A lot of us remember via news viral the flood that occurred in Waverly, TN last year.

That last piece on the 12Z GFS next Thurs night and Fri is interesting with frozen precip and snow possible once we get past the rain from the first couple of rounds.

Pieces 2 and 3 are both wintry on the 12Z CMC. But we know how woefully cold biased it has been. I can certainly see rain Tues and Wed but sometime Thurs / Fri, I am on the look out for wintry weather at the moment. I wouldn't rule that out currently. GEFS today shows a colder look also but even it too was too wintry with this current system and was also too cold. GFS was too far north, CMC and GEFS south. Euro actually has done the best with this particular system we are tracking today. That doesn't mean it will do well next time but with SW flow events Euro is typically better where the GFS does better with northern stream events.

Les the Euro finally got its act together on Monday with this system but even it took awhile to figure this one out. Had the big move south over the weekend but moved north earlier this week. So I give all the models a B because all had the system but their were missteps by all 3 models including the gfs being to far north and the cmc was closer with the track than the gfs but had the thermals wrong until about Tuesday. Next week will be fun and I will keep tabs down in SC

Hey Time , I agree to a point . I got to give credit when it comes to crunch time , 3 or 2 days out . So i give a slight edge to the EU, this time. BUt we all know that certainly hasn't been the case for our previous events

I agree w/Bgoney.. GFS has been doing well until now. With the change in the pattern and we are seeing more overrunning and SW flow events, let's see how the Euro does with next week. I'm going to give it a little more weight.

12Z Euro has mostly rain for both waves of precip next week. I hope that changes...

And im sure it will , concerning the late week event . Seems like we are on the tipping point of all scenarios for that one. I could see flooding rains continuing but just as easily I could see a wintry event happening.

Yep... you really can argue either scenario. We've got the cold highs we want in that 1045 to 1050 Mb range, but the orientation of the jet and the position of the SE Ridge are critical.

Guys I believe the speed of each system is critical. If we can get the first system through and have the high come pretty far south and then get a low to quickly works its way eastward this gives us a better chance that some cold will still be around. Getting a high of 1045 to 1050 is great and how much snow cover will be to the west next after the first system. If we can get a nice snow pack to our northwest that can help bring the high a little further south.

That is a good point also Tim.,.. wave spacing will play a role in terms of 500 MB heights ahead of each wave.

Kind of a model team effort. I think the Euro won for the low track. For precip, those 2" GFS amounts from the last 2 days could end up verifying.

Will be checking my gauge somewhat later as I plan to bring it inside whenever the changeover boundary gets more near Darke Co. :)

I know its a bit over a week from now but what are models showing for Sat Feb 26th? My dad has a 2nd time rescheduled "appt" with his sister to take care of some business in Indiana.

Interesting Les and another thing about the precip totals is the stronger winds really has not shown up this afternoon. What happens many times is the wind is energy but it can be transferred to other areas like heavy rains. We see this quite often in the winter and early spring where the models want to show severe weather but we end up with heavy rain instead.

Of course the squall line is coming through at the moment with the heavy winds and rain but at least its not going to be a long-lived wind event

Thurs and Fri is the question mark. GFS says winter storm Euro says all rain Dry and cold for Sat currently.

Les does the southeast ridge get beaten down enough by the first system is important as well. Especially this time of year as the southeast can send the warmth quickly into the area but if its beaten down some and the system behind it is moving in rather quickly the better chances for winter weather
