@13Calendar Uh No. That’s 1 extra months rent and bills per year. Seems like a corporate scheme

@MatthewCappucci This person doesn’t care that it was a pine that crashed into his bedroom. He’s just happy to be alive

Novel idea @NFL Push the season 1 week and make Super Bowl the Sunday night before Presidents’ Day. Calling out of work problem solved

Yes, we are aware the latest Euro run shows snow in GA beyond our 7 day forecast next weekend.
It’s 1 run of 1 model. Of its 50 ensemble members only 2 show snow like the operational run or 4%. For now, it’s an anomaly. We wait for a trend before getting excited

[Keith Stellman @KeithStellman]

It really is an ideal DGZ setting up

[NWS Atlanta @NWSAtlanta]

Beautiful snowflakes observed just across the GA/TN border in Cleveland, TN!❄️
Could certainly see something similar early Saturday as the temperature & moisture conditions we will experience are ideal for snowflake structures like the ones seen below.

3 models 3 similar 700mb patterns and RH picture. The result is finally some consistency in the QPF and resultant snow pattern. Short of some curveball, ie strong mesoscale features which concentrate snow totals, we should be able to hone in on the picture now.

Ok Rufus. Glad you could join the party
Better late than never I guess

@ZachNagel7 Touchdown +2 pt play converted

Bring us home 00z NAM3k ❄️❄️❄️

Latest 20z HRRR run laying the groundwork for a serious snow band to start the day in Atlanta 7-10am. Low level winds clearly showing the convergence which has the mid and upper support. Origins of the convergent band NE metro appear terrain induced

[Keith Stellman @KeithStellman]

Snow in GA will come down to the precise route the 700mb low takes. Shown here are the big 4 at 18z sat: note not only the subtle differences in the center of the low, but also the differences in moisture. The corresponding snow totals are tied to this.

[Keith Stellman @KeithStellman]

Tricky fcst on tap for GA this weekend, but the Euro ENS mean showing a deeper and further west trof over the past 4 runs. Would equate to more snow potential further west and a possible frontogenetic band. Time wil tell.
Profiles suggest 15:1 or more possible..if it snows

@MLFootball I seem to remember the Rams winning an important game, oh say, 6 years ago on a non PI call. Kinda sucks doesn’t it

[Keith Stellman @KeithStellman]

@awfulannouncing As a Saints fan, i guess it’s just tough luck Rams 🤷‍♂️

[Keith Stellman @KeithStellman]

Among the top hurricanes to ever develop in the Atlantic. Will make a run at the strongest to ever make landfall in the Atlantic basin #Melissa

@MatthewCappucci Mmmm I’d want to see the details behind the dewpoint sensor used here. We see errors in them all the time, particularly amongst a certain class sensors.

@EliotJacobson Tonga effect on due to an enormous amount of WV injected into stratosphere. WV is far more efficient a GH gas. Coincidence? I doubt it

[Keith Stellman @KeithStellman]

@Cthullu_Call @HustleBitch_ Tonga eruption wasn’t just any volcano. And its effects are short term
