I am wondering if we will have any snow for Thanksgiving. I don't know much about forecasting weather other than watching patterns that other people point out to me. I have notice that the Pacific Jet is bringing cold air to use from the Artic airmass over Canada and that the Gulf is bringing some moisture up during this time. This type of set up has a name I believe but I don't know what it is called. I hope we do because I love snow and cold weather. So have one on me. pals Hopefully it's ok to start a thread about this?

Saw this posted elsewhere

from the NWS Nashville Facebook page
US National Weather Service Nashville Tennessee
I'm sitting here on a slow weather night poring over the latest atmospheric models with sudden great interest. Tuesday night could be eventful. Both the GFS and European models bring a deep low pressure system across the Gulf Coast, which is THE classic winter weather scenario for Middle Tennessee. At this time, we have rain/snow in the forecast for Tuesday night, which is the coldest part of the forecast. The forecast thicknesses suggest we may be a little too warm for all snow. But the GFS model sounding for Nashville valid early Wednesday morning shows a warm nose overlying a near-surface sub-freezing layer, which would give us freezing rain. This is still several days away, and the models do change somewhat from day-to-day, so don't go betting any money on a white Thanksgiving just yet. I'm just letting everyone know what we're seeing at this time. ‪#‎tnwx‬ (MAR)

The weather models are getting better. They now inherently know the screw zone that exists along the Memphis to Nashville corridor.

If I get a dusting out of this I will be extremely happy. I mean thats a lot for us to get this early compared to the last 2 winters total snowfall. We are not even in December and even then usually January is the colder month so long as we can keep whatever tapped for the precip this winter might will work out! cold

This is looking a lot like last years maps over again. One of those where ever you live maps. On a Mountain, live more toward NE Tenn. Just like last year. Is it going to be this way, this winter?. We will just have to wait and see....

The GFS (American model) continues to struggle in handling the SW energy as it comes to wildly different outcomes each run. However its ensembles tend to agree more with the european model. Here is the latest from the GFS (American model) on snow threat!

The Nam is close to what I think will happen. You are right! The gfs is to slow bringing out the energy from the sw. We will see. Very Happy

Here is an animated gif I made of latest (12z)european model at 500mb showing the classic phasing of northern and southern stream energy that usually results in significant east coast snowstorms

JKL/MRX are once again at odds on how this plays out.

Does it look like Nashville will see anything from recent models? Like even a dusting or what?

The euro and Canadian model are consistent. The Canadian puts down a little more snow for north of I-40 1-3 inch range. I like the Nam! The new 18z gfs looks retarded also shows now that it will snow in east tn thanksgiving day? Going to be interesting:wk: wacko

The energy for this storm is now ashore. In Cali so the models later tonight and in the morning will have a better sample. The problem is going to be how far north the gulf low forms. There will be a sharp cutoff with precip so if it is like the gfs says middle tn gets nothing. Wait and see! sneaky

The more I look at this the more I like it but the NAO is not real deeply neg so im trying to limit my expectations. The GFS is totally by itself but ive seen it score some upsets before so I wouldnt count it out just yet! If the Euro is correct then it will come down to the timing of the phase as to who gets the best comma head snow
