In this case it not only sees it but has it almost to the metro. The CMC which tends to have better resolution on that feature has the mixed precip back into Bama Agreed. CMC is a very good model with CAD situations. It’s idea has some validity even if it might be a touch over done. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowmaker13 Posted Monday at 05:25 PM Share Posted Monday at 05:25 PM Euro better be more amped. idk if this snow weenie can take another snowless winter. haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottk Posted Monday at 05:26 PM Share Posted Monday at 05:26 PM Is there at least agreement on the timing of this event? And if so, what is that timeline roughly? I’ve been following the maps being posted but not sure I understand everything. I’m in NE SC (not optimistic on the chances of winter weather here) but am supposed to be in Charlotte Saturday night through Sunday, so trying to figure out the likelihood of that being a possibility… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course this could change, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is actually a reasonably accurate map when considering their other variables of <0C 850s, temps of 32-33F, and plentiful qpf of 0.6-0.7”. If that were to verify, it would be slightly more than they got in Jans of 2011 and 2002. The last time ATL officially got 5” was in Jan of 1992 though the northside got much more in March of 1993. So, I wouldn’t bet on this much occurring at this point, especially with other models having much less due to warmer upstairs like at 850 mb. It is a high outlier for snowfall in that area compared to other models though it has shown it on the last 3 runs: 4”, 3”, and now 5+”. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowDawg Posted Monday at 05:52 PM Share Posted Monday at 05:52 PM Euro is actually much colder in the mid-levels than the GFS was just need better rates. I wouldn't expect as wild of run to run swings from the Euro, but at least it was a tick in the right direction. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted Monday at 06:23 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:23 PM 12Z Euro: Due to light precip moving quickly into antecedent very low dewpoint air, it has an interesting period early in this storm with mainly ZR along with a little sleet Fri morning within an area of central GA including Columbus, Macon, Sylvania, and Statesboro. @Shack Dewpoints at 12Z Fri: still as low as mid teens as precip moves in qpf 12Z to 18Z Fri coming right into that very dry air Even at 11AM, temps are still down at 32F with the precip falling along with cold mainly NE flow in EC GA (winds not off the much warmer ocean): Result are these precip types with an emphasis on ZR in central GA: This is mainly a curiosity now but does show things could get interesting unusually south if the precip comes in early enough there on Fri morning. The Icon and GFS are similar. Here’s the GFS radar simulation as of 12Z on Fri: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKY_WX Posted Monday at 06:26 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:26 PM Just from past experience, these runs have the look of a model attempting to resolve a phase or cut off low. I've seen this too many times to ignore. I wouldn't be surprised to see them slowly trend more amped on the backend as the SLP moves towards the Atlantic. It's almost impossible for the models to sort out the various Canadian shortwaves this far out. Given the Atlantic pattern, it's pretty likely this will bomb out, but as far as where remains to be seen. Could be way out into the Atlantic, or it could be off of NC. Doesn't necessarily mean we will benefit from it. 4 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
