The timing differences are interesting with the overnight model runs.  American modeling is much quicker (almost a full half day) than the UK and Euro.  If there’s a delay in precipitation arrival you have to wonder how schools will handle this (if it plays out like modeling suggests).

As shown, the front will hit quickly and roads will also become treacherous quickly.  If it waits till mid morning to early afternoon thats a lot different than waking up with snow and knowing schools will be out.  At least in the Tri-Cities area they have been dreadful with school decisions lately.  Almost like they have no advisement on the topic.

Good to see the models hold, now if we can keep this threat there for the next 1-2 days I’m sure we will all feel a lot better.

Almost every 6z GEFS member has a similar evolution at this point:

06Z-20190125_GEFSMW_prec_ptypens-84-126- 

EPS also now developing a cluster of lows in Central GA and aiming them at the MA

  Gotta love waking up to continuity between the UK and the Euro.  Great trends overnight,  T-96 hours Holston!!  We’re getting Closer buddy!!

Isn’t the GFS usually to progressive?

I've heard that, but don't know if it applies to the new iterations of the models or not. These things usually tend to slow down as they approach though, but that could just be my selective memory. 

And that observation is usually for systems coming out of the SW, so this one could be different.

Yes.  Good point.  Not sure during the short term, but I've heard that it has a progressive bias in the LR and that the Euro has a tendency to tighten systems up just a bit.  With the extreme cold forecast over Iowa/Wisconsin/Minnesota/Illinois, I suspect those temps are going to cause some issues with modeling outside of their usual bias.  Basically that means, I am not sure what the bias of each model is with those types of departures sitting just to the north.  With extremes in the middle of the continent, have to think that some things are going to get understandably mishandled.

This right here.  Unlike the fat flaked snows that we get at 31 degrees, these high ratio cold snows turn the roads into a bumper car arena with as little as a half inch.  Counties need to be paying serious attention and, if the modeling holds, plan to just call off school all together Tuesday.  Exuberance is building!  Let's reel this one in!

Yup, looked strikingly like the overnight UKMET

That's the same thought I had.  Really a beautiful run.  I am wondering if the storm being closer to the coast out ahead of this front will act to slow it down coming across (i.e. adding a few hours of precip).  Seems the later arrival on the UK and Euro may be feeling the other storm to some degree?

12z ICON develops a low on the front over eastern Louisiana and hammers southeast Arkansas and northern half of MS and northern AL with heavy snow.  Nice snows also in Tennessee.  Actually the max from the previously mentioned areas lift directly into east TN.  Going to be a great run.

Maps?

Yeah, been wondering how the possible coastal could impact this one. If you look at the precipitable water on the Euro, it shows how a bit get's left behind and picked up by our storm.

What if that storm (possible coastal) continues to trend NW? Does that give ours more moisture, does it amp it up quicker, does it function as a kind of 50/50?

As I see it two camps are forming, with the GFS possibly ending up on its own island over the next few runs.  Ukie, Canadian, and Icon like the idea of a secondary low forming in the Carolinas or the Mid-Atlantic.  The GFS and to a lesser degree Euro are just frontal passage with no low forming in the neighborhood.  The Euro though seems to be trending toward the idea of a low developing in the Mid-Atlantic.  This is going to be interesting to watch to see how it affects timing and speed of the system and whether it can over produce.
