Not funny..lol. I'm not on the desk for terminals, but this is not good. People are fooked if the GFS happens.

 

Verbatim how bad is the GFS Scott/Phil etc?  What are we looking at for winds?  Trying to make the decision on a generator right now.  I can't do 3 days without power again.

I know but RGEM/NAM/UKMET want nothing to do with this GFS type solution.  Some camp is busting terribly.

 

Would we consider one model a "camp" right now though? It's more like consensus vs. outlier until the Euro weighs in.

The snow looked like it would not be nearly as wet. maybe gusts to 50 or so? I mean if the other models are right, it's easy street.

Which is probably logical until it gets any other model's support.

 

Again, outlier in guidance. Ride the consensus unless there's something close to a realistic split in guidance.

The Euro made a pretty huge leap west last night and isn't really anything like the GGEM/UKMET solutions, JMHO.

 

Also don't forget, 3 days ago both the RGEM and GGEM were updated, which gives me pause.

Again.llllast nights euro was similar.

 

Exactly.  Take a look on Wunder.  The Euro/GFS at 0z were dead ringers/as close as they are going to get by 36 hours (24 hours now) at 500 and at the surface.  What happened is the 12z GFS took it a step further and organized the "mess" that the other models had into a closed 500mb contour etc.   It's basically just a continuation of what they were doing last night.

 

If the Euro holds serve, toss everything else.  The UKMET IMO is horrible more than half the time, and the GGEM/RGEM were both updated on 2/13.  That could be part of their "issue" who knows.

 

But by default if you want to call the GFS garbage you're calling the Euro garbage too because they're very similar.
