We're flirting a bit with being too far south for the coastal....But after the other evening guidance, I think people are going to be very happy with this run

I'd appreciate a jog or three south but beggars can't be choosers. Warning level storm CHO-north, jackpots the usual areas... seems like this run has as good a chance to play out as any.

THAT was one hell of a run for much of the sub-forum. Despite the bit of mixing during part of the coastal for the cities, everyone is puking dendrites at some point during the height of the coastal. US15 to I81 from Winchester to Harrisburg could be the deformation zone on this run verbatim. The whole area gets walloped in all. 1'+ for a ton of the sub. Even with the slightly farther north track of the surface low into southern Ohio, the goods are still delivered. I liked seeing a consistent hold of the ULL as it crosses into the Ohio Valley as well, strengthening again as it moves east. The 7H low cuts right over the Potomac. Just a slightly further south depiction, and it's blockbuster for basically everyone. A great run

Correct, but the concern is that every Euro run over the last 3 runs has pushed the higher totals north.  I hope that trend doesn’t continue tomorrow.

Thanks for your great and reasonable posts.  I am gathering we want the h7 low to be like 50-75 miles S of us for perfection?

I believe his mention of where the h7 low passes is causing that.  If we can get that to move south a tad, the higher totals will come back south... is that right @MillvilleWx?  Or do i have that wrong?

Shift the storm 30 miles SSE and that 24+ jackpot is right over us. Seasonal trend says not so fast however. I was never worried about suppression. I was worried about Harrisburg to Boston getting crushed. This setup reminds me of many classic Miller b’s that dumped 18+” on the New York metro area in the early 2000s when I lived up that way. Not all of them miss us down here, but some certainly do - especially from dc south. 
 

I’d take the euro / cmc blend and run with it but boy, are we playing with fire here if this trend North doesn’t halt big time by tomorrow night

If it trends north we'll likely do better on the front end...It's not a win-win...but some consolation

This! These are rare to see, but there's two ways to actually score here. There's an easy way to score a nice low-end WSW criteria snowfall with the WAA piece ahead of the surface low into the OH Valley. The antecedent airmass ahead is ripe for the picking and is something everyone should be rooting for. I know you know how Miller B's work around back home. It'll be a tight rope walk as usual, but the prize could be epic. The key is keep the primary from going too far north if you ONLY want the coastal. Need the confluence to the NE to hold it's ground and the surface low to not tuck back over land like the Euro. That caused some boundary layer issues for about 6-12 hrs east of the fall line.
