seriously. and having every ens member shows 12"+ while it was raining lol.

Man that was painful.  Can't believe I am even looking at this threat...if that didn't there's no way a mid March threat is going to work out.

yeah agree, thought it looked like the CMC you posted....looked like to me it has a pretty nice, consolidated low in NE gulf at 144 with trough in MS

Amazing how far south that piece of energy dives to get underneath us....concerning.

How many times has a surface low track along I26 delivered?

Mar 9, 1960 would be one example.  With a more northerly wave/sfc low track, the key is the damming high, and it supplying copious cold air.  540 thickness line is well south into N SC in this example.  It's draped across N NC on the 12z GFS

I'm surprised nobody is saying anything about March 12th/13th 1993 storm of century.

There is another difference with Wednesday, March 9, 1960 set up. Before the storm on that date there was already a substantial snow cover over much of NC and the northwestern part of SC, left over from a major winter storm on March 2, 1960 that was followed by a week of temperatures up to 25 degrees below normal. I was in the the 7th grade during that memorable March in the upstate of SC. The Wednesday, March 9th snow was followed closely by a third on Friday, March 11, 1960. This budding snow fanatic was in heaven.

Lol! MA has punted to the Tuesday storm!! I love those guys!

Not sure why they are punting...the ensemble mean still has it north of the Op.  It's the MA, you know they won't miss this event, assuming there is one.
