    I don't think it would be a brush. The phasing could just be delayed if the southern wave moves east faster. And I do think models are too slow with the southern stream. Progressive flow pattern has been the game last several years. So it's not over just yet Gfs def speeding up southern wave last few runs as well

    I think the only way the outcome changes is if models are incorrect in holding back the energy around day 3 when the storm is in Arkansas. If the storm ends up being more progressive then it'll end up further east. The west pull into central PA is the result of a complete phase with northern stream. If this phase is delayed due to the southern vortex moving east faster then the track will most likely be offshore or a coastal hugger. Note Euro tends to be hold back things too much so its amped up track wasn't surprising. The GEFS were def interesting.

    That's def not true. Our last snow event did not keep trending west otherwise we would have had a foot. The snow event that slammed Atlantic City trended west initially but stopped as we got within 3 days.

    Those off hour runs tend to be a lot wonkier. 18z GFS is usually more progressive so I'd like to see a continuation at 0z to see if there's any hope. Good to see the GEFS trend east though.

    I wonder if models are incorrect on hanging back the shortwave around day 3. Because that would make a big difference down the line.
  6. SnoSki14
    It could easily keep trending westward. Might have to worry about coastal flooding/strong winds over snow. Pretty strong low on Euro

    The outcome seems simple actually. Friday's system could've acted like a 50/50 had we had some sort of block up north. It could've created enough confluence to have the following system shift east. At this point I'm hoping Monday's storm shifts further west and introduces a wave breaking event that will plunge the NAO and give us a much better setup next week.
  8. SnoSki14
    The pattern after Monday's storm looks a lot better to me. Stout Alaskan ridging with some Atlantic blocking. It's possible Monday serves as a wave breaking event.

    The high rapidly escaping east is not a CAD scenario given intensifying phased low moving in. Maybe it could start as snow but it should quickly turn to rain. This storm desperately needs a -NAO block. That would slow down the ocean low, turn it into a 50/50 and press the confluence for Monday's system. Although it's still a few days out I think the writing is on the wall for this.

    You know it's bad when folks are using the 84hr Nam for positivity about the storm.
  11. SnoSki14
    Long range still looks good. So what if this storm cuts there are plenty of future chances.
  12. SnoSki14
    Pattern gets better later next week actually so I def think we'll score eventually.
  13. SnoSki14
    Agreed. Either give me a monster KU or be warm/snowless. I've been a lot more interested in severe weather last few years bc I think that's what the trend will be. I'm kinda hoping Monday turns into a major southeast screamer.
  14. SnoSki14
    I don't think it would make a difference if it wasn't there. In fact the ocean storm provides some confluence for Monday. The thing is the more favorable snowy pattern doesn't really happen till the 20th on the ensembles.
  15. SnoSki14
    We do still have 4 days to go. It is possible the confluence trends stronger again and the track shifts east again. We've seen substantial short term changes already. But if the 12z suite holds or keeps trending west then it's probably not gonna be a coastal.
  16. SnoSki14
    I thought it could work out though the high to the northeast of the storm moving out was a red flag. Now I'm concerned we might be dealing with a powerful south'easter.
  17. SnoSki14
    The GFS track would create serious coastal flooding and strong winds. Timing around Full Moon. If it is gonna cut then I hope it keeps trending west. The storm could be a wave breaking event that flips the NAO/AO negative and makes future systems more favorable for us.
  18. SnoSki14
    Unfortunately there isn't any confluence to stop this from trending west. Given current trends I think it very well might be correct.
  19. SnoSki14
    12F right now by far the coldest of the season. Good thing there's no strong wind to match.
  20. SnoSki14
    Two runs ago it whiffed and you think it's going to Syracuse? The OP run is further west than the westernmost ensemble track. Does that mean it can't eventually be an inland runner, no, but it's way too early to jump the gun.
  21. SnoSki14
    Hopefully it delivers. So far December has been a massive disappointment and I have one 5" snow event that pretty much melted already. So there's plenty of work to be done.
  22. SnoSki14
    For shits & giggles Icon is OTS so don't worry about OP runs.
  23. SnoSki14
    If it does track inland that means it fully phased and would likely be extremely strong (960s) aka major coastal flooding/winds. Really bad timing with full moon on Monday However given our pattern thus far a big inland cutters seems unlikely. Atlantic City has a top 5 snowy Jan already. The coastal low is the more favored track.
  24. SnoSki14
    That EPS looks very nice.
  25. SnoSki14
    Which is why you use the ensembles. The OP runs will be all over the place. I'm pretty confident we'll get nice storm out of this. Looks like a classic to me.
