December 2020 Medium/Long Term Pattern Discussion.
TellicoWx replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
There was a study done on one of the old forums several years ago centered around Atlanta regarding what phases/amplitudes they scored sig winter weather in...surprisingly the COD produced more than any other amplitude. I believe you hit the nail on the head...to score we have to rely on a weak version of the SER (more so for the eastern side of the state. Over amplify in cold phases and the cold overbears the Gulf...reverse for the warm phases..torch city. -

Think our middle TN folks would call it winter complete with that 00z GFS run for the end of the week lol.. -

Picked up .75" on the snow board in town..if you count what melted before sunset..looks like the RGEM did the best IMBY...think it is one of Holstons favorite winter models- 300 replies

TellicoWx replied to Holston_River_Rambler's topic in Tennessee Valley
Pretty impressed for town (upslope only works out maybe 5% of the time). Good start to the season...maybe, just maybe it will be a good winter. We had what seemed like great teleconnections the last couple years that went exactly opposite. May as well try the opposite lol.- 300 replies

Mixing at the house 1900' and 35, it's switched over to Graupel in Madisonville (900'). From what I've heard so far, the state line on the Skyway changed over around 5am.- 300 replies

6z 3k NAM seems to be picking up on maybe a little more energy rotating down the backside Holston mentioned earlier...now has the upslope producing in the Great Valley- 300 replies

18z HRRR continues increasing the UH up the valley
-

Def agree with Quincy, guidance is converging more in those areas...may finally be nearing an agreement. Only area with a bigger question mark is the southern valley of TN/NW GA.
-
12z 3k and CAMs looking more like HRRR as far as UH
-
Being the Fire Capt. at the time for a town here in SE TN...the morning convection spawned several touchdowns here on 4/27. It also did little to suppress the evening convection as it moved thru. Spent half the night going house to house doing search and rescue in the middle of the storms.

Strong wording in MRX AFD..kinda surprised me considering they are usually leaning conservative: the favorable jet coupling aloft, this event has the potential to pose the most significant tornado threat we have had since April 27, 2011

February/March 2020 Winter's Last Chance Thread

I could see HUN doing something (possibly BNA), but until (or if) the Euro lowers the surface temps I dont see MRX pulling the trigger. SPS yes, Watch no. -
February/March 2020 Winter's Last Chance Thread
TellicoWx replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
It's not an expansion of the precip shield as much as it is the path the 925 energy takes to our south. The circles area is the energy on the 00z NAM..as it crosses from MS into AL/GA line, it then transfers off the SE Carolina coast. Starting with the 18z (now 00z), the NAM has ticked slightly south with its path before transfer..taking the moisture return and dynamics to closer along the TN border. GFS is very similar to the NAM, while the 18z Euro took a big step in that direction (it would have looked very similar on snow output but it is about 4-6 degrees warmer right at the surface). How that piece treks south of us, will determine the haves and have nots. -

00z NAM sounding is almost a mirror image of the sounding last week...would be some nice big wet flakes. -
February/March 2020 Winter's Last Chance Thread
TellicoWx replied to John1122's topic in Tennessee Valley
Yeah it is..the 925 was a tick further south (but by just 10 mi or so. If NAM is to be believed..10 mi could make a big difference on the cutoff.
