  1. that is a monster LLJ too on the Euro...and one that encompasses a large geographic area
  2. What's interesting on the EPS is you see the two clustered areas that you mention, however, then there is a convergence of the two camps backing in west.
  3. IDK...Euro has that look of backing in. Maybe it ends up east of previous runs but that H5 look through 120-126 seems to scream getting tugged in
  4. Yup and at this point strength is not necessarily important. In fact, if one is looking for prolonged impacts you'd probably not want this getting as deep as it can get because that would probably result in a quicker occlusion. But because of the potential anomalous track of this system, the angle in which this may bank in is going to be more of a player versus strength.
  5. GEFS east but still a ton of spread and some interesting members. The GFS does have an east or OTS bias with coastal's though not sure if really only applies with winter and dealing with Arctic airmasses. If 12z euro is similar to at least yesterday's runs this is going to be a hell of a battle between the suites. One of them is going to get totally schooled
  6. Yeah ICON is pretty wild. That's an impressive warm core system and it takes forever to occlude
  7. Probably would be looking at some serious coastal flooding across eastern MA and particularly the Cape and along the north facing shore of Long Island
  8. I'm glad it's not the following weekend. I'll be at an outdoor event in New York (though lodging is indoors) but that would totally suck.
  9. That would be some widespread power outages on the Euro...yikes.
  10. Wind fields are quite impressive and would be with such a storm so definitely need to keep an eye on given the trees are fully leaved still.
  11. Definitely pretty interesting end of the week...can't rule out tropical given warm core but certainly could be looking at a hybrid type
  12. Do you know if there are discussions within the NWS about a potential future of probabilistic warnings? I am currently taking a Weather and Society class (which is extremely interesting) which involves reading alot of research papers. I guess there has been some work and studies done about probabilistic tornado warnings, where you have your deterministic warning polygon but within the polygon is color coded probabilities of being directly impacted by the tornado. I have many mixed emotions about anything probabilistic in terms of public communication, especially with something like warnings but the results of such studies are actually a bit intriguing in that they may help influence (positively) people's decision making and action taken. Would the NWS ever consider such approach?
  13. Yeah, I'm just not sure how much I buy it. We've seen plenty of times, especially early in the season where guidance gets way too coastal happy. I'll say though, I am not looking forward to Fall or Winter weather forecasting. I don't think this has gotten the proper attention this deserves but the reduction in balloon launches I think is going to have severe negative impacts on models and forecasting. In fact, we've even seen it this summer. There have been multiple instances where local NWS offices in the central Plains/Midwest and I think even from SPC where they noted the reduction in launches having a significant impact on even short-term severe forecasting. I know we have better equipment and technology from satellites but balloon launches are still a critical part in the modeling process.
