time after time the gefs mean and most of the members are east of the op run...and end up losing in the end 80% of the time. defeats the purpose of ensembling, lol.

Yeah... only worthwhile watching the ensembles trend from one run to the next. Comparing to the op 9 times out of 10 screws you but always provides great fodder for Kevin and his type.

I almost never look at the GEFS seriously unless its for a general pattern 7+ days out...only reason to inside that time frame is to see if they are WEST of the OP run on a system that is on/near the coast. If they are west, then something might be up.

ECMWF ensembles tend to do much better, but they have a slight SE bias too, but nothing like the GEFS that I've noticed.

Yeah that's a big red flag too. Seeing them further west in a setup like this or seeing big trends from one run to another are worth paying attention to. Other than that not worth a whole lot lol.

It looks like the GEFS is a little west of 12z to me too.. but it is definitely well east of 18z. Nevermind.. it's also east of 12z. It was hard to tell because it's a full 12 hours slower than 12z I finally realized.

Yeah that threw me too. The actual track did come east by like 100 miles.

I can't wait for our first real storm so I can not do things like analyze a 144 hour GEFS run :axe:

It's timing issues. It is 12 hours slower, but appears near, or just east of 12z. However, it is a little warmer, so that tells me we have some torch members in there. Overall this looks more amplified to me as compared to 12z.

Yeah def some torches in there. But there have got to be a fair number offshore or at least hugging the coast. Not sure it makes a huge difference but at least it's not trending back over Buffalo.

I think it's more likely than not but stranger things have happened!

Today's modeling certainly shows that. One thing I have definitely learned over the years is when modeling starts trending consistently west for multiple runs, look out, rarely do they reverse, but early yet, if it's still west by 0Z Thurs it's over.

Well like we were saying earlier, this still could have a shot for the interior. However, despite the interior location, it sux to see all that energy going nuts in the Midwest. That's never a good sign for us, unless it doesn't phase, and remains weak. Even so, the energy across the lower OH valley would probably cause a coastal hugger even with no phase...it's that strong.

This was also another reason I wanted to see the clipper blow up with a secondary...becoming a little nuke in Canadian Maritimes...to steal any strength left in that rotting primary that hangs up over Ontario...which would let more high pressure build in via confluence forced by the intensifying 1st system.

Hoping today was lost day for that one and models bring it back tomorrow as we have seen a lot lately.
