Mid-Long Range Discussion 2026

GFS with a rather large jump back east. Euro remains about where it’s been. One models staying steady and the other is jumping around 100 miles each run.

6z icon was pretty solid for central NC but not western areas. Still huge improvement overall though

Feast or famine. Goofy vs Dr No. Who’s gonna be the winner? Stay tuned to see how the model madness plays out

That NAM run was delivered with the Jaws music

I still think Central NC is in a great spot. The fact that hasn’t really changed in 24 hours is both concerning and exciting.

6z GEFS, not a bad run but a big step back from 0z.

Eric Webb also seems to think this thing has plenty of reason to move NW as we get closer. We shall see.

I do think it ticks NW but those will be ticks on the EURO. Inside 3 days to see the euro which has been rock steady comparatively to other modeling just jump 200 miles west would be shocking m. I do think you see them meet in the middle somewhat

We are NOWHERE near the stage to worry about it as our main issue but BL temps and daytime timing are concerned. BL temps have modified with each run across most guidance for a few cycles now. Thankfully upper levels seem really good for the setup

Another day of model watching. The short range models look pretty good. The GFS is starting to go back and forth, and the Euro is being stubborn. Looks like a classic winter storm threat for NC with not knowing exactly what will happen until it does or doesn't happen.
