Yes...but remember the higher the resolution, the greater the prob of error with each passing hour into the future...butterfly effect. It's still not in range to be taken verbatim, but trends is useful info. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fountainguy97 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Icing would be pretty devastating with ground temps like there are currently. ice would accumulate even at air temp of 33-34 because the ground is mid 20s 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 3.5" of sleet in northern Alabama. I just don't see that being realistic. Maybe it will be, but it just seems a bit "off" compared to even its previous runs which seemed a bit off. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those amounts will turn out the lights if they verify. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The RGEM will be my tie breaker Looks like whatever is going to fall will be frozen. Most of that falls at night in E TN. That 12z NAM run would be crippling. Let's hope folks get enough warning - if that is the case. That is 100x worse than 3-7" of snow. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NAM is stubborn, and it that is what is concerning. RIght now it seems our choices are either snow or ice or both. That run is a far more significant winter storm (in regards to impacts) than anything that has been modeled this week. If that is the trend, that is an icy trend and a concern. IMHO, that is a winter storm no matter how one slices it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 The 3k NAM managed 6" of sleet somehwere in the Upstate or SW NC. That just seems way too wound up. Seems like feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holston_River_Rambler Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Anyone have any thoughts on why the NAM is doing this? I guess I'm asking what process does it see that shoots the 850 winds and WAA so far north? Superficially (i.e me remembering all the runs I've looked at in the past few hours) nothing seems even close to it. Is it a convection issue? Is it how its handling a shortwave? I'm not saying its wrong, but I'd like to know what it is seeing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying its wrong, but I'd like to know what it is seeing. I think we wait to see the rest of the 12z suite before passing a verdict. To me, it looks too wound up. It looks like feedback. That is a bias of that model. The bigger problem is that the 12z NAM is by far the most significant winter scenario we have seen in modeling this week. The suck factor would be off the charts. If it isn't feedback, I do think it is because the storm has been sampled better. It started jumping around as soon as that northern vortex came on board. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modeling during the last 12 hours last weekend....came back south. Again, let's see if it has support. The alternative option (ice) would be rough. That could make rush hour a complete nightmare on the eastern side of the state. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
