Where on the GSP site is that coming from?

It was posted by the Greenville News. 4pm update for today by GSP NWS: https://www.greenvilleonline.com/story/news/local/2018/12/05/greenville-sc-weather-forecast-snow-freezing-rain-sleet/2212447002/ Half way down the news article is where you will see the image.

Those are expected totals as of 7pm Saturday night. According to models, storm doesn't start cranking for another 9 to 12 hours

That was an unbelievably good run of the FV3...drops the backside wave in late and closes it off...big if true

Wow, yes this would keep it snowing around our neck of the woods for quite a while as the UL rolls just to the south of us.  No longer would need CAD in place as it's making its own cold air. Thundersnow?  Hmm

The snow total map is from GSP weather briefing. You can access it here.  They put it out in the morning and evening, sometimes midday if warranted.  https://www.weather.gov/media/gsp/YouTube/brief.pdf

It doesn't appear to be a static image that is found on their public site.  It's probably safer that way.  Just my assumption.

As natbright posted above, it is from their hazardous weather briefing page. It is located 2/3 of the way down on the left.

There is increased uncertainty Monday and Monday night. Low-level
cooling may occur on the backside of the low as it shifts farther
northeast. The models indicate wrap-around moisture but have not
been consistent with the moisture depth and the development and
placement of the cold upper system. Updated to change precip
type to snow showers in the evening...best chance remains to the
north. At least flurries in the south Midlands/CSRA as upper
trough moves over the area. Moisture becomes more shallow after
06z.

 

BAM!

How many winter storms have we had in the southern piedmont in the first half of December that are even close to what the models are predicting? For that matter how many winter storms in NC have been as big as what is being advertised?
