    So it looks like a ~6 hour period of light snow for central NC.

    I put "bad" and "good" in quotation marks because it is subjective (whether you want snow or don't want snow). I just meant that sometimes we praise the NAM when it shows what we want, but discuss how it is inaccurate when it doesn't show desired outcomes.
  3. PackGrad05
    I think the last few weeks has shown that the NAM is not reliable at all. Brad P even mentioned concerns about its reliability over the last few years since they are transitioning to FV3 and HRRR. If you throw out the "bad runs", you also need to throw out the "good" runs.

    Verbatim it shows 5-6 hours of snow... That's a nice event for our area, even if it is an inch or so.
  5. PackGrad05
    I'm watching it and that band pivots right through central NC.

    WRAL's first hand-drawn call map for this system.

    Cue the local mets showing trends decreasing with euro ensemble probabilities.
  8. PackGrad05
    Euro ensembles are what matters. Waiting on those.
  9. PackGrad05
    Remember this is the same time period that many models lost the storm last week only to trend back with better data as the date drew near.

    EURO has been most consistent with this event. Interested to see what 12Z ensembles show. Other guidance appears to be trending that way.
  11. PackGrad05
    Still plenty of time. Nothing has really changed over the past 2-3 days if you look at the big picture. Still looks like a rain/snow event with light amounts possible over central NC.
  12. PackGrad05
    Euro has been most consistent so far. Less fluctuations.

    Great article about how ensembles work if anyone is interested. https://www.wral.com/how-wral-meteorologists-use-ensemble-forecasting-to-determine-the-chance-of-1-or-3-snow-in-your-town/20099023/

    Latest from local station. I think they have just resorted to posting EURO ensemble probabilities and just update it every 6 hours.
  15. PackGrad05
    The latest update from WRAL. Posting European ensembles again. https://twitter.com/mazewx66/status/1486087212534050817?s=21

    Euro ensembles will be a better gauge.

    From Mike Maze: Many folks have been reaching out about the possibility of a major winter storm this weekend. Today's model runs are not showing it at all. Here's a look at the European Ensemble probabilities for 1" of snow ending Saturday night. Does not look good to me right now. Ensemble map shows 26% chance of 1" of snow for Wake.

    Starts as rain and then changes to snow as it gets cranking.
  19. PackGrad05
    Yes, they did say that. It was on their blogs. I haven't verified the accuracy of the statement though. As for next weekend, the signal is there, but cold air looks limited for now.
  20. PackGrad05
    the local mets said that the EURO was most consistent with this weekend's storm from day one..
  21. PackGrad05
    The roads are getting nasty out there. WRAL just had a crew on I-95 in Johnston County and it was horrible.
  22. PackGrad05
    The forecast looks pretty spot on to me so far. There are still several hours at least of snow to go and we already have about an inch in southern Wake. Most predictions I saw for this area were in the 1-3" range.
  23. PackGrad05
    Remember when a lot of folks were freaking out about that run of the NAM that shows the storm disappear? This should be a lesson to never freak out over one or two bad model runs.
  24. PackGrad05
    The main banding is definitely setting up along I-95 area.
  25. PackGrad05
    I'm also watching the temperatures. Here in southern Wake I'm up to 30.4. Most of the news stations were saying we'd be in the upper 20s all day.
