OK ..... What percentage do you think trend NW? You say a high percentage .... does that mean you think that there is a high percentage of this one trending NW. Asking for a friend.

What about gulf rain storms? Hurricanes? There have been storms the past 10 years that everyone said would trend back this way and they never did. January 2018 was one. High percentage does not = 100%. You just like being argumentative anyway.

You learn that nothing is written in stone until a 100% model consensus is reached. That hasn't happened yet with this storm. Not being argumentative, I am just trying to understand your reasoning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a great met and has good pattern recognition skills. By the way, I pulled my shovel out of the shed ..... just in case the EURO/CMC camp is right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, GSP has my with a 40% chance of snow starting midday Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BooneWX Posted Saturday at 02:07 PM Share Posted Saturday at 02:07 PM Seems like the models are catching on to the WAA overriding the arctic airmass. I’d expect improvements to continue on the northwest side today and tomorrow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quickly trending towards the immediate coast or bust. Been a long time since we’ve seen a truly amped, robust system. Always chuckle when people worry about that (hasn’t been a concern for anybody in a long time.) Still intrigued by the NAM. Gonna be interesting to see if it latches onto the overrunning idea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WNC_Fort Posted Saturday at 10:37 PM Share Posted Saturday at 10:37 PM Only saving grace for me is that Catawba Falls has reopened. I look forward to going later in the week to see them frozen over. Otherwise, I'm glad we've had a chilly winter but just sucks not to have any snow to show for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sucks that places like Baton Rouge, Atlanta, parts of Alabama and now possibly coastal SC, NC, and GA will exceed our annual snow totals. I have been thinking about what I would grade this winter so far, the cold has been unexpected and it was nice to break the streak.. with that being said.. we didn't even verify winter storm warning criteria in that system and we are still in a serious snow drought. I would give it a B- if the season ended today. If it continues with no snow through the rest of winter, I would probably give it a C. Our standards have slipped more than a single 40 year old at Applebee's. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
