I'm 29 and dropping pretty quickly. The RUC had moisture arriving around 10 am so with some evap. cooling could be a few sleet pellets before the plain rain. The mtns may end up getting more ZR in the morning if the moisture gets in early enough and temps continue to plummet. Or the 33 and rain deal.

I usually warm up very quick at my elevation with warm SW flow. Looks like The GFS is gonna bring the deformation band into the midwest at this rate.:arrowhead:

I think the GFS just did you one better.

Yes it did. That said, as many other have said, there is really no good way to predict where that band sets up. It will move around I'm sure over the next few runs.

Just want to say thanks to everyone that is still posting maps and info even they are likely out of this storm for the most part! I am just east of Nashville and I have to say I am pretty excited to see how this unfolds. We have missed out many times this year and only ended up with a few inches so I would love to see a 4-6" How is central TN looking based on the latest models? thumbsupsmileyanim.gif

I would think your best chance on the 0z GFS is at hour just before hour 36. W/out looking close I can't tell how much precip falls as snow. BTW, there are folks waay more qualified than me to answer that.

I'm going to update my maps in the morning. Ms, Tn,Ky, Wva, Va should do well. Some areas will probably get over 6".

Well I never thought I would see the day BUT WSBTV's Glenn Burns just showed his newest run of the RPM model he lives by and it even showed snow wednesday morning from Rome to Canton North. He actually said I disagree with this model I think It could def. be MORE snow. He also said he has seen this situation before and says if this upper level low is as strong as modeled this could mean big trouble so stay tuned! I almost fell out the chair. I have never seen him go against this RPM MODEL!!

Glenn Burns WSB met saying the models arent pcking up the cold air or something about water vapor and moisutre in the air that causes a curve that causes colder air aloft. He says he has seen it before and could be big toublle. Thought?

Yea he was pointing out the Upper Level Low and its potential it can cause..

Don't think this has been posted. CYA, IMO. But it is a calm heads up to the possibility of wintry weather.

COLDER AIR WILL FILTER INTO THE REGION WEDNESDAY MORNING AS THE

LOW DEPARTS TO THE NORTHEAST. MOISTURE WILL REMAIN PLENTIFUL

HOWEVER AS AN UPPER LEVEL STORM SYSTEM SWINGS THROUGH. THIS WILL

ALLOW FOR A PERIOD OF RAIN MIXING WITH AND THEN CHANGING TO LIGHT

SNOW BEFORE ENDING WEDNESDAY EVENING. THE BEST CHANCES FOR

ACCUMULATIONS WILL BE ACROSS THE NORTHERN TIER OF THE FORECAST

AREA...ESPECIALLY AT THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS. MORE DETAILS ON THIS

EVENT WILL BE CONTAINED IN SUBSEQUENT FORECASTS BY THIS OFFICE AS

THE EVENT DRAWS CLOSER.

The 00z gfs was actually a significant trend south from the 18z run. Not quite as impressive as 12z, but the WNC mountains eek out a quick inch or two before the deformation band moves out. Just a tiny shift south and its a much bigger deal. Even more interesting was that the nam is now the northern outlier, with the RGEM and the GFS further south.

Yeah, I wondered how ffc would come down on this storm for mby. They hit my totals exactly in the last two storms that put measurable frozen down, even seeing the dry slot would steal all my sleet last storm. When I saw Spann's map earlier I figured they go on board with what Ala was seeing. Earlier meteostar gave me .2 with 850's 2 or better so I can see there is a chance, though being in the afternoon, adds problems. Be interesting to see if they put flakes back on my point cast later.
