I would think a 70/30 blend of the ECMWF and GFS is appropriate currently. Yes that is the modeled bias. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

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.

USCAPEWEATHERAF Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 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.

ORH_wxman Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 1 minute ago, USCAPEWEATHERAF said: 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.

40/70 Benchmark Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I think the ceiling right now is a solid warning event from ORH east...maybe a biggie in se MA/CC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USCAPEWEATHERAF Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Yes Ray, I think the worst case scenario in terms of most snow, warning event from ORH southeastward and advisory event to Springfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
