Since you're a church guy, I'm gonna be nice. It's way too far out to be discussing details, especially given that this winter has featured plenty of fizzles. With the winter we've had, even 84 hours out isn't a safe time to firm up a storm. You should come back on Saturday and I'm sure we'll have a better handle on if a storm is even going to happen. I wouldn't even mention a storm to your pastor at this time.

6z GFS has the storm, just way too far south still and off the coast. No turn north.

I think most will agree it's not a bad thing that the gfs is a wide swing south at this point. The euro made a mention in the LWX discussion.

THE NEXT LOW LOOKS TO TRACK ACROSS THE MID-SOUTH STATES EARLY NEXT WEEK AND IMPACT THE MID-ATLANTIC IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. WAY TOO EARLY TO TAKE AN OPERATIONAL RUN VERBATIM /AKA THE 00Z ECMWF/...SO WILL SIMPLY HAVE TO MONITOR THE POTENTIAL FOR LATE SEASON SNOW AS THE DAYS PROGRESS.

Agreed. For me, the bigger takeaway is that the storm exists on all the majors at this point.

I'd say he has a pretty good chance of getting 5-7 inches in the backend.......of the storm. Lot's of blowing with this event too.

That sounds right. So we have about 2 months to get a good storm. The JYO/MRB crew is good until around May 15th.

 

Matt, sometimes I can't tell when you are serious.  Are you serious with that?  Has there ever been snow back here that late?  I was living in swva in 1989, and we had an inch of snow on May 7.  It was the first measurable snow at TriCities Airport (ne Tenn) since 1937.

 

I wouldn't have thought snow that late would be possible at this latitude outside of the highest elevations.
