A little too progressive for my liking. Wound up at .10 here.

Forecast models seem like they'd be one area where AI can make a rapid impact. Curious to see how this evolves: https://www.theverge.com/2024/12/7/24314064/ai-weather-forecast-model-google-deepmind-gencast

It's a good thing we know that JB would never stoop to the level of hyping something without substance to boost the subs. Seriously though, I get why people post his takes on here, but do people really still follow and listen to him?

Helene now up to Category 4. Going to be a wild night in the south.

Think you might be on to something! GFS is downright painful. You know it's dry when we're starting threads about a little rain.

Pretty good storm starting to wind down here. Torrential rain with an hourly rate of 6.18". Looks like we'll land at about 1.7", which is just a little less than I got from Debbie.

FWIW, 0Z HRRR looks pretty significantly east than the 18Z, though still plenty west to keep the folks who really need rain in on the game.

GFS looks to be holding firm on the southern track, re-landfalling near Savannah Thursday morning and pushing slowly west.

Wild. I said I'd be happy to get .3 today, so I won't complain, even if the dogs really, really didn't like this: https://video.nest.com/clip/67f945793cee4911bd068a93b2cee8b3.mp4

I checked GEFS maxes to at least have some hope of a respite, but nope - also shows straight 90s through the end of the run.

Are you seriously asking for people to take fault for failing to accurately predict the future weeks in advance, despite using the best science and guidance available at the time, all because you wanted more snow than you've gotten? Get over it. If you need that kind of accuracy, you need to stay away from this thread and stick to listening to the nice man on the news for your weather forecasts. With long-range forecasting comes great uncertainty. If you can't handle it, move on.
