You will need to navigate to the google map that has the station locations, I believe the one you'd want to look at is Martin Airport. From there you want Cobb output. That will give you a text output per model/run.

 Try this one too

It's not an assessment on winter precip chances for next week, just an objective review of the data...accumulating snow is rare in March.

Just to clarify...

Your argument is that it's rare to get an accumulating snow on any given March day, rather than that it's rare to get an accumulating snow in March in any given year. Correct?

My biggest concern is the surface. Last time we were waiting for a shallow cold airmass to come over the mountains it was an atrocious 10f warmer than the 24hr forecast on all models.  Have to wait until we're closer in to worry about this though.

I think the ECMWF high res wind map at wunderground shows why we're in for a cold surface - winds are coming from the due north once the front passes, it's not cold air coming from the west across the mountains which tends to be blocked by the terrain, but arctic air filtering down out of northern Canada.

Mother of all NCEP ensembles:  cross polar epic historic March cold from the Ukraine to Uhrichsville, Ohio and points south and east;

i'd be worried about sleet fest 2014 all the way up to the Mason Dixon line..

 

I've never seen a storm, where RICHMOND changes to frozen, before Roanoke where the area above h85 isn't WAY north of progged. 

 

With the slower solution, you're getting a slug of moisture overunning, and without a coastal to induce more cooling, that warm layer will take FOREVER to thin out.
