looks like convective feedback issues is causing the problems with wave handlement. You can see this by the models putting the low around the convection to its southeast causing distortions. Thus everything needs to be tighter and further northwest to match the flow.

GFS seems to struggle with that quite a bit in these situations

Good points. The fly in the ointment is that system moving across the south and Mid Atlantic. Then ofcourse it still has not been fully sampled yet. Thus we need to get that system in the south/mid Atlantic outta here ( the weaker/quicker the better ) and sampling done with this one.

regarding the images....tweet from maue...

 

Yep.. Most don't allow hot linking because it can drive up their server costs. Even though the image may show here because it comes from them directly it is their server getting the hit. On websites like this ( bigger audience ) it can add up quick. Doesn't mean you cannot save it and then upload it here as you would a pic.

Whatever the case is... Their maps load faster than anyone else's - usually. 

 

Anyway, it looks like suppressed and along I-70 is the way to go with this one.

 

Not SV. I am certain of that. I do think they are about the same now. Why SV is now 20 bucks vs 30. :P

FWIW, many more of the SREF members are wet on the 15z run (.75-1"+ qpf in the heavy snow band) but the mean is held in check due to a couple of exceptionally dry members.  Still a bit outside of the comfortable range to say that it will be right but at least some reason for optimism.

Local met still putting the best totals north of here.  Thinks LAF will have dryslot issues.

 

Again, more good news for us. :guitar:

Honestly I don't think the dryslot concern is totally unfounded, especially if there's a trend to the northwest.  Not something to panic about yet but something to keep in mind.
