  1. Right....assuming its placement of synoptic features are right, which is dubious unless you know to only utilize it at close range in warm air advection scenarios. Its a great tool if used correctly.
  2. Exactly....everyone will cling to either the "no snow " or, H5 plots as validation in the face of mounting frustration. Can see it now.....everyone wins (loses). People need to salvage forecast victory in the face of dissapointment with respect to sensible weather outcomes.
  3. I will issue tonight...wife and 3 kids are back, so need to clean my son's rhea off of my arm and nap before dealing with the Sunday-Monday rhea.
  4. I used the NAM for that last SWFE event and the thermal fields were perfect. That said, I am not expecting a ton of snow here from this system...too many flags.
  5. Nothing against him....the pattern is explosive, high potential and resembles that of a modoki el Nino....but I don't like the overall look for NE snow. He will tell you the same thing....but its the type of pattern that will protract and intensify bickering because it will exacerbate frustration, while leaving each side a pathway to claim "victory" that will be used as a means to compensate for said frustration.
  6. I am not optimistic about this first 10 days of February or so....has SNE bone-job written all over it and the bickering will continue. People like Pope and Omega will be citing the lack of snow posting clown GIFS, while Brooklyn will be posting animated plots of a bowling ball plowing through Halifax and Georgia.
  7. Sure it makes sense, but east of us, unless the whole pattern corrects westward.
  8. Man, you can see how this pattern can make someone want to extract their eyeballs with a pair of tweezers........big ULL buries itself in the SE next week and slides out to sea fast enough to not interact with the diving N stream, which then blows up too late and murders the Maritimes next weekend with a new ULL posted to bury itself in the SE again. Hate to say it but I think that is what makes the most sense...its the kind of sequence that can make one long for spring.
  9. I don't like the banded/blob runs...its the guidance conveying that the mid level dynamics are marginal. Euro just pulled that shit again.
  10. Well, the mid levels get cranking late and there is some deep layer easterly flow, so that is probably why its a bit less in the valley.
  11. Looks like New Brunswick gets the demon on 00z GFS....N ME gets a decent hit.
  12. I ran the 00z GEM from my basement....slight se shift. Jacks my old hood in Wilmington with just over a foot.
  13. I was so lucky that Jan 7 event flipped to powder........CF slipped through at like 430AM after about 8-9" of paste.
