Congratulations Cpv17! Change can be a bit intimidating, but an increase in pay in the current inflationary environment is a positive thing. All the best to you!

12Z NAM coming in colder with frozen precip all the way to the coast.BTW this is a very similar setup to the "surprise" snow of December 2017. Glad to see the December 2017 event mentioned! Kudos Don for recognizing the synoptic setup. Overrunning precipitation over a very dense cold air ...

Good morning SE TX folks. I here y'all are looking for some snow. I'll be happy to share some of mine this morning here in the Smoky Mountains!

I believe it's time to separate all the long range speculation from the general SE TX discussion. This topic is specifically for Winter Long Range discussion and modeling beyond 7 days. All Long range posts in the December 2021 thread will be moved after today.

Volatility is going to continue within the guidance for the next couple of weeks. A lot of atmospheric changes are happening.
