I don't think you can just 'dismiss' the GFS because the Euro shows this --- or because it's an 18z run, etc.  This is a lot like the Feb 5 event and the GFS did quite well with that event versus our Miller A on Feb 13/14 that the Euro just dominated (as it tends to do w/ Southern Stream events). 

 

Lots of time to go and lots of good on our side.

 

BUT, that GFS NEVER looked good from the very onset of precip forward.

 

Onto the Ensembles.

No big storm, toss

Lol I know you're kidding. Just another solution on the table. The Euro looked awesome. Good blocking, the PV creating confluence so the storm cant cut and it tracks underneath us , high pressure keeping cold air in place and lots of moisture being thrown up over the cold air.

It's all noise this far out.

agreed. This is a very viable solution. Yes, a different one, but viable. The key thing to watch is the timing and orientation of the PV in SE canada.

18z gfs leaving the front stalled along the coast... might try and produce something along it. maybe , maybe not....

SATURDAY NIGHT AND BEYOND...MODELS HAVE PUSHED BACK THE TIMING ON THE

INITIAL SHORT WAVE TROUGH AND WEAK WARM FRONT, NOW ARRIVING IN OUR

AREA SATURDAY NIGHT, OR ABOUT 12 HOURS SLOWER THAN THE MODEL RUNS

YESTERDAY WERE SHOWING. WITH THIS SHORT WAVE TROUGH THERE DOES

APPEAR TO BE SUFFICIENT LIFT TO WARRANT A PERIOD OF PRECIPITATION

ACROSS THE REGION. THE BIG QUESTION THROUGH THIS PERIOD WILL BE HOW

FAR NORTH THE WARM FRONT WILL GET BEFORE IT STALLS, AND POSSIBLY

RETREATS BACK SOUTH AS A COLD FRONT. BEST CASE SCENARIO FOR SPRING

WEATHER WATCHERS IS THAT THE FRONT STALLS ACROSS NORTHERN NJ AND E

CENTRAL PA SUNDAY NIGHT AND REMAINS NEARLY STATIONARY THROUGH

TUESDAY WHEN THE LOW LIFTS NORTHEAST OUT OF THE NORTHERN GULF OF

MEXICO, PULLING THE FRONT BACK SOUTH. HOWEVER, THIS SOLUTION, WHICH

IS CLOSE TO THE OPERATIONAL GFS IS FAR FROM CERTAIN. WITH A SPLIT

FLOW PATTERN IN THE TRANSITION SEASON, EXPECT TO SEE SIGNIFICANT

MODEL AND ENSEMBLE DIFFERENCES, AND THAT IS CERTAINLY THE CASE WITH

THE 12Z RUNS. THERE IS ESPECIALLY LARGE DIFFERENCES AMONG ENSEMBLE

MEMBERS AND OPERATIONAL MODELS IN THE SURFACE PATTERN. GIVEN THE

UNCERTAINTY, HAVE REMAINED CLOSE TO THE PREVIOUS FORECAST.

I was on mobile. Cut me a freakin break.

It's cool man. Not trying to argue.  i want a good snowfall just like everyone else and appreciate what you do for us with PBP, especially the Euro w/ your pay access.

 

I was trying to put in my $.02 as the model came out, which folks didn't like because it was warm/rain, and we hear "Let Yanks do it".  If being on mobile hurts ya, others can help out. 

 

Onward.

No Problem. 18z GFS is bad for me since I leave work 5-5:30.
