looks like the 0z euro was a blip.

Maybe but also when the same model is so vastly different in the matter of 12hrs tells U they are having a hard time putting together all the data thus spitting out all different solutions from run to run..As one met wrote with a setup like this best bet would be wait til all the data is better sampled as we get closer to the event which would be Wed night or Thur..

This setup does not bode well for DC/BALT/PHL, historically speaking. Looking at the possibility of a subtropical distrubance with an established ridge out west near the 11th-13th posing a real threat to the mid-atlantic, but obviously what comes of this weekend will have a major influence on this. Fun times lie ahead!

If your going to dismiss a storm after one bad model run you don't belong here...just the same as going all out just because of one great run. We still have plenty of time to go on this one and if the past storms this year are any indication...were not going to know for sure until the short term. If anything...what we can take from this run is exactly how fragile the various components are and how a slight difference in timing can mean the difference between a bomb and nothing at all.

Biggest differences between the GFS and Euro seem to come early at around hour 72. If you look North of Saskatchewan into the Northern Territories, the differences become very evident, and they are important:  

--The GFS tries to connect the PNA ridge and the retrograding block, basically splitting the PV = stronger block with the piece of the PV allowed to 'dig' much farther South in response to the strengthening +PNA (reminds me of the ridge that developed in the post Christmas storm recently)  

--In the same area, the Euro wants none of that with the PV staying together and not allowing the two ridges to connect for more amplification.  

This is where we are seeing the biggest variances on guidance right now and the area we should be keying on in subsequent runs.

I still think it will get most of SNE - including CT and possibly parts of ENY - pretty good.

not on this run

the winners on the run is nyc/long island and extreme southern New Englan with the inverted trough, the coastal misses everyone just about
