  1. The lower the better lol..this isn't a warm adv system so I would be comfortable around 24/25 for sure (quicker onset for snow plus could become road issue)
  2. Dont quite remember a spread this big on the EPS 24hrs or less out....0" to 6" lol
  3. So seems most people are running ~3° colder currently on dews vs the coldest model. Yeah I definitely think you guys go WWA if radiational cooling stays on track.
  4. Will be interesting to see play out tonight...example: Athens area bottoms DP at 32 overnight on 18z NAM
  5. 18z NAM sounding @7p for the same general area...DP already below sounding
  6. Dew points starting to crash here along the southern foothills..I agree, if the DP can get down around ~25 (no waa with system) plus radiational cooling and the inverted trof (may aide rates)..there's slot of uncertainty if the models are right about the temps..some leeway to go colder imo. PWS in Loudon showing the DP crash moving down the valley
  7. 18z GFS sounding went from 42 to 36 at surface vs 12z due to more moisture/evap cooling..still a little too warm (for southern valley)
  8. Yeah, I would cut the NAM totals by 1/2 to 1/3..so 1"-2" in central/southern valley (2"-3" in those areas where ridge tops get to 1200'-1500' plus). Last weeks soundings had Chatt around 32/33 (fairly spot on with actual observed)..it was close enough to 32 for higher rates to impact the roads. 34/35 is just too high for rates to cool, still could see shaded areas of roadways try to accumulate.
  9. Looking at all the soundings for central/southern valley and plateau, I think that was a good call. WWA, WSW, and WSW products are mainly influenced by travel (2"-3" of snow of the grass while pretty has little impact on the public). Most soundings are in the 34/35 range, couple degrees warmer than last weeks system..not ideal for accumulation on the roadways. Think they went a little too low for accums on grass and think the plateau will go to an advisory at some point.
  10. Only ones I would think could, an uneducated guess, is 3k, HRRR, so on...just due to their very low resolutions
  11. I wonder if the modeling is picking up on that or if the rates could go a little higher than currently modeled...just not sure subtle inversions are built into the algorithm
  12. About the best setup statewide we can get, weak energy passing to the south (no ugly waa) but just strong enough to transport the moisture and lift
  13. Agree, soundings are very borderline south of 40 in the valley *as far as impacts to the roadways
  14. Looking at the soundings across all models for eastern valley..NAM is coldest at the surface (would be similar roads to what Chatt experienced last week), while rest sit around 34-35 with the below freezing mark down to around 1500'.
