Way too amped for this range. I like how it was at 0z. But at least it’s still showing something.

The NW trend begins!!!

If this storm happens it is going down in history as the Brick storm. Never have I seen such a bullish, foolish, weenie ish call but damn if he might be onto something. 

06z GFS has a massive winter storm for the entire SE. like massive. 

06z GFS about to go boom

Yes but the dry ones are mostly misses to the east/south, suppressed. That is a good miss to have at this range.

Most have the storm. That’s all we need for now

27.2 this morning and 53.3 this afternoon. First 50’s of the year 

Need ensembles to tick back up. Happy to still see the storm on some ops runs but a lot of the excitement last couple days was (I know the EURO and GFS mega storm runs reeled in a ton of folks) due to strong ensemble support for the timeframe

Yep. ENC keeps getting pounded every run.

Honestly an impressive string of runs for ENC

Looks a little like the ICON run. Best thing is we have a storm showing up on different models. Plenty of time to iron out the details and there will be lots of back and forth between now and next week.

8-10 days out: pattern recognition. Pattern looks favorable for a winter storm threat. Box checked

Canadian also has a storm...

This setup actually gives Deep South areas like yours a shot if one of those Siberian 1045+ highs moves into the lakes and not straight down. Cold might overwhelm the storm track for most but it could get unusual areas into a storm chance 

Prophetic

ICON had some wintery precip at the end of the run.

 

Same setup as last week except with a HP in correct spot

 A general model cold bias that includes the SE US is always a factor that should be considered because it often (though not always) leads to less cold air verifying vs what is shown, say, 8-10 days out (like what happened last week…keep in mind those extreme runs with widespread single digits to middle teens) and consistent with that storm tracks correcting to reality further NW (like also just happened as instead of offshore the SE coast it was mainly well inland). 
 

 But every case is different. So, we’ll see. For one important thing, how strong will the strongest 1/19-23 Arctic high actually be? If it ends up there’s a 1050ish coming down that maintains itself well into the 1040s for quite awhile and keeping in mind Siberian cold would be involved, that would favor deeper into the SE wintry precip possibilities and thus affect more people though it could also end up dry. I’d rather have the big high and see how it plays out.

He was referring to the 0z run of the monster. At 6z, it's gone. 

Correct. Should have elaborated 

There are two opposite but very possible ways to lose and both are shown on models. 
1) Suppression: our system is squashed by the extreme Arctic airmass and we miss out. I really don’t think this will happen. I think the cold airmass is likely over modeled and we will see some relaxing of the cold push as we get closer

2) Cold hung up west of apps. I know this sounds funny given the Euro extreme cold but we’ve seen this tune before and Canadian demonstrates it perfectly. There are some hints of a SER forming this weekend and we should be well acquainted with those impacts and setting the frontal zone up over the Carolina’s versus over or off the coast. You end up with an overrunning event for the Tennessee valley. I am much more worried bout this than suppression with the ridge orientation out west and lack of blocking over the North Atlantic even after this weekends rain storm
 

There will be cold and moisture during the 19-26th period but there are clear cut ways to lose that are quite opposite of each other. Something in between is our path to victory. 

EURO AI has a monster storm

There are few truths in life, but weenies weenying at D10 GFS runs and NAM crushing weenie snow hopes are two of them

I have had one for almost 20 years. Why do you think I'm on here so much?

This made my evening. I might have an affair with the GFS if this teasing continues. So damn hot right now 

Beautiful storm on happy hour run. Parks the deformation band over the triangle for half a day think we’ll take that look lol

I mean that screams SE winter storm threat. If you had to draw a snow distribution for a significant SE storm it would be that footprint 

Given January thus far and what is modeled for the remainder of the month, most on this board look to not only finish the month BN, but WAY BN in the temp department
