Eh, I'm like the other poster in this thread...this kinda thing does make the heart beat faster, but who really can be vested in this yet.   We had these numbers last time for the storm that just passed a week out.  Although @psuhoffman does have a point...this is a different evolution, different animal.   But still, the last storm put the fear in me, so I'm not ready to jump all over this one, no matter how much I want to.

Also, I hate we had these runs today, because some of you will become absolutely unhinged and unmanageable when things start see-sawing with the models.

Was this your "don't make me stop this car" speech?

I'm trying to tell you son, so you won't be heartbroken.  Check your expectations this far out.   You live in the MA, you know how this goes.  I'm already scared of the future runs because you know there are going to be some stinkers in the mix and it may bounce  back.  I'm just trying to temper expectations...I'm a vet, I know how this shit could go down.  If this was Sunday, I'd be fired the fuck up

I'm actually with you on this... this isn't the 90s anymore...the BIG ones dont just pop up and the whole "that's just where we want it" crap has never worked for us in the last 10 years.  Around 150 hours out the models actually have done a pretty good job of getting fairly close to the right idea.  That doesn't mean the details are perfect and you get the random hiccup runs and outliers you have to toss...but from 150 on in if you take the consensus of all the guidance its been pretty good at showing about what would happen with major systems.
