Ended up with 0.77" from the mini rain event, even after the rock um sock em thunderstorms that rolled through last night (around 7:30pm). Went to open my door to check it out and wham, it blew the door from my hand and against the frame! Needless to say I was enjoying the high wind (even though it lasted for 10 minutes at best). Now all focus is toward next week. Its funny how we get upset and bored with beautiful wx for long stretches on end but man I want some snow!

I know, but we had really not had any bad weather since last Winter, it has gotten very repetitive. I rains a bit, then we have 10 days of sun and mild temps. Hopefully as the saying goes, we will pay for all of the nice weather. :scooter:

LOL, Accuweather has me in Atlanta to look for Ice that Saturday night then am snow changing to rain on Sunday.

Myforecast is doing the same thing as InAccuweather for some of us with that early wintry precipitation.  It has your area for Sunday going from Rain to an Icy Mix and mine as from rain to snow.   :rolleyes::lol:

Sorry for the folks who didn't get as much as they expected out of this event. I got about 2" after all was said and done, not as much as was forecast but still a nice event.

Yeah, it looked to me like you were in the train for a good bit of the time I was dry slotted. I had 11/10's, but my friend over by I 75, had less than half an inch, so I got a hit that first night that even he didn't get. I'm ready for a big Gom low and a two day hammer. T

and to that the 12z Euro still isn't biting on the GFS solution for the massive cold outbreak across the states the middle of next week, though it might come around.

Although the fair thing to note i guess is the GFS cold snap doesnt come until after the time period the Euro runs in.

I can remember very, very few times the GFS has ever scored a coup over the Euro in the MR/LR.

Hasn't the GFS's long range performance increased since the upgrade? I remember last winter the Euro did well, but at least one storm the GFS ultimately did better than the Euro. Either way, going with the warmer/drier model tends to be best...

Here's the one I'm after.. lol

Just need the right kind of weather !!!!

everybody can send youtube videos out about Brick but you get harassed about a deer picture. Amazing the seriousness of some. I could understand it if it was a whole page of it or we were having a major system hammering us.

...By the way, does anyone have that JB link about the east coast getting something? Was he discussing this in his paid subscriber blog or is it something else? Just wondering...

There could be a closed high retrograding in Greenland toward Canada beyond days 10. But right now I'd consider that less likely than the alternative, until time draws closer with good agreement. If that did happen, the East would turn pretty cold, much like the GFS has, otherwise, for now I'd go with a sharp cool down, but not as much as GFS shows yet.

Big Frosty, subscribes, so maybe he can give some JB info. As for the gfs 18z run. Cold gets in here day 8 and until day 15, in fact it keeps NC below normal the entire period, then shows a lake cutter towards the end going by and probably reinforcing cold air towards SE. Have no access to euro day 10, so need someone who's seen it today to provide details in regards to LR in order to compare apples to oranges in the model world. Have to say gFS has been consistent in showing what I described above w/ regards to LR. It's getting under 10 days and still singing the same tune. Should be interesting if it holds serve and the cold deleivers around turkey day. Hopefully the pattern in the pacific evolves and locks in like the gfs advertises. As Robert alluded to a few days ago, this is how events (pattern) got underway last year. Sure it want lock in for 90 days like 09-10, but maybe everyone is missing some LR signal and we get lucky.
