Upstate Tiger

Yeah I don’t know what we were thinking. We’re not in Pensacola where they get 8”-10” of all snow.

Go to Best Buy and buy a StarLink! I went and got one yesterday. That way we can still whine.

For much of NC, the GFS would provide some epic sledding. A couple inches of snow, couple inches of sleet, and some freezing rain on top and it ain't going anywhere.

Crazy evlolution of the system on the GFS but definetly a more favorable outcome for NC and SC.

Models handled the thermals on the 2003 PD2 terribly. We were told for 5 days to prepare for an apocalyptic ice storm but had a sleet storm instead.

Overnight trends not good. We’ve gone from January 88 to Presidents Day 2003. I do think the 06z GFS has a better handle on the thermals than the NAM or Euro at 84 hours. Still have a 1051 High in NY. The CADs not being represented well IMO.

Whatever verifies, I have never seen back to back model runs as epic for NC as the GFS runs today. 3 day winter storm. Feb 14 was close but this is nuts.

Not good for SC but a lot of that would likely be sleet.

Lot of similarities to the January 88 storm with this setup. https://www.weather.gov/media/gsp/localdat/TechAttachments/ta2001-02.pdf

Models hinting at another winter storm possibility the following weekend, 30/31st. Interesting period upcoming in the SE. Will have the LP tank refilled this week and test the generator for sure.

After about 15 minutes of sleet, finally gone over to snow in West Lincoln. Don’t expect it to amount to much but nice seeing it.

Early NAM run pops the low further west than the 12z. Edit: Not really different. I must be drunk.

Yeah but you are on here reading this thread like me and grasping away
