Again that means nothing. Surface features are governed by mid and upper level features. If those change, so does HP. What it good, is that the antecedent airmass is about as good as it gets.

It means a lot actually. You ain't jamming a low up the HRV with a beast mode high there. Doesn't work that way

Hot damn the Kuchera crack from PivotalWeather: 1' DC and BOS, 2' PHL-NYC-ORH-BDL-PWM and back to ALB, 3' along much of this line, 56" for MWN.

Only SEMA weenies would be complaining, really. 

Shift that about 20 miles east, please.

That foolish algorithm was like crack to weenies this year. It's seems like every year, weenies grasp on to the latest and sexiest weenie maps.

I rather just look at the total qpf and use climo for the different types of storms, Always has worked and you can get real close to the results.

14-24" verifies my winter outlook imby....I will probably be too low along the coast....

Right. Or, what you could do if your met savvy enough, is the go 10:1 and adjust on account for mid level features, DGZ etc.  I normally use QPF, mid level features, and soundings to determine how much snow. Oochie Coochie looks at temps in the column, but does not look at lift or saturation. At least as far as I know.

If I pull off 60"....I'll smoke a cigarette come April and call it a season. My guess is we may not be done after next week though. Long range looks like there is some potential.

My outlook was really good, except for the fact that I should have switched January and February....thought January would be very good, February suck.

I pegged March for good snow and NAO assist.

Exactly, 10:1 is a good starting point, Being on the coastal plain in alot of the mash potato/cement type storms, I find more times then not in the 7-10:1 range and the ones on the colder side with great mid level tracks in the 12-15:1 range.

Not sure if it was mentioned but the gefs h5 mean looks practically dead on similar comparing 18z to 12z, pretty remarkable to see imo. Its not until you slide back to 6z where youcan see how the trough is less sharp and a more proggy. I think this is a good sign the holes have been dug up and the goalposts are being taken off the truck. I dont want to jinx it so I wont say it. A huggies left and just SE of BE right.
