Upper level low thoughts

Just to make sure I am clear, because I don't know that I was overly so in my morning post. I feel fairly confident that there will be a strip of snow tied directly to the path of the upper level low behind the surface system.

The possibility of this accumulating snow will likely begin in north Mississippi tomorrow night and make it into North Carolina by Wednesday evening.

This is one of those deals where we are looking at a deformation band, a relatively narrow area on the northwest side of the upper air low. In this band, precip could be heavy, and dynamic cooling (cooling from aloft) will take place and allow for snow. But this will likely only be at most 75 to 100 miles wide, and could be anywhere in the area outlined below.

Only that 75-100 mile wide area will likely have the chance of accumulating snow...if you are not in that precise area (as obviously many in the outlined area will not be), you will not see much snow. But I have outlined the zone within which it is most likely to set up.

Upper level lows always contain surprises, thus it is the 'weatherman's woe.' As for amounts, a little early for that....I could easily envision a few spots within that band getting over 5 or 6" with most amounts less than that.
