Pretty aggravating to have that kind of spread at this point.  Exact amounts aside, I'm buying the enhanced band on the NAM but it's more of a question of where it sets up...whether it's over us or not.

 

Yeah. Sort of amazing how the models still can't get into complete agreement within 24-48 hours.

 

12z Ukie looks to be in the same spot as it has been for awhile, with the slp at 12z Wed.

I'm not entirely sure we had full sampling with the 12z runs.  If you go back and look at where the s/w was at 12z, it was still hanging just off the coast and now it's diving into Baja.  There is a RAOB site there in far southern California so maybe enough data made it in.

GFS suffering from convective feedback issues. Toss.

Agreed, the GFS slp placement makes no sense at hour 36 and 42 given the 500 mb plot and even less so with the placement of the pv anomaly vs the slp placement. I think the 12z NAM has a better chance of verifying at this point.

Agreed, the GFS is completely lost at this point. Sad that we are literally 24 hours away from some locations getting snow in the plains and we are widening the gap even further.

RC do you have any thoughts on my post above and whether there was full sampling?

I would say it definitely did not get full sampling, the northern stream wave likely had partial sampling, but the heart of the southern wave (jet streak) was still off the BAJA coast at 12Z this morning.

Based on current w/v, as extremewx stated it's highly likely there wasn't full sampling yet for 12z, when I looked yesterday I thought by 12z but most likely for the 00z runs which looks to be the case. It appears this evening there will be sampling by the far southern CA site and the site on the Mexican mainland coast of the Gulf of California.
