Totally expected. GEFS follows the op most of the time.

One thing of note, as I just had a chance to look at the 12z EPS, snow mean was somewhat less impressive, and there were more than a handful of members with little to no snow.

GEFS is just a herd mentality of the  Op, so I wouldn’t give it more weight than normal. GFS has hopped around while the Canadian and euro have been pretty steady. I’d put my weight there for now. Sure, a flat solution is possible, but it’s the minority chance right now IMO.

Totally agree. Inside day 5 the gefs usually follows the op like a lost puppy. Still wasn't a good run but shouldn't make too much of it yet.

3 sloppy inches seems like a fairly safe bet right now, even taking into account the 18z GFS.  The differences between the GFS vs CMC/ICON/Euro become particularly stark when looking at the upper levels - GFS not only suppresses the steering flow, but suppresses the anticyclonic motion all the way down in the Bahamas.  Not sure I buy that, but the differences between the 18z GFS and the other models emerge within 24 hours from now (check the flow off the coast of Texas) with GFS being much more progressive.  So we'll see.

And besides...this feels a little different than before when it was the GFS vs. the world for several runs...as opposed to just this one run...Even so, there's gonna be some nail-biting and little leads restful sleep if 0z looks the same, lol

Interesting

 

How does the Euro compare in handling the same piece in that timeframe? If this trend is only present on the GFS, then that would hold less weight IMO.

If Ellinwood posts a map regarding this potential event, then it is game on.  :rolleyes:

Well that's a little concerning to my untrained eye...but wouldn't that mean that a south trend would become more of a concern than the northern one we were dreading just 18 hours ago? Lol@psuhoffman Thoughts?

Some of that energy gets absorbed but the main vort associated with the storm is a northern stream system coming into the Pacific NW. The main difference I see with the 18z gfs was that being less energetic and washing out. But maybe I'm missing something.
