Upper air low moving through...

>> Wednesday, January 26, 2011

Here is today's edition of the Carolina Weather Video. I talk about our current system, where the snow will occur, and where we go from here....




Running way behind this morning, but no major changes to the overall ideas. You can see my map below. I think some wet snowflakes are possible really anywhere across the Piedmont, with the best chance from I-40 and points north.

I do still think some slushy accumulations could occur in the northern foothills and Virginia border counties as we head through this afternoon, and I think parts of the mountains will get a really good thumping out of this. Many mountain spots had already kicked over to snow as of 9am, and they were still in the southerly flow part of the system!

As the colder air aloft moves in, that is when the potential for snow will spread in. I also enjoyed seeing a few storms around this morning! Great stuff....

Below is my accumulation map...no overly significant changes from yesterday. You can see the strip of really significant accumulations will run from the mountains up into the Virginias and southern New England.

Hey Matt,
what is your thoughts on the front coming out of Texas for next week? do you think the low will be there for snow in the atl, ga to athens, ga area? I am a want to be met and have been looking at the 12z gfs and the euro. the front looks promising depending on the low. what are your thoughts?

Matt, what is going on with the GFS? The 12z run is going loopy with next week's storm. I hope we can get a good snow since such cold air is near!

Thanks for the report, Jeremy.

Euro continues to look interesting for next week.....brings precip in later Monday with good cold air damming in place. GFS is in the remote ballpark as well. After that, they diverge big time.

I will spend a good bit of time on next week in the video and discussion in the morning...
