TellicoWx Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Before everyone cliff jumps lol...while not good, any shift in the LP generation will have big impacts on East TN. Models don't handle lee side genesis well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carvers Gap Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 The 0z 12k NAM at 39 is well west of the 18z run. Just looks overly amped - like way over the top stuff. It might be right...but it might not. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carvers Gap Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Just looking at the 500 vort map stuff, looks like the front on the GFS/NAM combo is a lot stronger than most of the other models. It is pulling the storm well west...just not sure how believable that is, but also illustrates just how difficult this is to get right. "Low confidence" has been my phrase all week. Yep...pretty much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 The NAM is a little drunk. 996 lp in Ohio at 42, 993 in WVA at 48. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulls it right up the windward side of the Apps and cranks it back over eastern OH: Let's hypothesize for the moment, that this is pivot point on these runs. If this is the furthest west the NAM goes, is there a scenario where the MSLP tracks like this, and we split the difference between the east and west solutions: And, to be fair, the rum has had it's effect at this point and this could just be a cast 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Honestly the NAM looks basically the same as it did at 18z. Just less aggressive on the backside with precip this run. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 The panel that throws things off on the NAM vs 18z is the panel that pops a low briefly in Ohio. That same panel at 18z had the low in SWVA and it was snowing hard over the Eastern half of the state. The panels prior and just after are virtually no different than 18z.

It could be a trend setter or it could be an outlier. Just seems like the NAM's really amped line of storms is cutting off moisture transport behind the front, and thus lowering totals. Is the cold front slower when diving into the front or is it a lack of moisture behind the line of storms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 I think we are looking at a powerful front/storm which modeling just is having trouble getting a handle on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1122 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 The 3k 00z actually evolved very similarly to the 18z regular NAM. Low from Central Alabama to SWVA to WVA. No strange Ohio low. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1122 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 HRRR really blasts the southern Plateau and eastern middle. But seems to hang the cold up on the Plateau.
