PackGrad05 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Still a lot of time, but not the trends you want to see at this stage if you're a snow lover in central piedmont. 18Z EURO ejection looked much different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It moves north every run. At this rate, only Washington DC will see snow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADB83 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 The Euro is not the model you want to hope is wrong. No model is perfect including that one. But that’s not the one I would want to be rooting against. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackGrad05 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 NWS and local mets lean heavily toward EURO. Expect their forecasts to shift accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzook Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 5 minutes ago, DeltaPilot said: I think for us here around ATL and just south, the problem with the models is how they handle the sleet/snow thing. I think we mix in the very beginning for a while, then the sleetfest and the freezing rain. The Models predicting total snowfall are likely really sleet totals, which is kind of insane. 3-4 inches of sleet followed by freezing rain will be devastating. Im kinda hoping for the sleet thing. The freezing rain setup looks really bad here. Fingers crossed. Sleet is ugly, snow is not. Freezing rain just outright sucks. Yup, we truly could be screwed here over the weekend. Could be without power for days. Just imagine all the pools with frozen pipes, and houses also. Truly a nightmare if it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowDawg Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Warning signs for this have been pretty clear since last night. Need big changes soon with the handling of the upper level energy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Tamland Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 One Euro run shows ice. GFS was great for most of NC. Models will still probably go back and forth the next couple of days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADB83 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 That is a LOT of ice. It’s been clear for a couple of days we were gonna get our first big winter storm in a while. It is starting to look like a major ice storm. A bummer and on top of that dangerous. So much precipitation, it’s going to be frozen precipitation. I’d rather rain than ice, but I don’t think that’s a possibility. Oh boy lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BooneWX Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 The Euro pulled off an elusive triple phase, which is why it jumped so far north. Not saying that can’t happen, because it can, but a triple phase would be insanely hard. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This EURO was indeed a huge shift and may bounce back, but the overall trend is clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WiseWeather Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Tbh i think the euro is underestimating the strength of the high pressure thats why it looks so wonky. Just my opinion though.. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Euro brings the mix line almost to DC. Discount it if you want but this storm has mega bust potential if these trends continue. Like that doesn’t even snow until the border. I’m shocked it jumped that far north and would hope it’s done but my goodness that’s two huge north jumps in a row for the king 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wncsnow Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 EPS is amped too. What a bummer. Time to take a break. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackGrad05 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Surface temps rebound quite a bit as well on the EURO. 12Z temps never got much past mid 20s in Wake. 18Z temps are up to freezing or just above. Would limit ice accrual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old people die in this setup...needs to just move on out of here - so freaking catastrophic and dangerous. Life threatening 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyhb Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 That run is an absolute disaster for the Carolinas ice wise, particularly upstate SC, Charlotte, and most of the Triad/Research Triangle metros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthHillsWx Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Just now, wncsnow said: EPS is amped too. What a bummer. Time to take a break. Yep. I’m gonna lay off for the night and see if anything trends back in our favor by morning. Feels like we lost it today, only model holdout is the GFS. Can buy a phase for 7 years then get one that costs us everything. We’ve seen trends reverse but problem here is the north trend has accelerated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
