I think it would probably be best to realize this come tomorrow's run / early Thursday. There are still a lot of uncertainty to track, timing, phasing etc. All in good time :).

Yeah true. I do get tired of hearing people complaining about details run per run though.

we should probably have a pinned thread devoted to a brief summarization of all the current model projections. It would probably be best if it was locked to avoid any ot tangents... just a page that is updated when guidance is. This would certainly help the casual reader and enable users with mobile devices to obtain the information much faster.

Given this would be going against my original thought/posting, I kinda agree and like this idea. Lock the thread, only update when necessary; occasionally letting a forecaster/met tag post in there.

i love this idea

This is the possible threat that might rival all the big ones; ECMWF shows a classic H5 aloft with a very amped up shortwave trough within the longwave trough....And then it forms a huge closed low, and its SPEED is the reason why it just might be so massive. Slower speed is very conductive for a historic event *Given the QPF*, which will perhaps increase. I end this statement with a question: Did you honestly expect New York City to get over 26 inches of snow from the February 2006 Blizzard even with the QPF amounts that spat out? Classic Intense bandings will make this storm and with a sfc low in sub 980s will have a great baroclinic leaf assoicated with rapid cyclogenesis. Another question: Did even the Blizzard of 1996 had 2.5 to 3" QPF? I certainly believe not since that was a weak Nina, and yet PHL got 30.7" of snow. Do NOT fret about QPF this early.

It should be inside 100 hours now, at least in terms of light snow developing. Maybe 112-116 before the heavy snow would commence

That would be nice. Anyone (preferably a Met or someone like earthlight) interested in making a "summary" thread? Something that people could post in that is a general update maybe once or twice a day that notes where model guidance is overall and some input in what you think? That would be cool.

Looks like JB's white Christmas might be a day late?

John and Tom are sleeping! We need their phone numbers on hand for a wake-up call!

What we need is for only one person to do the analysis and the rest of us just read.
