this storm is dying a really slow death

I wouldn't say that yet, ggem, ec, uk, sref still look really really good.  GFS and NAM have decided to veer off in a different direction at game time.  We don't have any evidence to support that they are correct yet.  NAM actually halted the south trend with the second wave this run, it just was also way dryer so it looks worse.

4k NAM continues to trend drier.  Through 27 hours, it has most of the area around the cities below 1" total qpf (including sleet and rain).

It may be drier, but the 12Z run was huge jump up also. These runs are not all that bad imo.

Anyone had an idea why two models are trending drier? Is it the high pressure? Weaker low? Faster low? Is there any indication on the surface maps that would indicate such a change?

less moisture

 

eta: 500 mb vort looks very similar to 12Z with just a slightly stronger positive tilt

12z might have been a jump up in some spots, but overall it was drier than 06z.  Which was drier than 00z, which was drier than 18z yesterday.  If you go to the tropicaltidbits site, you can see the trend pretty clearly.
