Overnight ens took jumps back N with the weekend system. GFS op and ICON are just to our South with heavy snow now. CMC is trying to follow along. Euro op (posted below) is a nice signal again but just to our South. And I am posting 2 of the EPS members that show the potential this may have here tho there are several more big hits mixed in. I think with the SE Ridge trying to show this does tick N.....hopefully not too far N. We have the wiggle room tho. Crazier is there is a signal for another coastal storm early next week.

Posted are (top to bottom) Euro op and 2 EPS members:348d34b3a6d75026cdf12f1d31531ead.jpgf89eeb1b9b990c31e3f473c344c58423.jpg6e7949982e14236387675d1b7e25afdf.jpg

It is kinda funny digging deeper into guidance this morning seeing the weekend system evolve from a Miller B to a Miller A look and now to a simple wave along a boundary to our South. Most might shrug their shoulders and say meh, I knew we wouldnt score with this threat BUT if anything, I feel the chances have actually increased quite significantly with this look. Very similar look to the last system, wave along a boundary, caa to the N, fairly intense lifting and seasonal warfare overunning. It wont take much to get a significant batch of precip to overun the cold which guidance is showing, just to our South. Couple this with the historical trend for these to increase in qpf and move farther N with overunning and I REALLY like where parts of our region sit right now with wiggle room working in our favor. Climo favors N and W and elevation snows but we'll see how cold this airmass is. Nice neg departures being show so that might work. This will move N over the next few days.....my worry is too far N and not for suppression. I could see a similar event to the April 8-9, 2016 daytime storm where it snowed moderately all day but accums were only a few inches. That is one trend I dont particularly like is this is moving in faster and might be a Saturday daytime event now but there are still notable timing differences even with this lead time. If we can get this timed for Saturday PM could be a nice hit for many. Stay tuned on this one and dont write it off because it isnt a huge wrapped up lp.....that potential is early next week as the pattern will be more favorable :-D

Nothing like fishing the Striped Bass run up the rivers during snowfall for me. I'll swelter enough flounder fishing during the summer.
I fished for trout when it snowed the first day before, and it's just a wet miserable snow. If you want to fish with snow, go down to the shore for the fall run!!!

Ralph,

Start a fishing thread. I'm a bluefishing fan. Don't eat the big ones but hard to beat the fight.

Trends...That’ll shift N over 4 days. 

No doubt in my mind. Even if not a true "shift" N of the baro wave, the WAA overrunning will spread much farther N and W. You can already see guidance adjusting N. Like I said earlier, there is ALOT of time to go....hopefully not TOO MUCH. Need to still have wiggle room come Friday.

Which is why I feel good about it. The fact that I am currently on the Northern fringe. Now if I were in DC I would be nervous.

Bullseye rule for them in effect. 4-5 days out....check. Bullseye consistently modeled.....check. Ens individual members clustered N.....check. 

The other day I stated we would start seeing some adjusting N with precip by Wed or Thurs and some models have begun showing this already. Once mesos get in range in a few days I bet the overunning expands N and W and the heaviest snow bands adjust N due to seasonally stronger WAA.
