It was a slight step back from 18Z in regards to thermals 

Definitely so, but we did gain a bit more positive tilt and the energy interaction early on was a bit more favorable. Hopefully the GEFS mean is closer to the coast. Goodnight all!

Strongly agree with this. It’s like a double edge sword. Positive tilt and less of a phase thermals can get messed up. Negative tilt and s/w swinging in on backside may make for some colder air on the northwest side but then you also run the risk of the system coming further north and west.

The GFS has been going back and forth all day with the totals from run to run. 

This system has a lot that can go wrong with it still. There’s multiple pieces in play diving down from the northern stream. Any mistiming of the features and you’re going to have a weaker sheared out system like some of the runs have been showing us. I wouldn’t focus overly much on the totals currently. Keep an eye on h5.

Go negative tilt just offshore of hatteras :ph34r:

Canadian will make NC people VERY happy in here. Even more of a positive tilt which keeps it more sheared out and not wound up. Mid levels and surface are way colder compared to the gfs and you get a nice overrunning event setting up.
