So much for the northwest trend right up to go time. TW

You must not be comparing to the 06z. Totals to the west dropped a fair amount. TW

All the way up here in Greensboro, it looks like flakes could fly at any moment. Disappointing to see the NAM pull back east. Maybe we'll get a flurry! TW

To me, it looks like a clear move back to the NW. Not a huge jump, but a clear NW move. TW

Some decently cold air stays on this side of the pole for the foreseeable future. The Euro shows some zr in cad areas later on. My thoughts are that those of us in central NC will find a way to nickel and dime our way to normal snowfall by the end of March. Having said that, it’s disappointing to still be just under 3” with nothing decent on the horizon. TW

The Friday storm is the ticket. TW

Canadian is warm and north. Hopefully we land somewhere in the middle. TW

Looked more like rain chasing moisture to me. Lots of time. TW

This situation seems a bit similar to Presidents Day 1979. The Presidents Day storm of 1979 we had snow start in Greensboro by 6 am with a temp in the mid teens. It snowed all day with temps dropping into the single digits with moderate to heavy snow and strong NE winds in the upper teens or more. We ended up with about 10" and a light crust on top as it tapered to freezing drizzle as the temp climbed to 10 or so. I'm not sure why they didn't issue a blizzard warning on this one, but it is in my top 2 favorites along with March 93. TW

I love -40 - it doesn’t matter if you say it’s C or F!!!!! As for -40 in Siberia, isn’t that a fairly normal January cold for them? I’m thinking it’s surely below average, but nothing near a record. TW

Back before Christmas there was talk of an SSW event around late Dec early Jan. I never heard much else about it. Did it ever happen? Since we know the cold often lags 3-4 weeks, I’m wondering if the Siberian cold we’re seeing modeled has anything to do with an SSW. Thanks in advance. TW

Quite the CAD Ice Storm on the 12z Euro from 312 to 324. GFS has a snow to rain even roughly around that time as well. TW

Icon pretty much stayed the course from 18z. tw

I think the HRR and the RAP at this range is well outside their wheel house. TW

This one is setting up just like a classic NC winter storm. All precip types - not a huge dump but a solid moderate storm. Hoping precip picks up a bit. TW
