There’s been and continues to be no indication of a killing freeze (outside of the mountains, of course). Also, the last few GFS runs haven’t been as chilly. But I’m still looking forward to a reprieve from this week’s heat. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaWx Posted Monday at 06:47 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:47 PM The effect of SSWs down here (which in the current case will end up as a final warming similar to that of 2016 in that the reversal looks to remain through the warm season) often start with warmth followed by BN temps. The upcoming week will be an absolute torch before the cooldown. 0Z GEFS NAO forecast: 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The foothills and maybe even nw piedmont of NC have a shot of freezing temperatures the next couple weeks. There will be at least 2 cool downs during this period 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy looking at extended models and seeing how much snow is forecast across the US over the next 2 weeks. Indication of how cold will be in the lower 48. The pool will be frigid when it is opened in May. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and the Forecasts will most assuredly be warmer as they adjust to climatology. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted yesterday at 02:44 AM Share Posted yesterday at 02:44 AM Per FFC for Atlanta for April 4th: FRIDAY MOSTLY SUNNY. HIGHS AROUND 90. If this verifies at KATL, it would be the earliest in the season 90 on record by a whopping 19 days! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dropping to freezing in this next cold snap would be right around average, so I would say it shouldn't take "Barney" cold to get there. Models sometimes under do cold from radiative cooling, especially for the Sandhills, which typically would come the morning after the coldest day on models. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upstate Tiger Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago While we are near 90 on Saturday, west Texas will experiencing a major snowstorm. Imagine jumping on a plane in Charlotte in sweltering heat and landing in Amarillo and a snowstorm? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I'm more or so watching the second more substantial cold front that really dives down on the 11th that's been shown on the Euro for several days. That could give us in the mountains some substantial flow snow so late in the season. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loving this warm start of spring, but yes, the next couple of weeks after this Saturday will kill the swim season. Looks warm again 3rd and 4th week of April though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzook Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago GFS backing off the cold a little as of this morning. Is it lining up with the Euro now? Or is that getting slightly warmer? Yes, we will be below normal, but seems like not as severe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
