Let’s see what 6z has to say. The ole 6z//.. Notorious for depicting QPF laden bombs and clown maps within 36 hr, just to pull back at 12z. ^_^

Man. Wish we had a LITTLE more consistency in solutions, but it’s hard when the models are trying to handle part 2 of a storm when part 1 is nowhere near the area and there’s so many moving parts associated with this setup. Miller b’s are tricky. They can’t bite us to the NE... but when they pan out....it’s a thing of perfection.

I feel the same way models say this this this then one model out of no where closer to the event says oh not. then forecast for me says fri will be 52 how can you even forecast that when the models have problems with a storm 48-72 hours out.

The origins of this is out there now. How is it, where is it as compared to forecasts  for it  at this time ?

 

Good luck extrapolating where a deform of a coastal that hasn’t formed yet sets up in 72 hours from current observations. Let me know how that works for you.

@high risk and @ers-wxman1 can chime in with how much it does/doesn’t mean but the EPS does not support the dryslot on the op. Increased qpf significantly again especially over N VA.  Very slight cut back from WAA but significantly increased the CCB from 18z and we thought that was a great run. Totals dropped SLIGHTLY along the southern zones due to the loss of some with the WAA and deform won’t help south of EZF but increased everywhere else.

It already has worked well.  Analogs. That’s why I asked snippy.

Every storm is unique. Analogs give you goalposts but yesterday for instance the top 4 analogs included 2 storms that dropped less then 3” on the DC metro and 2 storms that dropped over 20” so you gonna forecast 2-25”?

I added the first group just after you quoted my original post which only had the 2nd fyi

Man. That was a solid EPS to end the night. Anybody else pumped for 6z? Alright. I need to sleep a little bit. Can’t wait to track some more with y’all in a few hours. T minus 30 hours until snow!!!!
