I dont see anything trending nw on 18z models... What am I missing here??

It's trended NW a bit with the upper low. the problem is we have other features trending in the wrong direction

That doesnt look like a nw trend to me

DT says his first call map will be out by 10:30 pm and that there will obviously be changes. Explains there almost always is between his 1st guess and 1st call. Says he's had the same process for 15 years.

Bad run for Central and anywhere in Southern Va. But with such a tight gradient, at least in HR, all it takes is a 50 mile bump and that's doable in 36 hours.

Doubt it. Look at the trends. They all are moving precip further south and east. This will be a outer banks storm and thats it

I hope its not an NC/SC exclusive event. I don't think it will. Still time.

A  kittle  more than i estimated

This  whole wknd storm seems odd on the euro. It looks like the low forms right off the OBX coast, and then drift southward and tucks into the border of North Carolina and South Carolina and then ejects East.  I wonder if there’s any chance of that low just tucking into the VA coast instead?

Ive seen 18" in ENC and nothing in Raleigh in the past.  I pray this isn't the same.

EURO looked drier. At this point the mountains may be the winners 

[jlewis1111]

Ghetto storm

[jlewis1111]

Pdiddy storm

[ldub23]

AT  least the euro ens is  more  moist

[EverythingisEverything]

I feel bad for our local Mets these models are really testing them.

You’re responding to a map that has your area (NN I think) in an area that says blizzard conditions possible and you’re saying it can’t snow?
