For the CVSv2 lovers out there

4x daily CFSv2 runs averaged for 3 days (12 CFSv2 runs) for February. It's not often we see the CFSv2 average cold for a 3-day mean, it's done it before and backed off to warmth or not as cold, but it's rare.

One day average (last 4 runs)

Last 20 ensemble runs averaged for Jan 28-Feb 2 and Jan 31 to Feb 5

We'll see if the CFSv2 public maps trend colder again, it would  be good to see it consistent.

This is what I'm largely talking about when I say fantasy storms in the LR. This will change with the 06z run but it just demonstrates what the upcoming pattern is capable of.

Confluence swinging down with a s/w digging, +PNA ridge on the west. Not far from being a major east coast snowstorm, verbatim it's too negatively tilted but then again that's critiquing a 384hr image on the GFS.

People often ask why you would even look at a frame if it's going to change. It's the same reason you look at control runs, etc...trying to see if the modeling is spitting out any hints. We're 12+ days away, so really all you have are ensemble means to go on for the pattern evolution (500mb) and sometimes those aren't good enough for folks and they want to see it actually produce something on the east...well, it's at our doorstep.

and the 00z Euro just put a 979mb low off the coast of South Carolina. Cold lacking and of course Day 10 is a bit too early to get it here, but it's a weird look.

This is going to have big ramifications South and East by late Jan/Early Feb. Getcha some of this Mack!!!

Very strong west based -NAO block (the Baffin block).  It's a feature that's usually present in big SE snow events.

See the latest Euro. This would be a huge event for higher elevations.

Lol! Nice!

its hard to not be slightly excited, but if hate to waste all these broken mica, on a mirage! :(

Yeah, we're racking up the broken mic parts in a hurry.  Hopefully, these things are moving closer in time.  It seems like they are...at least for now.

MichaelJ, Pack probably hasn't seen any models yet.  He's probably too busy putting down pre-emergent! :)

We need to hold off until we hear from Timothy clark.

Sub 980mb off SC? Um no. That doesn't even deserve a response. Late Jan pattern doesn't favor a storm of that strength and track. With lack of cold air establishment I see on other models, I would be more worried about a Severe Weather Outbreak for parts of Georgia westward.

I do agree with Wilkes about the 979 low on the SC coast.  Prolly not gonna happen.

But if it is, this would be the right kind of pattern.  Jet stream very relaxed and primed for some big cut off lows like our late winter/early Spring patterns.

Yeah, agreed.  When you get a huge block up there, you can get anomalous events.  Lows of that magnitude and in that location would certainly qualify as anomalous.

Could definitely happen, the lack of cold air should be a concern!? The mountains score 2 feet and everyone else gets a sorry, cold rain!

wait, forgot this was an ULL, it'll make its own cold air!! :)

Yeah, it's probably raining as shown.  Need a strong high to the N or NW.  We're going to need a restock on the mic aisle over the next couple of weeks, methinks.

Actually the 0 850 line is from west charlotte to Roxboro with low bombing out right off charleston.  For giggles it would be Mtn crusher no doubt.
