Unlike 18z, the storm stalls and drifts much closer to the coast instead of an ENE escape. CCB also backs in and gives us the goods later Saturday night-early Sunday morning.

As I said in the Pittsburgh forum, check out the Canadian, NAM and now the GFS. After the low forms it hugs and moves up the coast. Trend?

looks like ccb around york/adams...no.

 

i'm liking this gang.

 

Yeah, the 500 hPa low is way more wrapped up and farther west than 18z; it's a real nice look synoptically for mesoscale banding in central PA. Looks like we get into an extended period of 700 hPa frontogenetic forcing; areas to south and east see more forcing at the lower levels.

 

Grrr...sucking us up near KUNV back in.

Bob Chill in MA:

 

 

Trash the gfs over the euro all you want. It has barely wavered for 12+ runs in general besides wobbles. If it busts to "the king" then let the trashing continue for years. But you can't deny the consistency. I've never seem the gfs do this Pre upgrade

Did the low close off at about 60?

Also that looks to be a pretty good stall.

There's a closed 546 dam contour at 60 hrs, however, the surface low is still out of phase with the 500 hPa low. The system doesn't begin to occlude until around hour 96 when the surface low is within a couple of closed contours at 500 hPa. Even at that time, you can see the surface low becomes elongated to the northeast as some secondary development occurs south of the New England coast.

Thank you Heavy!

Looks like models are heading north.
