  1. yeah, I just saw the source. No harm done then on his part, just a good idea to exercise critical thinking. I guess it's a new animal being able to generate fake snowstorm models now.
  2. If he saw it off of social media and perceived it to be real that's one thing, and is in some way understandable. Much more different than if he generated it himself to deceive.
  3. AI GFS is a slight improvement compared to 18z. 0.7" QPF at DCA, more to the Southeast.
  4. Hey, I think AI generating seemingly legit model outputs is crossing the line, but that's just my opinion. If anyone is wondering how this might be AI, look at the color table off to the right.
  5. These weather models we have at our disposal are an excellent storyteller. It's almost like they knew they couldn't fully cave one way or another at 18z and had to have us on deck for this 0z suite.
  6. Dare I say that the 3k NAM looks better than the 12k at hr 60? Of course it cuts off there so it leaves a lot to be imagined.
  7. I wish I was out here when that event happened. Was the sloppiest 3 inches of snow back home outside of DC. Was my first big track and I stepped outside in it and was like noooope. My dad got me SimCity that day though, that was a good highlight.
  8. Based on the 12z GFS so grain of salt but CIPS analogs are compelling. A few biggies mixed in with some northeast hits. Also lol at #1
  9. comical run-to-run difference. We'd have to hope it has a similar shift in store at 0z...
  10. My main fear with that is that he's got the late comedian in mind instead of the meteorologist
  11. Precip looks slightly lighter which is odd, but overall precip axis is further west than 12z, and h5 look is better. Seems like 0.7” QPF at DC?
  12. Honestly, we need some comical fall-off from this model if it won’t verify as-is. A cut down to 14” would feel like a gut punch because we know it would trend worse but have the outside hope that other models could compromise. A drop from 30 inches to a slushy inch in one run would be an all timer.
  13. It’s definitely marginal, but much closer to the solution we want than 12z.
  14. It’s honestly pretty close to a substantial solution. 0.5”-1.2” QPF extending from DC southeast with more still to come.
  15. Can we do this trend in reverse at the same range? Just one time, please? It is quite honestly incredible that the Euro and GFS might both end up showing incredible similar forecas busts one year to the day from each other. Euro shows blizzard at 84 hours = no snow, cave to GFS. GFS shows blizzard at 84 hours = no snow, cave to the Euro. Computer guidance is the great storyteller of our time, setting up heroes, villains, and a lingering sense of impending doom. Gotta love it.
  16. Jan 3rd 2022 as mentioned a little while back. That is the gold standard for reverse busts in the modern era, going from dusting Norfolk -> 8-12" DC proper at the 36-42 hour range. Nothing has come close since.
  17. translates to 0.3" QPF (Pre-IVT) in DC compared to 0" at 12z. I suppose that doesn't mean nothing, but yeah as you said the weak sauce precip translates to a weak sauce column.
