Northward, ho!

>> Thursday, February 11, 2010

The American models have consistently shifted the precip fields northward over the past 4-5 runs...something you had to imagine was a strong possibility based on the climatology this season thus far.

By the way, the DFW metroplex is really piling up the snow....they could top 10" tonight.

For this evening, I will stick with the idea I have out there of some minor accumulation being possible roughly from I-85 and points south and east in North Carolina. A nice snow event is on the way for much of Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina. North Carolina is tougher...but I do think some points could wind up with some accumulations.

I will cut a new video in the morning and have a full blog post for you...I will also put out any necessary accumulation maps tomorrow morning.

Have a great night!

The 18Z GFS is really showing the QPF blossom over NC now! This is a great sign! Maybe some snow for the foothills/Triad in addition to the Charlotte/Triangle areas. I anxiously await the 00Z runs tonight. Let it snow!

Great Scott!!! The Carolinas had better get ready. At 30 hours, the low is bombing east of the GA coast. The pressure is down to 988 and the low is positioned closer to the coast!!! The precip shield is significantly further north and west than even the last run. It's starting to look like I am going to get a storm here in Richmond!!!

JMA nabbed this thing first then the GGEM. We looked @ those models and said "if only." Now seems like they are winning the battle.

I don't check your blog for a couple days and look what happens!

Lesson learned - thanks for the information.

Peace,
Carrie
