just looked at the progression of RAP model through hour 18. We're looking down the barrel of a very special event here. Look for your local forecasters and NWS offices to react soon, with more vigor. This is almost an unprecedented event, but March 2009 is the lastest we can find , I'm sure there are others. The upper low is taking shape now in western Mississippi and will close almost to 3 contours by Atlanta, taking on negative tilt. At first, the heavy rains, but the 850s' really crash in Alabama and Georgia, and this will spell a world of hurt when the moisture totally wraps around the 5H low, not to mention the 7H low. and 850. The track will absolutely cream eastern TN at first then spill quickly into western NC mountains and foothills by dark. The track of the 5H is probably mishandled by all models, as I've been saying for days. On the northwest side, you're looking at some convection and serious rates of snowfall. This will probably eclipse the 2009 event in parts of western NC and VA because this airmass is actually juicier than that one. Look at the water potential maps on this one, unbelievable. Turn that into snowfall in western NC and VA, eastern TN, and northeast GA and I think we could be looking at a really unprecedented event. Same goes for everywhere northwest of the upper low in northern Alabama, northern to central GA and then a nearly stationary band for Upstate SC to western NC for a while. The RATE of snowfall will be extreme, I can't express that enough.

So with all that panic has any scheduled recruit not shown up due to weather yet?

Lance I think was on that trip but Steve Rubio was the one driving. That was the same night as his "bone to bone" comment to heather Harrington

We got to play Florida late in the season in 2001, which was kind of a break... if you ignore the rest of the world.

ahhh you had to didn't you? I really wanted this thread to die and I wasn't about to start one for this weekend. Weather prognosticating on Volnation is a tough gig. Even though I pretty much nailed the forecast last weekend my title was extreme overkill.

Someone please start a new "ice ice baby" thread and let this one die
