Looks like the 12z GFS is quicker w/ precip and gets out ahead of HP whereas the 12z CMC has precip sliding along slightly behind HP. That high placement and precip timing makes for very different solutions.  For now, we take the GFS.  There is some concern on my part that cold air might get trapped in the eastern valley (especially north of I-40) if this rolls in at night.  The CMC looks to have a little bit of feedback over Louisiana in holding back energy, but that isn't totally different than the 0z Euro.,

Different time frames by just a few hours as both models(12z GFS and Euro) accentuate different waves.  12z is on the left and 0z is on the right.

This one is the low hanging fruit, IMO.   Close in, on multiple models, and has that "slider" look.  Weak wave FTW........................ for someone..................  hopefully.

Suppression is the trend.  Just need a little bit more! For those in the east, do we want the cold air to be coming from a more North to South angle like the 12z?  Seems coming from the west it would be more likely to get hung up on the plateau.

Lets keep in mind that it is just one run out of many. So much more to life than to hang out hats on one run lol 

Euro had it at 12z.  We are also talking the 105 hour....not day 7-8.  But yeah, definitely don't share a foxhole w/ the GFS.  We know how that turns out.

Nashville NWS is not impressed but typically it has to be snowing for them to call for snow so 

LONG TERM...
(Saturday through next Thursday)
Issued at 207 PM CST Thu Jan 26 2023

It stays dry into Saturday before the next rain systems comes in.
This will be a quick hitting system with rain leaving Sunday
night. Temperatures stay above freezing so it will just be rain.
Maybe a half inch give or take a bit. Dry Monday and then it looks
like the southern stream of the jet stream gets active. This will
mean several weather systems for our area. It predominately looks
like rain...however right now it looks like Wednesday night into
Thursday there could be some mixed precipitation...rain/snow/freezing...for
mainly locations along and north/west of I-40/65. This is many
days away so no reason to get excited. We will keep watching this
develop and the precipitation type and location will most
definitely waffle over the next couple of model runs.

It does look like it will be wet for the second half of the
extended forecast. Right now storm total QPF for Tuesday through
Thursday night is 1.5" to 3".
