Thursday Wintry Threat II

That is true. I mean...I'm probably going to wake up at 4am on Thursday to see what is in all likely hood going to be 1 or 2" of snow...but the changeover should be impressive.

I don't think I'd forecast more than 3" at this point either, but that doesn't mean that a possible 3-6" is not in the back of their heads for this area. There's certainly some bust potential with the end of this system.

It could also trend more NW and give very little. Still up in the air which stinks from a forecasting perspective but at least it adds an element of excitement.

Yup should be fun to track. Just wish I didn't have all the stuff I have on Thursday...lol.

It may go southeast ..... The last few years I have had very little luck with coastal storms that are first modeled to be a fringe here. Numerous times they have seemed to trend west only to end up being a fringe after all. This time there is a +NAO so maybe it's different. We'll see.

The stronger the lead wave is the better for us but I am not seeing the push I need. Rain to weenie flakes for me.

SREFs are a bit warmer though. Might mean a few amped up members.

I was comparing 850 temps at 09z Thu and the 21z run looked cooler than 15z.

0C line was nearly over ORH on the new run while it was back in W MA on the 15z run...but again, not sure how much of this has to do with timing. We'll know when the snow probs come out.

As expected we are in for a delightful evening, the furthest se srefs have gone a bit further se and cooled...........this is going to be great!

LOL its the SREFS...they've been behind the 8 ball since the beginning lol, but as I've been saying along with some others, its definitely going to atleast tick SE

NAM looks like the vortmax is a little north of the 18z run at hr 24. Tough to tell what it means, but it might be a little closer this run.

Yes and that is not good. We need the vortmax to make sure it tracks S of us...it probably still will on this run, but you worry about it continuing to tick north.

It actually looks like the NAM is just a bit faster than 18z...but not much different in actual placement....we'll see in a few more frames...but it looks like maybe an hour or two faster. I'm looking at the changeover down in MD and it looks faster on the 00z run.
