with heavy snow will provide 5/6 to 1 ratios.
  21. Lol..I was sweating it the whole time. See that orange at the top of wake County, that's where I'm at. Lots of snow and sleet. I could smell the rain.
  22. Still days away. Models still need to get a handle on the details (like CAD and dew points). GFS(FV3 similar) Vs NAM at hour 84:
  23. For what it's worth, the 6z NAM is much colder then the 0z/6z GFS (at hour 84) with the push of surface dew points. CAD being under-modeled?
  24. We still have days of model runs. I personally think the high will be stronger and a stronger CAD will materialize (in the models). RAH even discussed their thoughts that there would be wide zones of precip types. The last few model runs have not shown much ice (mostly snow/rain). I think that will change in the models in the coming days.
