Maybe I looked at too many maps the past two weeks. Look at the latest NAM highs: are lower than I thought were forecast for this week. WB 12Z 12K NAM for 4pm Tues, Wed and Th.
At least the NWS is not saying partly sunny for Sunday anymore!
Sunday
A chance of rain and snow. Cloudy, with a high near 39. Chance of precipitation is 50%.
NWS forecast for Sunday shows the uncertainty in the forecast but I don't know how they can word it this way. It's worthless.
Sunday
A chance of rain and snow. Partly sunny, with a high near 41. Chance of precipitation is 40%.
WB 18Z EURO: impressive vortex heading east but I don't know how it is going to be cold enough by the time it gets here unless the track is perfect. Also noticed no 50-50 low this run which makes it even harder.
With marginal temps, we will need a near perfect track. Compare low positions for the snowy ICON and GFS compared to the rainy EURO and Can. WB 0Z Mon.
Completely agree. See my comments in their thread. Before 12Z most of them with all their technical skill were dismissing the threat. We will see what the experts think now.
Being 7 plus days out, we really need to see what the ensembles say at 12Z. We gotta keep up with the technical people in the expert thread since they really know what the hell is going on....
