I stand corrected saying the PNA has been positive all Winter yesterday. There is something wrong with the CPC's methodology of calculating.. this is a 1-month period of -PNA.. I don't care that the CPC says it was +pna.  It's not going to actually be one of the most +PNA Winter's on record..

To be clear, I’m not saying jump ship NOW… I’m saying that the trends aren’t great and I want to see what things look like by Saturday, which is when I think we’ll have a better idea what’s going to happen. 

Trends on what model the AI and GFS? Come on man at least wait for the Hrrr to get jumpy lol

yea I agree with this... if we arent seeing a hit on guidance Saturday...we will be within the range where major changes have not been happening...its been kinda amazing how locked in guidance has become once inside 100 hours...people focus on the relatively minor changes like a 30 mile shift here or there because often we are on the edges either of the precip or rain snow line and those shifts matter to our ground truth...but the fact it only changed that much in 5 days often is crazy compared to the past when storms would go from a NC hit to a NYC to Boston hit in that time normally. 

And before people say..."how can you jump ship now" I'm not but I have to be real, yea I liked this period and still do and its a great pattern...but even in a great pattern we can miss a storm like this by a little bit...its amazing its going to be this close...it all came together almost perfectly...but if we get to Saturday its time to admit if its just not 100% right for our location to get a hit and move on to the next wave.  There will be more threats I think in this pattern.

If the EPS looks like that tonight then its game on... but right now we are being teased each run with just enough guidance to make us think maybe...but we've yet to have a run where the majority consensus was a hit.  It's close...real real close.

 

 

I feel like there was storms recently where everything started shifting west in the 48-84 hour range. Maybe it was boxing day or something where it looked like it was going to be a complete miss--then everything started shifting west....still screwed us though but i remember seeing a NAM or GFS run the day before give us like 8 inches lol. i guess models dont do that anymore

Usually depends on how the gfs/cmc look, at least we don’t have to stay up until 1-2am like years back


.

that was the worst lol. Started at 12:45am---ended at 2:00am and most of the time it wasnt worth it...and even worse when we had threats after the time change
