Ugh now guidance is trending towards a believable south fail. A weak wave that’s not a big snow for anyone. I just didn’t think that’s where it was heading. Even the misses were clobbering SE of us. But if it ends up a weaker system with no significant 8”+
snow anywhere that actually makes more sense. 

I mean, in your defense originally you felt the most realistic outcome in this window based off seasonal trends and climo was a 2-5" type. Again, much respect to you.

Weenie handbook page #247.. storm disappears 96hrs out only to come back stronger than before and reel us all back in. 

This is actually possible. A weaker HP and a stronger vort and we are still in the game. But I seriously doubt the models have it that wrong at 4 days lead time.

One thing this storm threat taught us, the euro Ai model is fucking legit. As pissed as I am to say that. Really bad winter up here in Philly, maybe even top 10. Yea we had some events but we were teased with good patterns that couldn’t produce and close calls.

Can’t control it, move on.

Well, that went in complete reverse. TPV interaction went from partial to…”what interaction?” on the CMC. GFS trending backwards even more so for the S/S wave and interaction with the TPV is pretty awful. Now THAT is concerning. I’m not giving up hope, but man oh man, that is a step in the wrong direction to start the 00z suite. We’ll see what the UK and EC bring to the table because if they hold serve, then it’ll be a medium range model war. Damn

I honestly think it might just because it would be such a legendary cave if it goes bad all at once. Slow bleed out, what we all deserve

It has been bleeding all day though.  Bet it looks similar to the other models

I didn’t want to say anything, but AIFS verification scores have been beating both op gfs and cmc

Short of a turnaround never seen, Gfs beats the Euro too.

It won this week's storm too

It never wavered from a central Va west to east jack, it wound up being a bit too far south (Richmond) but the Euro was jacking northern Va and MD for awhile there.... 

Not trying to make a prediction for this week...

DM me if you want to catch a warm sunset during one of our 100 degree stretch heat waves this summer. We can sip infused water and reminisce about the great Feb 20 debacle and share some laughs and tears.

To be fair, 12 hours ago was also 4 days lead time and the euro icon and gfs all showed a foot plus. But yeah, if this thing hasn’t improved come 00z runs tomorrow night, we’re likely headed for another advisory to low end warning event. Unless the cmc is right… cause then we’d be left with nothing but our weenies in our hand.

Yeah we aren't getting a January 2000 surprise ever again.

It's a shame in a way, would be fun to experience. I was into weather as a kid, but didn't get online until PDII.

Yeah March 2001 was like finding out Tuesday night that it's all falling apart.

So glad I'm not old enough to really remember that. I'd rather find out now than later, though. Still time to change.

Lol. That's awful.

Last night cmc had widespread 20" totals.

This hurts for sure.
