Right, assuming it actually doesn't snow 3-6 on Friday....but saying it looked good a couple days ago isn't invalid or valid based on what happens on Friday. That's based on what models looked like a couple days ago and has a level of subjectivity to it. Two different arguments...and yes, it's really pointless to argue much about it. It's classic Kevin though.

It looked "better", absolutely.....but the idea that it wasn't going to materialize looks good, as evidenced by the both the current trends and the fact that this always looked minor at best.

Semantics, I guess.

There were some positives...PNA ridge was a bit better this run and the lakes s/w is digging more. Southern stream is still pretty crappy...so the sensible wx difference wasn't much.

Made me think if this is the typical GFS dampening out the the southern stream like we've seen historically.

The point is.. Sunday always was the long shot. Fri looked good yesterday which was 4 days out. Sunday looks bad and it's 5 days out. Whether Fri was 1-3 or 3-6 .. it always had the better chance since we knew both weren't happening. So instead it appears we lose both unless you are James

I'm willing to bet that sne experiences a greater impact from the second wave.

Hopefully that is the case...and hopefully it is too progressive. 00z runs tonight will be pretty big. We can't afford any regressions...or its likely game over.

12z runs I say are the latest, after them if no more changes occur I will give up or say that a few inches is all we get here on the Cape.

I could envision something where euro crushes, then rug gets pulled east kast minute...or just a hiccup run.

I'm not excited but intrigued.  Friday never really had a mechanism other than a broad swath of modeled qpf.  I wouldn't be surprised if Sunday trends bigger and Friday disappears.

Expand  

Why couldn't we get a weak version of Friday snow and then a monster low on the weekend?

I could envision that the EURO does a trend setting run where it dives the arctic low into the trough and phases the two systems for a monster storm south of LI where Cape Cod and Islands are rain and interior snowfall.

Expand  

I cannot envision that scenario so close to the event.

Agree on a more widespread event.  For SE areas I'm waiting till 00Z Thursday before making any judgement.  Wasn't bad verbatim from the 12z Euro and ensembles.

I didn't say it would be the right scenario

The Euro isn't going to have a "Burp run" like 400 miles west of the current prog this close to the event. If it shows something like that, then it will probably be pretty close to correct...but it is extremely doubtful it happens. Just because there have been model errors in the past doesn't mean it's going to happen this time. It is rare to get errors more than a couple hundred miles once inside of 4 days.

Thing is we don't need a correction to the west by that amount, maybe NYC does to get more than 12", but from ORH southeastward needs about 75 miles further west than we might be onto a 12-18" event for Cape and Islands.
