John1122 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 If this event plays out as it's currently being modeled, hats off to the GFS. As of 00z the Euro has completely caved to the snow axis it's been spitting out for 8 consecutive runs. This also feels like a bitter blow to our winter chances. Hard to watch the rare time when we'd all be all snow with no warm nose or mixing issues and the storm pulls a once in 50 years shot and goes hundreds of miles south of here. Especially staring down the barrel of a 2-3 week heat wave looking at the +15 degree warmth we're facing in the longer term. Oh well, hopefully Atlanta gets 6 inches. They've not managed that in 35 years and have only had something like 10 3 inch or better snows in 100 years. It makes sense I guess. The Heat Miser did pass away last week. Snow in Southtown on tap after that happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighKnob Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 When the storm maps post as "kuchera" is that a straight 10:1 ratio or does the kuchera factor in the varying temps and ratio? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tnweathernut Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Anyone else wonder why DT makes a snow map? Why doesn't he just copy the EURO snow charts and roll with it.......... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Not sure when we will get to track another storm. This one wasn't a block buster for most of us, but it's one time where almost everyone in the forum area probably saw snow today. With the way the valley is laid out its hard to pull off an end to end monster, but it's happened before and will again eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnweathernut Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Well, the GFS OP looks pretty tasty at 500 toward the end of its run. Would be nice to see things go that way...

nrgjeff Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 LOL sounds like me ranting about CHA. 7/8 wind directions are downslope! Seems JC and Kingsport have a zero-sum game on wind direction, unless a synoptic gem gets everyone. Even then they tend to take turns as winds gradually back with time. Oh what fun!
