Tons of precip wasted on rain and less precip in the places it can actually snow.

On the other hand, the other models are pretty good here in terms of liquid: 06z RGEM: 1.33" 06z 3k: 1.4" 06z 12k: 1.2" 00z FV3: 1.35" 06z GFS: 1.27" 00z GGEM: 1.26" Nice consistency. Euro is definitely the outlier here. This paints an event with 10-12 for the synoptic piece and then some backside upslope, maybe 3-5.

The 0z Euro was really lame. 06z is a little better. Turns this thing into a diffuse mess.

GFS colder but also weaker and it flies through the area quickly. Reminds me of the 12z Euro. Key for bigger totals in NNE will be the upslope. The synoptic piece should be good for up to 10”.

NAM looks great and has a solid upslope signal too.

I don't follow baseball that closely, but the "shift" is where the players in the field move around to take advantage of tendencies by certain hitters to always put the ball in play in certain spots, correct? Why is that being banned? If the hitters don't like it shouldn't they adjust? The fielding team just has to stand in one place now or something? I don't get this one.

I went to Wildcat today. Curiosity, I guess. They have very limited terrain open. Lynx was closed which was nuts to me. That's a core manmade groomer that already had bare spots... super bad sign. Basically only two paths down from the summit and that's it. Mixed bag on what was open, some spots had softened and were OK (not exactly packed powder, but skiable) and other areas were unworkable sheet ice. Spent a lot of time carving decent soft snow and then sliding 20 feet and then carving again. Rinse and repeat all the way down the mountain. The biggest shocker to me was how melted out it is at 4,000 feet. Bare everywhere. Looks like my front yard. Feels much more like 10 April than 10 March. No one is gonna be skiing Wildcat's legendary soft bumps in April this season. They will be shutting down soon if they don't get a bunch more snow or we get another warm cutter. The manmade trails are already thin.

Yeah, I feel pretty good about 10"+ now. This run kicks off some better NW flow upslope after the storm passes and that will be high ratio fluff here. The final .25" liquid can easily be 5" or more. It's how some of us in NNE really pad those stats. LOL

I don't live in Berlin, FYI. I frequently beat them by 4" or more in events like this. They do not get any NW flow upslope of note either. But good try. LOL This run has better precip up here than 12z which was weaksauce for sure. I am good with it verifying.

Appreciate the update. Keep me posted.

This was the best Euro run in a while here. I will lock it up right now.

Definitely no complaints about the Euro. It's a great run here. Better than 12z for sure.

That’s like having Italy as your ally in a world war.

Isn’t euro all alone now?

Nice juice-up from 12z on the GFS. Nice run here. Lock it in.

Hard to trust the NAM at all. It’s all over the place. 3k is a crusher though.

Deeper than today? Already feels like April.

Decent model spread right now for the time frame.

Euro flies through the area and ends up a decent but somewhat lame event.

Hopefully this thing Saturday is at least dynamic. I think we all agree if the storm is coming let it be interesting with winds, rates, duration, etc. Weaksauce spotty stuff is the worst.

Yeah GGEM looks nice but I’m right on the line too. I will take my chances. I want a lot of precip with this one.

I am waiting behind the Gorham Walmart to fight you guys!

It was awesome for me. There is a little city right down the road. Plenty of civilization around here.

Definitely an April blue bomb could be in the cards. early in the month would be good to make some good spring conditions for a few days.

All the cheap vinyl siding blew off my McMansion in the last cutter but it turns out there were beautiful whole logs underneath so it worked out I guess.
