Well, not to have it get out of hand......but you sorta did.

Sorry you take model output discussion so personally that you feel the need to flame anyone that wants an honest, legitimate discussion about a model that shows a change that may not benefit you.

Bob said he wasn't concerned unless there was a twist. There seemed to be a twist, and I was hoping for some decent discussion about it. Instead, I was told to GTFO, even though I have legitimate reason for wanting to discuss the potential cause of and potential implications of the change in guidance.

Sure, the SREF may be unreliable. But there is another variable: new data from soundings. I'm certainly not a met, but from a scientific standpoint, when there are two variables, you can't just throw one out because "oh, well that's always this way."

There is no new data that went into the 21z sref since they simply use a combo of gfs and rap ics, along with a myriad of initial, boundary, and model perturbations. No have no idea what you mean regarding this magical new sounding data. Sorry.

Thank you. There was a bulletin that went out saying special sounding was supposed to start at 18z, thought this data might be rolled into the 21z SREF. Wasn't sure if the change was due to unreliable model or new ingested data.

No, those would be assimilated into the 18Z cycle analyses. The models run late enough to receive and use such data.
