A lot to like about the fact that a 1035-1040 High is to the NW of the Tuesday wave. I'm wondering if the Sun-Mon wave missing us to the south is actually helping us by laying down the track for the Tuesday storm.

I was actually just thinking the same thing about the Sun-Mon wave.  Is the fact that it's somewhat weaker and farther south actually allow the Tuesday wave to grow more, gain more moisture, etc.?  While also being colder overall.  It seems as if the better solutions lately have focused more on the 11th-12th wave, oscillating on how strong it is, how far north/south, where the snow/ice line is.

no other model shows monday snow for us--so i am not sure why we losing panties

I'm not sure it's good for us anyway.  The real storm is much better and colder if the lead wave is suppressed

He is kind of in the same boat as RevWarReenactor. Misses out/gets fringed on a lot of scrapers/sliders, and struggles with the marginal events where it snows just to the NW. 

that’s kinda what I thought. I lived in southwest NJ for 13 years. I’m familiar with the climo there. It SUCKS!!!

We need that SER to calm down or it's mix precip to rain for us and snows in central PA north time after time.

I mentioned this early this morning. Not ideal for MA snow. And not the pattern we were seeing advertised several days ago. Honestly surprised we are seeing such snowy solutions on op and ens guidance. Caution to the weenies who don't take failure well. B)

the CPC forecast is based on the GEFS, which looks the same. those indices aren't really that useful since they provide no context

See that pressure pattern of -500mb heights south of Greenland/Iceland vs +Heights off of Africa.. that's +nao. What you are looking at is -AO.  When the negative 500mb moves south of New Foundland latitude.. that's -NAO, but north of that is +NAO. That latitude difference correlates with +temps in the Mid Atlantic and Southeast.

It's why we really need to score early to mid next week because that's when we have the best High pressure to our north and cold air feeding south. Looks like the SER ruins it for us after those initial waves until maybe the longer term guidance kicks in with a tamer SER. But there's always a risk that fails too like modeling from several days ago. Oh the life of a weenie.
