But the Euro while by far the best is not so much better that it often is right when its off on an island.  When it is the outlier its usually wrong.  Yea it's more troubling having the euro as the outlier over any other model which would be easier to "toss" it still rarely scores a coup when its all alone on an island, in this case the least amplified of all guidance.  It does however, make the crazy over amplified and too far NW UKMET and GGEM runs less likely...it makes the final compromise calculation closer to a less amplified solution.  I'm ok with what it just showed considering we have 2 major pieces of guidance that are more amplified than we want.  

Good point. Maybe we wind up with a compromise 2" - 4"?

And euro has clearly been bouncing around. I’d give it more credence if it was consistent with its outlier presentation.

I'm just thinking of 2 anecdotal but similar situations in 2017 and 2018 where we were trying to win with a progressive boundary wave...but things were going sideways about 48 hours before the event (it was trending north which is still my bigger fear here) and the Euro came in with a less amplified solution against all other guidance and we hugged it and posted those stupid burger king memes and said "all hail the King" and of course it was wrong and it ended up mostly rain both times and the heavy snow ended up in PA.  

It's pertinent IMO because those were similar setups and the euro proved its not often right when its against all other guidance.  And it tends to sometimes be under amped with these things

Last run (if we're talking about 6z) was the best one I'd seen IMO...most expansive and significant QPF shield compared to previous runs.  

Yep. Looks the same. Maybe, just maybe, a hair better, but not by much if it is. Definitely healthy qpf shield. You and I are near the center of the best panel.

Why has it basically become standard to post Kuchera ratios in here? Just post 10:1 and let everyone figure out if their area might get a better or worse ratio. I’d rather see 10:1 so I know what the QPF output is rather than a goofy algorithm that tries to predict ratios on a number of factors…

hey friend -- I am with you! QPF! QPF! QPF!

Beastly relatively speaking.  Too bad it's AI

It has really good verification within 5 days. After that it gets really jumpy which makes sense because it’s difficult to use analogs at that range since you’re making a lot of assumptions before you get to the critical points in a storms development that far out.
