go read Phil882's explanation as to why the SREF's cannot be trusted, in NYC forum

I read that and found it interesting. I've only ever used the sref for trends and never for a verbatim forecast. They are a very useful tool if used properly such as to see which way a slp may be trending based on model spread errors, general precip trends ie where might the heaviest precip axis be located, etc. They tend to often times be a foreshadowing of what the next model suite may bring, ie, 21z sref might yield some clues as to what the 0z NAM et al trends will be. I say the NAM in particular because the sref are run off of that model if my memory serves me correctly.
