18z GFS a bit of a step back, depending on location. A little worse for me, but still close to 2 inches, but better for S DE, damn near 4". I might consider a trip to Rehoboth since I'm off for MLK day.
I mentioned this in my earlier post wrt the GFS- it has had this general area situated under that region-also a more impressive jet streak than the Euro.
And all the sleet
That storm was annoying even as it turned out to be great. Hours of sleet in the middle. Could have been damn near 3 feet here instead of 20" or so. Can't recall the exact total.
So what you are saying is- both the 12z CMC op and EURO op are now more like the GFS op, with some snow for I-95 and east. Seems like a favorable trend.
eta- I should say- the 12z EURO has joined the 12z CMC and now both are more like the GFS
Yes the wonderful UKMET and its mysterious 'great scores' Rarely see it mentioned in a NWS forecast discussion.
I gotta keep promoting my storm just in case...otherwise if it does produce, unlikely as that may be, the peeps will say I gave up on it.
Just looked further upstairs on the GFS and I think the snow its developing over eastern parts of our region is driven by the upper jet- right entrance region of a pretty impressive jet streak aligns with the location where the snow falls. Euro is weaker with that feature. That might explain the persistence on the GFS despite the low position being pretty far offshore.
The way it looks on the GEFS we could initially have some rain/ice and then as the deeper cold comes in we end up getting some snow. Pretty loaded look though with all that moisture.
Verbatim this would be snow on the mean for the region with the colder air in place.
