The monster run is back on the 18z New GFS run:

Wow.

I'm curious, what website are you getting these models from?

Tropical Tidbits, pivotal weather

Tropical Tidbits, pivotal weather

Thanks man

Morning run does not look ideal for the southern valley.

Not ideal in that it won't snow much, or not ideal from the perspective we might see a lot of winter weather?

Predictions here in SWVA range from 5 inches to 18 inches. Real helpful.

Can I ask why the local weather is not really reporting this? Seems odd a potentially significant event like this is getting no run

Idk. Some Mets like the fun and some are just old school. It's drawing a lot of criticism there way. But if they guessed big and was off they'd get thrown to the pits of hell.

I selfishly want some snow.

 

[WallyBalls]

I selfishly want some snow.

You and me both. The more the better.

 

[mrorange211]

Yes but is it actually going to snow. I have serious doubts

 

[Vol knight]

I'm getting a little more concerned that this could become an ice issue.

 

[Vol knight]

I will say that if you are in the Southern Valley (Sweetwater, Athens, Chattanooga, Cleveland, ect), then I would keep your snow expectations low.

They just keep circling it around from rain, to sleet, to snow, back to rain, it's a fun cycle!

 

[Vol knight]

I dont know why Morristown keeps forgetting that the Northern Plateau is part of the region. In there latest discussions, they talk about Northeast TN, Mountains, and the Valley. It's like they wait until the last moment to talk about the plateau.

 

[RDU VOL#14]

I’m no weatherman, but you can expect more than a few inches this weekend.

I can't say anything with certainty yet, as there's still time for some changes, but as of right now, I'd say a few inches.

 

[rocktopper16]

Iceeee.

I’m hearing different things about Raleigh/Durham. Some 4-8” and others 12-18”. Probably somewhere in between? I’ll be so pissed if it’s 34 and rain. Typical Piedmont weather.

It's a nowcast event man. The models can't make there mind up. Someone is gonna get it. Just where is the question.

Gotcha, even having the discussion at this point in December is unprecedented around these parts. At least the idea of having a decent accumulation.

Where I live they'll call for cold rain and we'll get two feet of snow.

 

[Matt2496]

Will Knox county get anything?
