Oh yeah the Euro nailed the H5 pattern but has been way off on temperatures and moisture. The gfs is handling short range better in my opinion. The GFS did a much better job at the rainfall this week and still underestimated rainfall totals in most of WNC. The temperatures have been atrocious at lead time and I mean some 20 to 30 degrees bad but it's H5 pattern has been stellar so go figure.
I like the look for mid week but as most know im an optimist and this looks like the best chance for snow since November really. As you noted. Honestly I don't even look at the gfs anymore for mid to longe range leads.
