Just wanted to say I think the vast, vast majority of posters here have nothing but the highest respect for you, Wes. I also think there is also a small army of folks such as myself who rarely post because we feel we don't have the in-depth knowledge to add to the discussion, but we search for your posts because we learn every time you weigh in. For us, you are invaluable. I know that the negative comments may sting, but please don't let them drive you away from sharing your knowledge and experience. Thanks!

+ 1,000,0000. Wes i learned more about the weather from you than any other person. Please don't let one blowhard stop you from posting here. You are invaluable.

I kind of wanted to go 2-4/3-4 for MBY, but want to remain cautious as a lot can still go wrong with getting enough moisture in here in round 1. I'm worried about models being too far north and/or radar too choppy. Less concerned about flipping too early. early to Mid afternoon seems reasonable.

As has been said a bunch already but it's a bit reassuring that we start off so cold. I hate events like the last one where even when it did pulse a little and start to accumulate the soaked ground and above freezing temps zapped it within an hour after it lightened up.

Not the case tomorrow. Light rates will actually accumulate. Weird huh? Lol

NAM precip not too much reason to get wild at this pt. HRRR/RAP don't agree so far though they do give us the finger around midnight so we'll see on that part I suppose.

Funny, my wife gave me the finger when I suggested some post Valentines dinner activities at around midnight.

I'm pretty much hugging the euro (shocker).  Though to the extent the other models are wet, it helps buttress the Euro solution.  I'd be less bullish if the Euro was alone, but juicing up 2 runs in a row makes me feel pretty good.  Still tough to go 4" when so much can go wrong.

May have to rename him Bob Thrill.

Lmfao. That's funny.

Mods: sorry this is not in banter but I'm traveling and I can't figure out how to take comments from here and move them to banter. At home i just hit multi quote and open the banter thread, but on mobile it doesn't allow me to. Anyone know how to do it on mobile. I also do not use Tapatalk.

Hard not to hug it. For the last day or so it has been fairly consistent and the other models have moved towards it. Well maybe not the NAM so much. The only issue I have seen is initially it was scouring out the cold too quickly.

If it pleases you. Most were in full melodramatic negativity 2+ days ago and instead we do have something to follow

Rather see snow. Keep the rain for the spring. I always thought the setup argued for something to track, probably some front end. And as far as the melodrama, am used to it with having followed this board for 20 years or so. After all some people thrive on negativity.

I don't think you ever answered when you were asked who said it wasn't going to snow three days ago? At least you eventually moved to the right sfc track with the main system. Try to re-write history as much as you want.. the proof is here that you just make stuff up.

not sure if anyone posted earlier about the fire wx nest being placed over our area, so apologies if this has been discussed, but the character of the simulated reflectivity is quite interesting.   The precip takes on a "showery" character by early afternoon - earlier than I was expecting to see.

Interesting.  An indication that it's pushing the (relative) dry slot in a bit sooner?
