  1. It's funny to see this trend to Boston now and the dryslot/mixing continue to punch farther N and W down here. Instead of moving due E the track keeps adjusting to crawl NE along the coast then bomb New England. Should we be surprised down here in SE PA?
  2. NAM still loves the mixing and icing even far N and W. Colder but icier. Might be time to start putting more weight into these looks.
  3. Wow widespread 12"+ even along i95 in that disco. Surprised by that tbh.
  4. Ahh, I thought you meant you've never seen it modeled. I misread that then.
  5. Yep. The 3k is sending up smoke signals. Eta: 6z and 18z runs over last 36 hrs have been west with slp only to adjust E at 0z or 12z. Something to keep in mind as we see hp and cad stronger each run but the slp track adjusts.
  6. You must be young or have selective memory then.
  7. Really? Ova? Not debating far N and W areas jackpotting. Discussing implications for marginal mixing areas around i95. Want to caution you in using the Euro for short range wrt micro situational forecasting such as CAD and banding. Defer to higher resolution mesos as lead times shrink. Entering 3k territory now.
  8. As I watch 6z roll in, it should be noted the NAM has trended 2-3mb stronger with the HP in SE Canada over the past 5 model runs and continues to show better CAD and ll cold in the area. Mixing still an issue along i95 but trend should be watched for future changes irt mix line advancement.
  9. NAM has come quite a ways since 0z yesterday wrt ll cold and wind vectors.
  10. Agreed. Just good to see that trend stop and even reverse. Maybe windshield wiper effect or maybe going to continue. Up next....rgem.
  11. 12z NAM stopped the trend and came in colder....so thats refreshing for anyone who put stock in the NAM at range last day or so. Eta: upon farther inspection actually took a sizeable move to the rgem wrt track and intensity
  12. What concerns me is the sw energy continues to be sampled stronger which yields a more amped system. I think this trend is real irt the sw strength. We see this alot when energy comes onshore out West. Our saving grace/hope for i95 is going to be the 50/50, confluence, and hp ... whether those can hold and help counter the strengthening slp. RGEM says we can do it. EPS says nope im gonna dislodge the blocking and 50/50. Fun times.
  13. So the RGEM, GFS, and GEFS tick SE but the NAM, Euro and EPS are ticking NW. Talk about a split. My money is 55/45 in favor of the latter group with the end result being near the middle with a lean to the Euro.
  14. 6z Euro followed the NAM...mixing into the LV. So like the op said, rgem is likely out to lunch. Going to be intense banding somewhere N and W tho.
  15. Rgem is probably closer wrt the banding features than most globals. Just a matter of pinpointing where.
  16. GEFS continues to tick SE. Not sure how reliable the ens are at a 60 hr range.
  17. On one hand the 6z NAM comes in and wants to bullseye Western PA.....then the RGEM comes out moments later and I damn near pass out seeing 2-3' across SE PA. Epic model war. One of these mesos is about to fail miserably. Truth probably lies in between?
  18. Not sure I trust the GFS for qpf depiction. Always seems tight with gradients and less expansive than say the Euro or the mesos in that regard. Tends to run drier overall as well.
  19. GFS is another dumping for us. No red flags, steady as she goes. Eta: Light snow thru Thursday evening wow. 24 hrs+
  20. Better track for DC and BWI this run. I wouldn't put much stock into banding or lack thereof on the gfs global. Wait for mesos to get in range. Great trend for my Southern friends imo.
  21. My wife said that to me once.....and now 2 kids later.
