GFS at 102 pops a low off of Hatteras or just south of there

 

The initial surface low from the lead vorticity forms off OBX way before that. It's the secondary surface low, forming in response to the impressive shortwave coming down the back end of the trough, that's going to make things interesting. This is an inverted trof scenario most likely, but if the GFS is right there is a chance that the flow could slow down enough to allow for a coastal low to make it far enough westward to impact us.

Going to come up just a tad short this run. Major improvements at H5 if you wanted something more than a hit or miss inverted trough.

 

The entire thing happens too far east. Yes, you can get a coastal low up the coast with this setup, but you and I both know where you need the main s/w to drop south to get the main development near the baroclinic zone off the coast. The tilt of the trough is not ideal and the initial surface low drags things too far east despite the impressive energy aloft

 H5 looks better on this run compared to the 6z run. Imagine if this turns into a Miller A ( possibility ).
