I admit I asked it myself but it literally was for a laugh lol. Back to regular scheduled programming.

I dipped to -6.2° on 1/21/26‼️

0z RGEM at 66 looks better over the Midwest but heights are pretty flat in the northeast. Compared it to the GFS at the same time at 18z and there’s a pretty noticeable difference. Let the rest of the run play out and see if it improves.

Whatever the RGEM shows will be shown on the CMC.

OZ ICON does bring snow to eastern NC. 18Z did not.

Yeah, I'm waiting to see what it does when it forms the closed low

Should give it move time to round the base and try to get negative for us.

The earlier/further west the ull pinches off, the better our odds of getting some decent qpf thrown our way. Unfortunately, the ICON does it over Virgina and we get nothing. Fortunately, it's the ICON.

Take this back. Actually gets some snow into RIC. Not a lot but not nothing

So at 72h... the RGEM looks even further west with the NS energy than even the GFS/NAM EDIT: it is flatter in front though

Meh try one more time

You have my attention! Great find. I figured for sure the data wouldn't be included until tomorrow. Lets see where we land at 6z!

All you can ask for at this point

I have seen systems like this stop right at the crest of the Apps. I do think we see some light snow from the northern stream. I remain unconvinced this gets enhanced by the Atlantic...for most of E TN (edit). Backing would help prolong the light snow. I think those high end amounts are incredibly unlikely unless that slp shifts to the coast or just inland. I could see far E TN counties benefiting for sure due to orographic lift. This looks like "an east of I81" type of storm - so far. Tomorrow likely dials in this track. Need some big moves overnight for anyone west of the foothills to score more than 1-2" with this.

I was more looking at the western extent of the northern vort. Looked a little bit closer to negative too imo. (Icon left gfs right)

I just looked at it and compared to the 18z gfs. Looks like we would want heights to rise a good bit more in the northeast. 0z RGEM pretty dang flat but yes it does look better in the Midwest.

ICON keeps the 500 closed low north of the Tidewater, rather than over Savannah. A rather radical change, I would think. Edit: Not a huge change over itself, but far from the look of every other model.

It improved .

Weren't you just talking to a robot asking it to share secrets about the Weathernext's 18z run?

I like your spunk

The icon has never once, in its entire existence, spoken.

To me looks a move towards the GFS. Negative tilt & powers further west.

That's an interesting idea because that is basically what you see on the weeklies. It just locks in and stays similar for the rest of Feb and into March.

RGEM now is noticeable further west
