    Yes, x 1000. We actually have the cold or will next week. I think the southern stream will start to crank again in early Feb. I still believe we will still see a significant storm or two in the SE before all is said and done.

    All of the indices are for 8-10 days AT A MINIMUM, not for this weekend or even next week. I think a month from now, most people will be singing a different tune!

    Often, upper lows, which are cold aloft in nature, over perform and are not well handled by the models. See Lubbock, Tx..... I wouldn't discount the NAM 3K.

    Unfortunately, I DO think there is going to be some major icing, later Sunday after the brunt of the snow is over....I'm thinking in a line from CLT to RDU for the most icing.

    Yeah, the HRRR has been consistent showing strong CAD temps. Impressive, if correct, which I have not reason to doubt

    I know the storm is just arriving here in NC, but I've been impressed by the global models picking up on this event 7+ days. I'm not sure I've ever seen this. I'm trying to figure out why this storm is so well progged but others not so much. I'm thinking it may have to do to the strength of the waves, but that's just a guess. I'm thinking the locations right along the snow/sleet border is going to hit the jackpot of 16+" total which is insane for this area. Just think, we are only in early Dec and the way it's looking, Jan/Feb are going to be cold with plenty of blocking. I'm really thinking this is going to be a blockbuster winter for much of our region, esp the northern mountains of NC....wax those skis!

    Based on what I have seen with the overnight runs, I think it might be a bit conservative.

    Yes, great observation. 84 hrs only takes us to Sunday afternoon and this storm is going to persist through Monday morning, at least.

    Geez, check out the time on the map!! The NAM is slower and the bulk of the moisture is just really getting into the N parts of NC. What I'm saying is this is just the totals for the very beginning of the storm. Be patient! Yes, it's warmer aloft but we'll have to see what other model runs tell us.

    Yes, 850 low tracks from northern MS through AL, GA and off of ILM....pretty ideal for NC piedmont

    Nice 1040 high on NAM is good for PLENTY of cold air.

    Maybe a touch less QPF but I'm only seeing the maps through Monday at 12z....still have the upper low to go by on Monday

    As you well know, the NWS is going to be very conservative. Read their AFD...that's actually about as aggressive as you'll see several hours out. Anyway, why even look at their point forecast, you'll always be disappointed. All indicators point to a significant winter weather event for the Triad.

    Everybody is arguing over wind speed which is silly. It's a BIG and POWERFUL storm and appears to be reorganizing a bit. The main threat is flooding/storm surge due to the extremely slow speed of the storm. Any winds over TS strength will be bad due to the soft moist soil. This is not going to be good and is going to be catastrophic in many ways.
  15. GreensboroWx
    And you are basing this on what?? The eye is just covered by overcast and I believe it's reorganizing. I'm not saying it's to going to jump to a cat 5 or even a 4 but it still has to traverse across the gulf stream and many models show it holding its own or even strengthen a bit.
  16. GreensboroWx
    One has to remember this is a BIG hurricane and whether or not it's a 2 or 3 or whatever, the flooding potential is going to be unreal. Thrown in hurricane force winds and you have a disaster. I certainly hope the stall scenario doesn't play out but it's looking more and more likely Florence is going to slow down significantly either and creep through NC/SC or just offshore. Either way, it's just not a good thing for millions of people in its path or in its radius, which include me.
  17. GreensboroWx
    The Euro run is a worse case scenario for the SE coast of NC down through SC....the duration of the winds/rains would be catastrophic.
