Patience Grasshoppers! I see a lot of positive factors in play.

RAH seems to be going with a rain/snow mix for Raleigh and points east with all snow west.

Raleigh gets Nam'd

Southern Upstate SC: “Check Please!”

I’ve been at my place for 10 years and have yet to see any decently measurable snow since I’ve been here. We are due!

I’d like to think with that upper level look, the cutoff wouldn’t be that sharp.

[BooneWX]

Our piece of energy is now coming ashore in northern Canada, so hopefully some clarity is added soon

[WXNewton]

18z RDPS further West with more moisture, but too warm at the surface for most east of 77.

The model thats gonna replace the NAM the RRFS A. 

 

[lilj4425]

So…I either get nothing or six inches.

That’s what she said. 

[BornAgain13]

Would love to see the NAM and RRFS A be correct. This is a storm thats final solution is far from captured yet.

I’m withholding excitement until the euro hops onboard. Temps still scare me but rates like NAM had with cold 925 would do the trick

GRAF Model is offshore

[BooneWX]

CAMs will likely lead the way on this. Globals are not going to handle a WAA setup with great skill. Trends with short term model guidance will be the key from here on out.

I’ve been away at work since this morning. What did I miss?

[Brick Tamland]

[SnowDawg]

Well guess it’s just the NAM and its replacement vs everything else. What could go wrong?

[LakeNormanStormin]

New GFS sucks for us by Lake Norman. No moisture

[Brick Tamland]

GFS not as impressive this run. Looks like less precip.

Just over here hugging NAM snow maps and discrediting the Euro as usual. Getting primed up for a let down IMBY

[BornAgain13]

GFS folding like a towel. Horrible model. The Euro aint perfect but it is Superior. Like @BooneWXsaid, hopefully short range models start picking up on something and lead the way

Snow! Somewhere in the south, but not settled on where. A range of 6” to nothing for many per model guidance. Some solutions snow on the fish in the Atlantic, a few are almost at the Tennessee border. Also, a range of temps from “it will work” to “not a chance.” Much clarity added in the time you’ve been away!

[Leesville Wx Hawk]

It’s still early in the game. Not a great Happy Hour GFS but there’s still time.  

[Brick Tamland]

NAM 4 life!

[Leesville Wx Hawk]

They still have Hulk Hogan on beer commercials during wrestling.

[LakeNormanStormin]

Devastated.

Thought this one had legs up in north Mecklenburg county by the lake.

[eyewall]

Awful run:
