We have the Cold air coming, thats one piece of the puzzle, but based off what im seeing in the GEFS guidance, the GFS operational should correct back to a more wetter pattern

Just keep the ridging away from the west coast and down into the Baja and we should be alright. Don’t like the look of the EPS/GEFS with ridging along the west coast.

We need a neutral to slightly negative PNA. Keep that +PNA crap away!

Nobody wants 20 degrees and dry lol

I’d take it in a heartbeat versus the crap we’ve had.

I think it's been great outside lately. Very pleasant.

20 degrees and snow - people will be outside. 20 degrees and dry - people will be inside praying their pipes don't freeze.

Slightly positive isn’t bad.

It’s been soupy and nasty to me. Hard to run outside in this.

I’ll go for 10 mile runs in 20 degrees

Even if it’s dry, I like to go outside and just experience the bitter cold. I find it very fascinating and thrilling. Now give me some snow with that cold and I’ll go nuts lol

Yeah, its not handling precip well. It's also probably 10-15 degrees too warm with a high that large.

With that said, SETX gets very cold.

Any idea how cold for SETX, and if we are sustained below freezing for a while?

I spent the day outdoors getting things done around our 2 properties ahead of a prolonged cold spell. Life here in the Smokies is a bit different than preparing in SE Texas. Our houses are built to handle very cold temperatures, but some things need freeze protection when temperatures are expected to be in the single digits or below. We have a bunch of Guests arriving beginning this weekend in our two Airbnb short term rentals. Some are coming to ski at our Cataloochee Ski Area which is 10 minutes away or coming to enjoy Tube World here in Town. Others are visiting to hopefully see snow and enjoy the Holidays in the Mountains!

It's in the time frame of when they usually loose it or go off the wall..give it time..no need to freak out yet lol

It hasn’t lost anything. Well I guess if you put stock in precip maps over 5 days, it waffles back and forth.

I

Trust in the Southern Jet.

Oh no!

I’ve had a lot more than I expected tonight. I thought about you and figured you’d be happy too

The times on here are often jacked up. Happens all the time.

This isn’t being talked about much but that next wave of cold (one before the big one) could make a difference.

Kinda similar to that first 2021 push before the bottom fell out.
