Hearing the Euro ensemble mean takes the low off the NC coast, what you got Bob.

Looks just like the op to me. Out to 120 on the precip panels. Nice hit from what I can tell so far. 

 

ETA: They look really good. About .50 liquid on the means. Plenty cold upstairs. Same timing as the op. Control sticks us pretty good with 6"+ region wide (okv/jyo jackpot)

Thanks for the info Bob. I expect the GFS to come around by 0Z tonight or latest 12Z tomorrow.

I'm not sure it matters at this point. Euro is locking in like a laser and the ggem is very similar. That's been a money combo with storms coming from the south all year. I think we're in really good shape at 4-5 day lead.

Its good to see the EURO locking on and not budging much if at all... hopefully that 12z GGEM run will repeat itself tonight

If member output is another step tighter than last night then I think some sort of accum snow is becoming likely. 

 

GFS will probably stripe us on the .25 fringe in an hour or so. If it pummels us them I'm going to start drinking

Highzenberg, what do you think of the 500 @84 hours...on NAM?

 

Its 84 hours out on one of the worst models, but overall it actually took a step towards the globals with its handling of the vort that enters from Canada, There is a lot of energy on the backside of the trough so I imagine some of the energy would split off, but it looks like plenty would make it out for a nice storm for the area....It doesn't matter though.

 

Would be nice if 18z GFS came around a bit though.

Luckily we have 16 more gfs runs or so before it matters whether it catches on or not. I like the gfs a lot. But after what happened with the 2/12 storm it's pretty easy to not fret when all other reliable guidance says the same thing.

One thing is for sure, I hope this is a monster QPF bomb and not some wimpy .40 over 12 hours thing.

Agreed.

But with temps falling all night long and even during the day Monday (according to the Euro), some lighter rates might be good enough for this time of year. The beginning might be a bit dicey but by the wee hours of the morning we are looking at 20's and no sun angle.

it will have to come down hard to stick on the streets regardless, but the schools will be closed even with a few flakes sticking....think of the children!!!
