people are expecting too much from a model at 6-7 days out.  maybe some of you guys should write the formulas that go into it.  the setup is there.  expecting details this far out is irrational.

Im not expecting to figure out details but Im at least expecting it to stick to an overall large storm idea...not do something wacky like the GFS did or almost essentially lose the storm like the GGEM just did but hey I guess thats too much to ask too

to be fair, GGEM didn't really lose it, it just keeps it off shore

what's 75-100 miles over 5 days? not bad really

The gfs shift at h5 early in the run was huge. You could see big changes down the line setting at like 84 hours. That is a short lead swing. The vort ejected a piece into the mw and was too weak to dig. The run should be put on the shelf for now. It either picked up on something important or made a random left turn that will correct next run. I expect the Euro hold serve with a deep dig and strong vort. And present new fears with the 50/50 placement

we are highly dependent on the -NAO and 50-50 because the default mechanism is to drive a storm to our west...and if that doesn't work go as far as you can go and then pop a secondary...and if that doesn't work try to go up our gut....a low in this pattern is only going to go to our south if it has no other choice...as a last resort...there is serviceable surface high...there is no real split flow....and there are still a lot of moving parts...and there are a lot of analogs that aren't very impressive, and a new one showing up a couple times, that if you saw the GFS run, is hardly surprising...2-24-10...I'm expecting a very imperfect flawed event for me...lucky for you, you live pretty far wnw...

All that said, this better be a good run.  I'm running on fumes.
