You're not kidding.  Isn't NAM getting near it's wheelhouse?

It is, but at the same time we’ve seen the NAM do this plenty of times. 
 

Verbatim though it approaches 2/5-2/6 2010 level totals, but in reality probably about an 8-12 type event given the NAM’s propensity to spit out high QPF.

If the GFS makes a move towards it though it is game on as the euro is hinting at the same sort of trend.

One thing that is refreshing is not really having to worry about mixing issues.  I know it's not that kind of storm, but still.

Also, has the energy been sampled yet by the models?

First one with true samplings is probably 00z tonight. Just speculating though.

RGEM 12z moved east. There is no way the NAM is correct. Id bet that the European will correct back southeast in the next two runs. 

Honestly, that 12z run of the RGEM is better than the previous 00z and 6z The position of the energy and the low is further west. The precip shield isn't as impressive, but im not too worries about that. Keep watching the energy

Although the snow maps didn't change much on the GFS, the 12z low placement does look further west so I think it is actually a step in the right direction. 

I believe I'm squatting right now so can't look at it fully but the low is deeper too.

I jumped to the snow maps without looking at the H5. Thats good news if the H5 improved. I'm hearing the GEFS moved slightly north too.

I've seen the NAM overamped before, but this is taking it to another level.  It is on its own so really it can't be trusted, especially with the GFS and Euro being as relatively consistent as they've been.  I do think the GFS will jog a bit more northwest before the event.  Enough to save a fringe job?  I don't know.  3-6" might be a fine "catch all" and if it overperforms, so be it.

Not speaking specifically to this sub forum, but feels like there will be a lot of disappointment across the board with this one.

I honestly think central pa will really be the only area that does really well. Dc, philly, and nyc I think are going to be very unhappy.

The fat lady is warming up for us...not that we didn’t expect it as we’ve seen this song and dance about 50 times the last ten years.

If the Euro trends at all south east ill jump off the train. Let's wait and see what it does.
