NAM is always fun for some laughs. I think it was powderfreak who once said that nobody would really pay attention to it if it came out at 1 instead of 930...lol. 

I was spewing a little hyperbole there...some pingers actually prob make it past the pike that run but not by much. Amazing how it changed like 100 miles in one run.

The NAM has long has a south bias with these systems.  It’s not as bad as it once was but I’m not sure I’ve seen an SWFE where the NAM beyond 48 didn’t verify too far south

NAM is usually most aggressive with mid level warmth....

The NAM never seems to handle these events well...outside of the CAD in the valleys but like Ray said it’s often too aggressive with mlvl warmth. Also seems to want to be too dry at the onset of things. After all the experience we have had with these in the boards...you almost don’t even need to look at models inside if like 24-48 hours to see how these event's will perform 

 

I came home to...hardly any snow pack. When I left the morning I still had some inches but it’s virtually gone

Its often right when aggressive with mid level warmth...

The models appear to be allowing that large piece of arctic shortwave energy to eject southeast from the main PV low over central Canada which is speeding up in the latest runs to the storm for Tuesday.  In fact, I would suffice to say, that the arctic trough is allowing the progress of the Tuesday system to slow down more each run as it catches it and amplifies the flow over the Eastern Seaboard.  This shortwave could eventually catch the system entirely and phase within the southern stream disturbance.

Seems like a near 0 chance.

BOX map looks good for now. Could see more ticks north last minute and there is model uncertainty, so I'd roll with that. Might have to watch tail end of storm for some extended -SN Tuesday evening.

Even those few inches will help with the follow-up cold temps.

6Z Euro is rather suppressed. Actually has decent mid levels to the pike.

I'm surprised this keeps tickling south. At some point these usually start ticking back north a little but the NAO block seems to be doing some work...toggling more recent runs vs runs 24-30 hours ago, the heights in SE Canada are definitely lower on the more recent runs. 

The shortwave in the plains is also not as deep. A combo of both of these things.

Any snowmaps?
