It would be best for some on here's mental health if they just step away from the LR thread for the next 8 days. I imagine its going to get ugly (or -ier) in there, fast.
I thought WxUSAF hit on this earlier today in the model thread....weak west coast ridging so I think it means there's a lot of s/w flying all over. I'm a dummy with weather so who knows if this is right but perhaps that changes when we get better WC ridging later this month.
Yeah I posted in the LR thread (makes more sense for this in here) that 500 closed off vs prior GFS runs. I thought based on the 48H panel, we'd see some flurries get to DC. Not out of the game for a car topper!
