Cheeznado Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 GFS has 2" for Atlanta. New Euro and EPS are very important runs, I will not buy a bigger event than that until they come on board. I would take 2" here in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCSNOW Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Para gfs is 15+ from wake county ne. Lot of posters need more than a ruler in se to measure para gfs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southern and eastern areas are favored. They get paid the big money for a reason tho. Their human forecast aligns with north-west trends IMO. Para is good for these areas with better temps than southern or eastern areas. I do think when all is said and done trends will favor the NC high country.

Jonathan Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Am I correct in assuming that the GFS vs the GFS Para runs match up? As in, the 18z GFS Para would use the same info the 18z GFS did, even though it comes out closer to the 0z? So with the 0z Para, it should match up with the 0z GFS...geez I hope that made sense.

Id love to see precip maps on the ukie. Canadian does have UKIE meteograms, I think, somewhere on the GEM website. The thing is that storm if I recall correctly didn't necessarily undergo a monster shift. It was about a 60-80 mile shift inside 60 hours which is always possible. Those who see the impacts remember it as being bigger than it was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does, in theory, the 00z GFS Para should be a weaker version of the 18z GFS Para....that's what I would say anyway based on how the GFS is trending Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The surface @ 0z GFS is an issue, though. It's above freezing in ATL for most of the event. It might be a struggle to get it to stick around.

I didn't look but surface temps usually are not accurate this far out or sometimes even close in they are too warm because models don't resolve evaporative cooling so they think a 36/20 spread at the start of an event doesn't cool to 30 or 31.

packbacker Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Did a quick test tonight...this is how the GFS initialized tonight and below are the 4 Globals and the GEFS/EPS. The GFS was a little weak at day 5, the Euro and EPS weren't even close and the CMC wasn't half bad. This is just one snapshot but was curious on how the models have done the past 5 days. Top is how GFS initialized and the bottom 6 are from 5 days ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomorrow's WPC charts will be totally different unless the models change dramatically overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just looked and at hour 108 and it shows Atlanta just slightly above freezing, then warms up during the event at hour 114 to around 34 or 35. Really odd....I just don't think with a low that far south, surface temps would be a problem to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 GFS Parallel really is any interesting run since it keeps the wave intact looking very close to the 18z operational gfs as far has the impact to our area but also partially phases and brings the low up to Hatteras like the UKMET Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you rerun the 0z gfs 500mb you can see for a brief frame that energy over GL sense the gom wave but they r to seperated.
