At face value, it's a good setup for heavy snow late Wednesday. So what could go wrong? My main concern is the northern extent of that heavy snow. Will be watching the trends and should be more clear by tomorrow AM No need to rush

still days away

The storm that heads off to our south tomorrow becomes a beast in the North Atlantic. Will be an important part of the follow-up storm that's our main snow chance

Yep, small nuances mean a lot in practical weather for the size storm that is forecast to become.

Which run will the GFS cave to the EURO on....

You sure it won't be the other way around?

This is the third run in the row that the GFS has done this, so it's not like last night when you could maybe dismiss it as a fluke run. Not to mention we do have a monstrous 50/50 low and strong Canadian high.

We have had snow storms where the GFS does this 8 runs in a row, and hasn’t come around until it’s already snowing LOL.

Of course this could be the solution but it’s in the minority of guidance at the moment.

It's the third run in a row and virtually nothing else has followed it. It's possible to be consistently wrong. I'll perk up when everything else slides its way. 

We'll do the same thing we did at 00z.

Just the GFS and its ensembles. We'll see if the GGEM, UKMET or Euro catch on to this. Hopefully not, of course.

I hate to even mention it but the 12z CMC looked like a big hit.

What’s up with this giant blob of convection well S.Eand almost a dual low structure

 . Is that associated with that trailing S steam energy that goes thru Florida and causes This to shift East on some models

NAM upper air was significantly more amplified at the same hour so I doubt it would have moved the same.

Yeah I think the problem this run was a weaker s/w. It never gets latitude and then just triple points eastward. To have a prayer up here it needs to be zonked and curling toward LI before the redevelopment more E-ENE.

Gfs run to run consistency on snow axis is pretty good, at least it’s consistent.

Almost nothing north of Boston... to low end warning SE areas

The GFS has come a long way.  Although I believe it’s too far SE and it’s not grasping upper or mid dynamics and hence QPF it was always reasonably close to other global guidance from 5-6-7 days out.  As recently as 5 years ago that never would have happened
