NAM is wayyy slower with the Southern stream. Hour 48 its still down by Va capes... 18z GFS had it east of long beach island.... NAm is trying, just not getting there.

Any verdict on how the NAM has been doing in this time range recently. Not that we have had any big storms though to compare.

It can't be all that bad now....

All of the analogs on CIPS etc. are pretty bad. I don't like the comparisons to 1997 and 2005, even if the conditions will be similar in NE.

This one starts completely as a southern stream s/w and then we wait for the northern s/w to "catch" the fkr. We sit in a terrible area for confidence forecasting right now but the NWP consensus today was great.
