  1. Main wave is handled differently. It started off SE for western sub-forum, then corrects a bit NW for eastern sub-forum.
  2. Wave less amped and sheared faster. South it goes.
  3. Add in the GEM ENS are down to only 4 of 20 members being more amped/NW.
  4. This reminds me of the classic NCEP vs foreign model guidance battles of many years past, which almost always ended in an NCEP failure.
  5. Pivotal is my choice for most data behind a paywall, but WxBell does offer much more.
  6. Very solid agreement between the OP Euro/GEM/RGEM, with the UKMET just a hair north of that consensus.
  7. Comparing all of guidance, the difference in the more NW NAM/GFS vs all other SE guidance is not tied to just one thing being different. The SE camp is different with all five pieces that are of focus for this storm system. That's fairly significant for being only ~36 hours out from the main storm system moving into the sub-forum.
  8. Interestingly enough, the poorly performing 12z UKMET bumped NW and is now further N than the Euro.
  9. Neither of them are more accurate. A middle ground approach is always best when dealing with favorable ratios. .
  10. Indeed there are solid lapse rates shown and elevated cape correctly positioned as well. Another thing you like to see are high omega values, especially located within the snow growth zone for efficient snow production as well. There’s a nice overlap in this case. .
  11. Differences in the NW and SE solutions continues to revolve around the lead wave moving across Canada Tue/Wed and also a wave that stalls over the Northern Rockies and the eventual progression of it. All of the above is fully onshore and sampled. .
