  1. Haven’t looked into it at all, but delta t’s would at least be better than during Mon-Tue. .
  2. you’re on the wrong streets. being a meteorologist does not necessarily make you a professional, nor guarantee you’re good at your job. there are plenty of quality mets, and there are plenty of crappy ones that non-degreed people can outperform. some around here have clearly proven it both ways recently. .
  3. Little bit further out for the snow that continues out east... .
  4. Pointless not to extend it to the eastern side of the CWA now. .
  5. you agree, yet you’re the one that’s getting concerned about the smaller scale details. .
  6. It’s definitely a believable scenario. However, I would be cautioned regarding it until the 0z runs tonight. Currently the wave that leads to the increased confluence is well north in Canada, across the Northwest Territories and Nunavut. There is some sampling that occurs up there, but it’s sparse. For the 0z runs tonight the wave will have pushed south into Saskatchewan and Manitoba, which has a bit more RAOB coverage. .
  7. And the new 12z RGEM does exactly this... A bit less confluence in the Lakes/Northeast, which allows shearing of the wave to occur a bit later. This makes for heavier totals further east, east of the Mississippi...but also allowed for a bump north as well. .
  8. If the confluence can slacken a bit over the Lakes, that would likely help. However, that could also lead to a bump north as it pushes east of the Mississippi. .
  9. It’s just not supported right now. On just about all guidance (minus several ENS), the wave still peaks out west and then steadily shears...and that’s what we’re going to get if that occurs. We had an even in the eastern part of our region like this years ago, might have been late 2000’s. System shredded fairly rapidly. .
  10. 6z RGEM and GEM bumped north. 6z Euro. Still snowing from IA on east... .
  11. Still a decent spread on GEFS, but the mean remained fairly consistent... .
  12. 6z NAM bumped, but still has some work to do... 6z GFS remained solid... .
