SnowNiner Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Has there been a fantasy storm/run for this midweek system? I must have missed it. First I heard of this. I thought the weekend was the next shown threat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Rain Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Has there been a fantasy storm/run for this midweek system? I must have missed it. First I heard of this. I thought the weekend was the next shown threat. It's not really a clipper, but it might as well be. Weak system that tracks north of the area and brings light snow to TN and the mountains. East of there, we see milky sunshine. Things could change, though. We could end up with partly sunny skies instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jburns Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 From how things look now, what should I be looking for trend wise to get some snow in northeast SC near the coast? Continental Drift. Too soon to start a thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brick Tamland Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Low track equals moisture starved though......we need it 300 miles further south....2M dews are in the single digits over the Carolinas so its really cold and dry.... Next Fri/Sat gonna be the one we all freak on....with cold in place after 4-5 way below normal days leading into it..... Would be nice if folks were talking about next weekend in the January thread.

NWNC2015 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 What is there to be confused about? I just looked at the 18z GFS and there is nothing there. I just need help if this is a legit storm threat are there several models showing it? Is there any real consensus anywhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southern Track Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I just looked at the 18z GFS and there is nothing there. I just need help if this is a legit storm threat are there several models showing it? Is there any real consensus anywhere? The 18z left more energy behind for the late week system,while the 6z and 12z did the opposite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bsudweather Posted January 16, 2016 Author Share Posted January 16, 2016 The wave in this time frame slows down a bit it appears on the 00z GFS, then at hr126 goes Poof! But we know how that goes it will lose a system to only bring it back within three days of event, Ain't that right Brick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWNC2015 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Maybe a dusting or more for north Georgia if the 12z GFS is right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldman75 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Is that moisture heading east? Not sure how the elevation effects it but temps look decent to maybe get snow in northeast sc/ southeast nc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldman75 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Ugh I can only hope the temps remain good for mby. It looks good from that frame but only time will tell. Should keep my interest tracking it at least unlike this Sunday's event Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bsudweather Posted January 17, 2016 Author Share Posted January 17, 2016 Well Wed potential still showing up on the GFS. Looks pretty good for WNC and the upstate. And we are almost within 4 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceagewhereartthou Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Well Wed potential still showing up on the GFS. Looks pretty good for WNC and the upstate. And we are almost within 4 days. That map doesn't look right to me at all. Snow and Ice south of the 540 line and what is with the 1027 H off the SC coast? Is there no low associated? The only thing a high off the coast would accomplish is to send the low to the lakes. Also, the eastern Canada High is too far north and weak to really help us much with the cold. Move that South about 800 miles and strengthen to 1030 or more and we might have a shot; that is if the H off the coast isn't really there.

The air mass is so cold for Mon and Tues, we are going to have stale cold and very dry air in place. This is just an upper disturbance , clipper type thing. Won't be a big deal due to lack of moisture anyhow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxBlue Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 It comes from Montana. Shouldn't make it over the mountains. If 850 hPa winds are strong enough, it could spill over peaks and into valleys of NC border counties. Euro was a strong NWFS event with 2-4 inches (10:1 ratio) among the border, thanks to westerly 40-50 kts winds into Eastern TN. I would be looking forward to this nice little gift if I'm a snow lover in WNC. Of course, if we're talking about beyond border counties, you're right. Downslope will rob the moisture for those farther east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One advantage this week is we will have cold air already in place. Maybe wed storm will trend stronger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
