Damn... Happy hour is a little late 

It would seem quite possible considering the indices:

- rising -NAO
- rising -AO
- weak MJO phase 8 (near or inside circle)
- quick +PNA spike

Euro is about the same for Friday. Little more moisture this run

[wncsnow]

Euro looks nothing like the GFS for Sunday night unfortunately 

[GaWx]

Holy Euro Barney!

[BornAgain13]

Models looking good for Friday... I really like that that Sunday/Monday system by the GFS but im not getting to excited since its the only one showing it like that.

Decent bit more.

0z GEFS just for the Monday system 

 

[BornAgain13]

6z GFS very similar to 0z for the Friday system.  The Monday system is still there at 6z but not as significant as 0z. Still a good snow up this way for many.

[NorthHillsWx]

I’ll take whatever the gfs is smoking on that Monday system

NAM is still not enthused at all about tomorrow night.

HWO from RAH reads like the most depressing event of all time:

A cold rain may mix with snow and sleet Friday morning. A very light
coating may result, mostly on elevated surfaces, before melting and
washing away in a cold rain on Friday.

Yeah I'm not expecting much if anything except for higher elevations from Avery County north. Another cold rain! Maybe the short range will start coming in colder but the CAD is super weak

The HRRR at long range (take it with a grain of salt) looks a little better.

Cold bias in mind, but shows how rates can push the rain, snow, sleet line south. These temp boundaries can yield impressive banding relative to what the global models show, so something to keep in mind. A very tricky forecast with a boom and bust zone likely

[BornAgain13]

12z HRRR brings the smoke.

[wncsnow]

Another reason the HRRR works is because it brings the heavier precip in faster tomorrow night

I always love how juiced and aggressive the GRAF is

12z FV3 looks good to!

[wncsnow]

Regular NAM still keeps it a Nc/VA line north event mostly 

[wncsnow]

Hi Res NAM is too slow and weak with the precip and its mostly rain for NC folks. It was slightly better than 6Z though. 

[wncsnow]

Some clown maps from the short range Hi Res models 

[BooneWX]

Mid month ridge looks transient 

[SUNYGRAD]

Definitely some better lift at 700 and 850 on the 12Z FV3 for northern third of NC, especially western half.  Probably will be the keys to how strong these levels will be and ultimately precip.  Just my opinion.

Since no one has said it yet….. Rates will overcome!!

[BornAgain13]

Thankfully the soil temps wont be a problem. Its been cold!
