Carvers Gap Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Looks like the slp is slightly faster and slightly SE of 0z. The allowed the banana high to hold in place. I will try to drop a comparison in here in a minute. Place is running really slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Ridge Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Forgive the brief IMBYism, but models are once again honing in on Greene Co. as the battleground, with a gradient of >6" to upwards of 1' from west to east. Classic. For much of East TN, this may well mirror Dec 18-19, 2009. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I believe the system will be fully sampled for the 0z runs, including the piece of Northern stream energy. Hopefully better news comes for more of the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 @Blue Ridge, I agree w the 09-10 comparisons. I think blunder had even mentioned that as well. Here are the comparisons from 0z(top) and 12z(bottom). You know the 6z off-run of the Euro signaled the nudge south. It looked like it was coming north early in the run as temps warmed a hair compared to 0z. That said, the precip shield was noticeably flatter.

caitsaunt Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I've read every word of this thread, I'm enjoying following the speculation. I have a question about travel, too. I am driving from Opryland to Chattanooga Sunday morning. I'm mainly worried about Monteagle - any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 This morning Huntsville WFO was pretty bullish for the 850 low/clipper giving them a decent amount of snow. So I feel like there's still hope for our southern areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 As a bonus, the EURO spits out .25 or so of freezing rain just over my area with some sleet totals approaching an inch in the area too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This 12z run leaves the door open and let's you know not all corrections are going to be north with this storm. Just get the 850 low beneath TN cruising west to east, and let's see that happens.

Carvers Gap Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 At this point, it is all about trends and then looking at ensembles. That was a good trend at 12z by the Euro, even for folks north of 40 w/out snow in E TN. The snow axis came south. Going to be a sharp cut-off in NE TN. I have been on both sides of that line. I have no confidence which side I will be on yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm kinda at a loss on that run, looked great but for some reason it shoots the 850s up the valley at 90/96...trying to find the driver for it and at a loss. If not for that it would have been a great run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TellicoWx Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Very weird couple frames...it wants to jump the 850 vort (that is traveling due east) in northern MS/AL, into the KY/TN line due north at a 90 def turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Interestingly, that is not the only snow event on this run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 ZR/sleet removed Euro snow map. I found this interesting, the little snow hole in Eastern Claiborne County in the middle of the pink and purple is a small area that the Euro shows getting almost 2 inches of sleet. Same in that blue strip in Bell County Kentucky just north of Middlesboro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carvers Gap Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 There are places in NE TN that received 5-8" more later in the run. The 10d total map is ridiculous for up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it does, that was just the map I was able to find! I do like that that site seems to do well removing the sleet/zr from the equation.

If that run verifies, we are going to get a mess along the northern border from your region over to TRI. It will be lots of precip types. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I somehow missed this post. Agree. Yeah, if this moves in at night and traps the cold air in the Valley...there may be places to our south that deal with some ice until the warm nose kicks in. For northern areas, they may struggle to get above freezing(northern Plateau, SE KY, SW VA). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TellicoWx Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 After looking over everything, I believe the Euro is having some problems on how to handle the transfer to the coastal. When it begins it's transfer over N AL, it splits the low into two distinct pieces #1 due North to the middle TN/KY border, #2 ESE into GA heading for the coast. The transfer should have been more smoothly. Due to this odd scenario, it shoots the 850s way up over East TN responding to the #1 piece. A smoother transfer and this would have been an even more major storm for the board. Sorry for the long post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bango Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 The duration of the event is pretty awesome, with some regions east being in the midst of a 50 plus hour event depending on the east coast track Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
