I had 125mph yesterday.....the 150 peak may be off, though. I think the delay means maybe a slightly lower peak, but negligible impact on LF intensity.
Yes....also less time for ERC...the only positive is that it won't be a worst case for surge, as ERCs are a vehicle for growth. Later intensification also means less time to pile water. This is potentially a worst case for wind, not surge.
Yea, my time-table was off by about 12-24 hours...I shouldn't have dismissed that initial shear, but I am not sure that is a good thing for the coast when all is said and done.
To me, the safe way to interpret that at first glance is to not expect a wall-to-wall terd. Doesn't mean go nuts necessarily....especially with the ONI so high.
I think a reasonable floor is more of a 2015-2016 type of outcome in terms of snowfall...as opposed to 97-98 or 72-73.
Nice post. Only two issues with my thoughts from late Sunday/early Monday is that I rushed the RI by about 12 hours by underplaying the initial shear a bit, and probably need to adjust west a tad.
There is quite a dichotomy among the top analogs and it's due to the behavior of the polar domain...this is why I attempted to use the solar cycle and QBO to gain insight into that a couple of week back.
