  1. Everyone wins with the 1/18 event on the 12z GFS. No rain/snow line. A solid, plowable snowfall on a holiday weekend.
  2. HR216-222 on the 12z GFS has a solid banana high and decent western ridge at 500mb. Key ingredients for cold air. Very happy to see this.
  3. Looks like the GFS/Euro try to get the MJO into Phase 7/8 border by 1/20, then hold it in 8 through mid February.
  4. Wow congrats Carolinas. Their snow drought has been worse than ours of late.
  5. Yup. Keep your expectations low everyone.
  6. If it's conducive for snow to our south, then we're in a position to score.
  7. EPS starting to get busy. Another good sign. EDIT: Yes, I know this is for TN, if it's showing a favorable pattern to our south, then we're in a position to score here.
  8. Not only has the west coast ridge trended sharper on the EPC, it's also trended stronger. Good to see.
  9. 100% probably one of the better model suites of the winter thus far. Bottom line: there's potential next week, but no one should be spiking the ball. I fully expect swings with each run, hoping to at least see a trend at 18z where things are still there.
  10. They seem to be more common in El Nino events, maybe the more active STJ is a requirement for these?
  11. A key ingredient for any legitimate snowstorm in these parts.
  12. Agreed. We're like 12 hours off from a legit event for everyone.
  13. Thus far, the 12z suite gives credence to a storm somewhere in the 1/15 to 1/17 time frame. It doesn't appear to be a cutter either, either it hits us or to our south. That's about all anyone should glean.
  14. Seems like a 50/50 low locks everything in? Not a terrible spot for the antecedent high, not great either. IIRC, that setup worked for 12/19/09 too.
  15. DGEX and then the DGEX and Canadian for the 2/10 event.
  16. As @Terpeast and @WxUSAF have often said, worry about thermals inside D5.
  17. Yea there's a decent moisture feed with that storm and it looks fairly neutral at 500 mb?
  18. Will echo others' sentiment about Jan 2025. My records indicate a total snow depth of about six inches for several days, with a low temperature of 1° twice.
