I have constant arguements with my GF on this storm lol

She lives in Garner -I was in Chapel Hill at the time and don't remember squat for a storm

It was Christmas Night...

[MHCWEATHER]

Moved from Raleigh to EI this summer. Kids are having winter FOMO (me too ), but I’m liking our chances.

P.S. ‘89 Christmas Storm was epic in MHC 

P.P.S. RIP Skip Waters. My dude loved some snow.  Miss his wish casting lol

Not to mention last years January storm!

Weenie run inbound.  Even GA guys might get brought into the chat on this one.  NC big score though.

[ADB83]

It’s still running, but the clown map is gonna be stupid lol

Is Skip Waters the same as @beanskip? He used to post quite regularly on this board.

Skip Waters was an iconic meteorologist for WCTI in New Bern. RIP!

Love seeing the transfer off the coast at the Ga Fl line.  Always a great benchmark for a Miller A snowstorm in the Carolinas. If only it verifies.  

[eyewall]

Keep in mind the snow and ice from the last storm certainly laid a good foundation for the next cold air mass. 

[neatlburbwthrguy]

Any maps for new GFS?

[BornAgain13]

2 Feet+ here on GFS. Oh if only the Euro showed something similar.

I want 30 inches in the Triangle

This won't do

[olafminesaw]

That goes in the weenie runs HOF along with that run that GFS run that dropped two feet four days out with the last storm

[mstr4j]

Poor Upstate of SC - Takes a BOMB of a storm to get .4 qpf, which is always over done.  Cut that in half, .2, the half to virga.....We looking at .1 qpf for a bomb phase, maybe we can get 20-1 ratio!!  hahahaha - Here is to hope!

If I show this to my wife maybe can finally get that generator. 

[BooneWX]

I’d imagine the QPF could be quite undermodeled at this range. A low that close to the coast and that strong is going to throw a much healthier precip shield much further west than modeled. 

[neatlburbwthrguy]

Crazy how gfs has decent snow in Eastern Georgia & then basically skips over Atlanta & brings a few inches to western Georgia near Alabama border.  

[Aleksey]

Weenie run inbound.  Even GA guys might get brought into the chat on this one.  NC big score though.

We can’t get a good snow here anymore, it seems impossible. This one looks like it will miss us and be a SC/NC special unless this thing shift 75-100 miles west

CMC says the gfs is crazy

47.9" in Delmarva?!?! Book it!

Another blockbuster run but I of course I do not expect this to hold.

That's what they said this last storm...until we were dry-slotted for 6-8 hours - No telling the glacier we could have had.  Granted this is a different storm setup- but it seems as of late whatever models say, it's always way overdone.  I think at one point for today the low was supposed to -8, ended up at 12 (20 degree difference) - Granted it's cold as all get out, but nothing is verifying as modeled.  Again, that is more upstate of SC, it maybe verifying perfectly everywhere else, but here - not close.

Might be headed to Duck, NC to chase some snow for this one.

Go further EAST. Salvo/Rodanthe NC!

12z CMC with a solid run! Not as strong as the GFS but still a big hit!

[BornAgain13]

The CMC was a touch off from the 0z Run but not a huge difference
