SnowDawg Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Man I hope that happens. I will happily stay up Friday night for a nice front end thump of snow. Haven't seen snow on the ground imby since Jan 2022 and even though rain would eventually ruin it, it'd be nice just to see again lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckeyefan1 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 GSP Sat-Wed .LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... As of 140 PM Wednesday: As the weekend storm pulls away on Saturday night and Sunday, some lingering upslope mixed precipitation will be possible along the NC-TN border but not much impact is expected. Otherwise, conditions will dry out with near normal temperatures Saturday night through Sunday night. A powerhouse storm system will begin to take shape across the south- central part of the country on Monday. A deepening upper low will move out of the southern plains toward the Great Lakes states by Monday night and Tuesday with an associated anomalously strong surface low rapidly developing and moving toward the Ohio Valley. This system looks to have a variety of impacts across the area from Monday night through Wednesday. Precipitation will rapidly spread across the forecast area on Monday night. Most of this will be rain, but there may be some high elevation snow with some light accumulations through early Tuesday before a changeover to rain. Very strong forcing and an enhanced low level focus along an eroding wedge boundary, along with upslope flow and anomalous precipitable water will create a scenario with very heavy rainfall possible on Tuesday. WPC is forecasting 3-4 inches of rain across a large portion of the forecast area Monday night and Tuesday and that seems reasonable with this setup. Models project the warm sector of this system to spread into the lower Piedmont of the Carolinas and Georgia Tuesday, so there may be some severe weather threat as well roughly along and southeast of Interstate 85. Winds may also be a concern with the strength of the surface gradient, low level jet and cold air advection on the backside of the system. Expect an improvement in conditions, but with some wind and cooler temperatures on Wednesday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BhamParker Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Any chance the weekend system could continue to trend towards a snowier look for the mtns? Do yall think it could be frozen precip type for the whole event if you have elevation?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do yall think it could be frozen precip type for the whole event if you have elevation? . I'm not sure I'd invest the expenses associated with the weekend event in WNC at this time. Later in the month could be very promising though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Penland Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Decent returns but nothing is making it to ground here unfortunately Yall really can't win for losing here the past couple years down there. I thought for sure with the amount of moisture coming through it would bust through that dry level.I'm sure I'll hear it on the FB posts from the website over the next couple days LOL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
