Seems fitting if we miss to South on the first one then miss late on the Miller B development with the second. I'll weenie tag myself and see my own way out now, ty
I'm not sure it's the fronto forcing that lifted north or if it is the effects from this new coastal development. Shame it can't stall out under the block or crawl at least
18z gfs delivers the goods.
Seeing a different evolution to the system now with a quasi phase and coastal redevelopment. Interesting changes in regards to the confluence allowing some room for the system to breathe and not shear.
Interesting to see this band of snow squalls verify much farther N than progged. A few folks mentioned this system will set the path for the 1/6 system to travel. I wonder if the confluence has been overmodeled and we shouldn't be surprised to see the Monday system jump N?
And this is precisely why nobody should claim victory or failure too prematurely. This is a rather delicate setup and it will not take much at all to turn this into a pleasant surprise for some.
I just deferred to my wife and she confirmed adamantly that she too would be thrilled getting at least 3 inches. I really hope she was talking weather...pretty sure
Also have to wait for the actual system to develop near Oklahoma tomorrow afternoon. Usually a crapshoot until the main player is actually on the map. We've seen some significant swings historically in these situations. Jan 96 was the biggest where 48bhrs before the system finally came together then guidance bumped the heaviest banding N 100 miles. It happens.
Eta: I am not comparing this system to Jan 96 just using that banding shift as an example
We all still get accumulating snow. And that's the odd part about popping into some other subforums South of us...almost everyone will see accumulating snow but people are in some sort of panic. Guess ppl are banking on the heaviest banding. That's always the bonus jackpot. But just adding onto seasonal totals is a win in my book. Take what you can get and never be disappointed with accumulating snow.
