It seems as though the GFS focuses on the first wave and the intensity of that wave pushes the boundary too far south whilst the CMC does the opposite. 

Euro for the tiebreaker?

Yeah seems that way for now. At least we have several chances. I'd personally sacrifice the 19th for the 22nd

GFS has a 1044 high in West Virginia which suppresses the storm out to see. The CMC has a trough instead which allows the storm to come right up the coast. Interested to see what EURO has to say.

Nice storm, especially with temps in the 20s and possibly 12-15:1 ratios (Kuchera shows ~15:1, but I don't trust ratios without knowing the situation in the DGZ where snow crystals/dendrites form)...just don't want to get rain on 1/19 and then have to wait until day 9 for snow, recognizing that counting on something at day 9 is a low probability usually...but I don't think the weather cares, lol.

This is the winter of light snowfalls for our area, so it would make sense. We'll probably get another inch next Sunday night lol. At least it would stay on the ground with the very cold weather next week. 

I'm not buying any solution yet. Every model is different with events on different days

Need to see something within 4-5 days honestly.    Next Monday looks like the best bet as we're within a week there-but would like to see model consistency...it does appear to be an arctic wave type setup which we have done well on in the past for some moderate events.

I agree. I was half joking with my comment. I could see the Sunday night into Monday wave becoming a moderate event, but a long way to go on that one. It'll be quite awhile before we have a better idea on next week's threats.

seems like I don't get 7 inches of snow in a month so I will gladly take this solution with 7 inches at my house
