What’s “folks” HECS?  A 8-12” snow is a once every 4-5 years event lol 

Remind what you said a few days ago about the accuracy of the GFS versus the ECM in Canada with the Northern jet in various regimes, PNA/EPO?

Rant:: Let's do 10:1 posts for snow maps. If you want to do Kuchera.. Fine.. I like Kuchera when we are borderline and it cuts down totals because 10:1 is unlikely, but it seems always overdone and it is annoying to keep seeing them. Do 10:1 maps and then we will let mets to do analysis on dendrites when we get close. 

 

 

You're right.  But nobody is paying for WB so those Kuchie works of art can stay hidden

You mean the Euro that gave us 5.5-6" in its last run before the flakes started to fly? Lol

Well there’s a difference in a 50 mile band miss and a actually storm forming hahah. Not like euro has a coastal showing 10-20 east of us and we hope it shifts west. It’s a whole different look at h5

They all have their problems and perform at different levels for each. For whatever reason, the Euro has performed 50/50 on last minute runs while I've been up here and it's always too high. I hate it with a passion. Lol

My location as well, forecast was 6 to 8. Total here was 3.5 inches. 

Saturday has potential, might even trend colder. 

Mount Holly states -    

It will still take several model
runs to get a handle on this system. For now, will follow NBM PoPs
and carry slight chance-chance PoPs over the area Friday night
through Saturday, and even though forecast high temperatures are
above freezing on Saturday, based on wet-bulb temperatures, the
dominant p-type would be snow.

High pressure returns on Sunday and Monday.

its not over

The most accurate I find are often the positive snow depth change. People dont like those because they are lightest of the bunch, but more realistic than the Kuchie maps

Noooooo they are not.  Even in the most marginal of cases, they usually are too low.
