Pretty interesting mix of +'s and -'s with this one for our area.

I like the trends with the jet at 200-300mb, nice looking streak up towards the NE.

I like the possibility for some impressive cyclogenesis in the southern plains along the baroclinic zone.

I really like the wide open gulf, ample moisture and strong flow should crank up great WAA snows ahead of the low for someone.

The negatives have been well hashed out. We're in the game, not longshots and not favored.

about a 24 degree temp gradient from northern KS to the red river, pretty impressive. and the models are already hinting at a decent amount of WAA snow north of the boundary.

GFS is progging 850 mb winds of 60-70 kts into the Ohio Valley, so yeah, moisture won't be an issue.

we need more explosive storm development to get those winds down south to start backing more out of the southeast.

For the first time I can remember, at least regarding this storm, the GFS ensembles are now south of the OP GFS.

I noticed that. Remember the EURO ensembles were further north than the operational run a couple of days ago, and then the operational shifted north later. Could be a sign of what the GFS will do....
