Ha.  Damn, I was on it. 

ANyway, looks like the Low is tucked on the coast, literally raining on our parade.   But man, at least it's another fail to track. 

Problem is, now we WANT the blocking/confluence to be stout.   Ugh

its come quite a ways in 6 hours...and thinking how things have trended recently who knows...but CMC was much more fun to look at

just get that low to shift south and transfer south of us and it looks like a slow crawling HECS that got us into this hobby in the first place

Seems like a camp of lows at the 0z EPS favored a transfer in a pretty decent spot.. 6z looked even better with a bit more confluence and a weaker lp before transfer (but of course it only goes out to 144, which also shows how far out this is lol).

Will be interesting to see the look at this panel for 12z, I'd expect some similar looking lps, maybe an improved camp of them.

Thankfully the Euro should swoop in here momentarily to kill hope.  Hope is a dangerous thing.

Euro...hmmm :huh:

Very close...big hit for NW of 95. But the trends both now and seasonal are the key.  Ignore the gfs also. It’s added more confusion then anything else lately. All other guidance is trending south pretty dramatically over the last 24-48 hours and that fits the seasonal trend. I expect further south adjustment the next 2-3 days. There is a limit to how far south though because this is coming across pretty far north.  I’m not as worried this gets squashed south of us as with the Thursday storm.

Based on how tonights storm has trended better I will say that starting tomorrow the Thursday storm will suddenly get better.

Trends since Dec are south/weaker day 3-7 and a slight north amp bump the final 48.

Psuhoff,

You know what’s funny. The storm that forms on the euro is actually from another pac piece that breaks off and rounds the base of the trough. Normally that lead shortwave would just take advantage of the cold, but no, it gets delayed and that other shortwave turns the corner and forms a major low, but by this time a loT of the cold is eroded.

I was going to say this, as well. The recent trend now that the blocking is established is a move south. I was thinking the same even over the last 24 hours or so as this window has popped up. You could see how if this followed the recent trends then it could ultimately give us something to really track...even if the ultimate solution isn't perfection.

That’s too much specificity for that range. The weird double barrel h5 pinwheel aside the track of the h5 and surface low adjusted south again. That’s the takeaway at that range. I’m not even worrying about that weird h5 Fujiwara it pulled.

True, it does show up on the guidance though, that lead wave can’t do it by itself with the confluence that strong and no ridging behind it. You kind of see hints of it on the cmc as well. Was just pointing it out as another way we could get screwed lol

EPS is significantly colder than 0z and further south with the primary.  Matches the OP pretty well.

Confirms my thoughts in regards to the 0z low camp and the improved look on the 6z. Way less lows track into the great lakes and even a few transfers take it off the coast of NC. Good trends, and to be expected at this range. During this time with the Thursday threat the Euro fully lost the storm IIRC.

Why, is it one of the ones in Michigan or Ohio?? :lol:

The primary drives through there and transfers offshore. 0z took way more lps on a visit through Michigan and western New York so that's actually not bad lol. Considering the cold air and CAD signal I guess it's advantageous for us to have it in Ohio/Indiana as PSU mentioned we wanted with the Thursday event.

Some good hits in this mean.. still favors NW but given the seasonal trends we're in a good spot this far out

Don't look at the Euro control lol

Looks pretty decent again.  Enough to keep me paying attention and out of the panic room for now.  Mean low is a in decent enough position, little more cold air to work with (hopefully).  Let's do it all again!

Ah, OK...LOL!!!  So you meant "don't look at it" as in a good thing, hahaha!  I just assumed it looked awful but I guess if the ops Euro was not far off from being really good, then the control would have to be at least that much.
