Gotta say, I love the change in attitude in these threads lately. A month ago and this thread would be a disaster...seems like everybody is pretty "meh" rather than upset.

Disagree - the amount of fear in here is silly right now. Noyes lovefest turned into American gasps. They've been doing this all week. We expected what, big hits from them? Euro will be fine. It has been how consistent this week? It may not end up like last night, but widespread 6-12, some 12+. All will be well.

The Canadian and euro should be interesting. It's still a good storm for BOS points south, but the concern is there. That ULL I think needs to gain a little more latitude.

The RGEM didn't really change at all. There were trends at 18z...NOGAPs etc with the sheared deal...what we have now is a dry slot wrappings towards us versus the euro solutions of old. You can see on the UK though...there's hints of a save OR I should say hints of maybe where it failed. See the 2nd spiral of higher RH? My only hope is maybe we've got more energy offshore Tampa coming up that can kind of bump all that NW later. It's plausible as it IS that moisture/energy that just crapped out in this run.

You're right...we'll know for sure in 2 hours. But I think we all know what the EURO is going to do. Everything is converging on a moderate event because it's too progressive and it seems like most of our precip is reliant on the CCB, as opposed to the the CCB AND the stuff that whiffs initially to our east.

I figured the 0z would deliver one way or the other. It always seems to be the case whether it's the GOM or off the SE Coast...once the convection has fired we see some stability. Just in advance, we have some problems.

That said the RGEM didn't move much at all and is quite a bit different than the american/uk. What it isn't though is the 0z euro from last night.

"the convective feedback" is showing up on the GFS too...too much lift is going shunted east. Messenger ftw.

Well we'll see how it goes. I noticed that as well. It also didn't seem to want to really kick back the height lines over New England as well. This storm is a tricky one and it's probably got a few tricks up its sleeve here and there. I do like the placement of the 700 low on the GFS. It's not all that bad for areas near and east of ORH. I would think the Canadian and Euro tick se, but who knows what this will do tomorrow. I'd probably hold onto my call until the rest of the suite comes in.

The funny thing is looking at the GFS it actually looks like real feedback...it's displaced the low in one run which is a big red flag to me, combined with the missing RAOB.

I'm sold on this being a split system with a lot or/most of what's off the coast now deflecting underneath us...but I'm not sold on the 2nd part of the solution from the models. I think there well could be issues with part two...big coincidence that the feature that plays a big role in delivering the goods here happened to be right next to the crashed baloon.

the crashed balloon would have probably been discarded anyway...balloons in thunderstorms are not really representative of the area.

03z Ruc even looks better than the 02z Ruc! Is this a red flag on what is going on with the other models?

The RUC tends to be too far west late in its range, especially this season on most events so you probably want to see it pretty far west to increase the talk of tossing the NAM/UKMET solutions.

Ok, speaking of crashing...this is one area you guys blow me away on....I appreciate that insight.

The change in speed in the first 12-18 of the GFS is very, very odd to me. The GFS usually barely budges, so either it had a collosal error up until now, or somethings up.

I expect 8-16" until the EURO suggests otherwise.

I would really love to wait until the Euro comes out before making any changes to my previous call but due to my back I really can't stay up longer so I'm just going to make adjustments with what we've seen so far.

I think though my biggest adjustments will be back this way, not going to change much over NE MA

I don't know what to think. Sattelite shows the whole deal charging north. In the morning it maybe different. I'll say this, if NAM wins this battle, it will be an epic win for it and Barry Burbank. Barry's forecast right now by consensus looks good. Personally, I'm leery of this event. We can talk how upper air looks better till the cows come home. We live at the surface and the depiction stinks if correct.

Kudos to you for picking out the dual lows early on...let's see what happens

Radar? Opinion?
