CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA — Talk of a possible East Coast storm, and even snow, is spreading online as forecast models show a powerful system near the Southeast around Friday night into Saturday, November 13 and 14. The European AI model (AIFS) shows a deep upper-level low centered near north Georgia and the western Carolinas. Several of its runs also show low pressure forming along the Mid-Atlantic or Carolina coast. Forecasters say people should not buy the “snow dump” forecasts circulating on social media yet. The storm is still about a week away, and the model runs disagree on where the low will track and how strong it will be. The best advice for now is to keep monitoring.
