The storm is slamming into a strong high to our NE so an inland secondary low is probably likely.
That will really enhance the pressure gradient leading to a period of strong to severe wind gusts.
Just not sure exactly where it'll form
Interestingly enough the CMC has some of the flash freeze elements the GFS has. It goes from upper 50s to upper 20s over a 6hr period.
Flash freezes are very rare but so is this system. If you just like interesting weather then Friday could be fun.
I highly doubt we'll see that. Winds rarely get as strong as forecast. Usually models tone it down as we get closer. 40-50mph is more probable
Some places could get near 60 though if the warm sector really over performs
CONUS wide too so at least everyone's getting screwed.
Maybe it's a good thing given recession/inflation. Low heating costs.
If models are correct then give me a prolonged spring.
