6z GEFS is acceptable. Colder and continues with a more SE track than the op.
-
Watch the NS energy across eastern Canada moving into the the 50-50 region. That needs to dig more. The last few runs it has been flatter, thus less confluence and a somewhat weaker surface high that retreats a bit. The timing/interaction there is an important factor for places further south and the coastal plain imo. Increased confluence would encourage the low to track a bit further south.
-
Storms would track NW with the trough in that position though. This is where it would really get good for the MA as advertised. More mature NA block with lower heights shifting into the 50-50 position, and the Aleutian low is in a better spot with a ridge building towards the western US. If this is real the latter part of Jan is gonna be interesting.

Sipping my last 120. Looking really good for the NW crew, and it remains to be seen for the lowlands. A bit tenuous. Last 2 runs of the GFS are perfectly acceptable though.

HNY! I think it may be a struggle to get anything to track underneath for the mid month period with a trough centered more in the west/central US, but just beyond that things look much improved, especially if the EPS is more correct, with a west based -NAO, TPV pinned underneath, and lower h5 heights shifting out into the 50-50 region. Significant improvement on the Pacific side too.

Good 'trends' on the 0z and now 6z guidance. Still a close call for I-95 and east, but now looking favorable for a mostly snow event just west of there. That surface HP over SE Canada is in a pretty good spot and stays locked in.
-
Big difference is with the main shortwave. Way less NS interaction so not as amped. Timing of the waves is much different this run.

Only KUs

LOL HNY Ji.
-
NA confluence FTW.
-
This isn't rocket science lol. You run a weather FB page and don't know this basic stuff?
-
Da fuck? I am all about dat shit.
-
GEFS is made up of individually perturbed members, not including the op which is run at a higher resolution.
-
^ Makes me feel like even here there might be a chance for a little snow. I would feel pretty good NW of the Fall line based on this run.
-
Stronger signal for LP off the NC coast.
-
GEFS ens mean. Looks pretty good for places NW of the Fall line.
-
This is the one that is sort of a sleeper in the all time greats, at least over here. An overperformer even though the forecast was for a major snowstorm. Ended up with 16"+ and lots of drifting. Pure powder storm.
-
I was living just south of Westminster back then. That might have been the best storm ever in my current location.
-
Yes I know.
-
It was. Not that it was awful east of there, but it busted badly. The dry slot possibility was seemingly overlooked.
-
2016 doesn't even make my top 10. Half a storm here. Dry slotted after 15". The deform band yielded nothing.
-
This might be number 6 on my top 10 storms ever, after the 2009-10 trifecta, 1983, PD II in 2003. Feb 79 is in there too but I was too young to appreciate it. Jan 1996 was awesome but the middle third of the storm was pure sleet.

Something like this-

Patience. Things might not get good in the lower elevations of the MA until late Jan. Feb into March could be a memorable period. Just my wag at this point. No one likes to hear that, but it's just the way we roll in Ninos for the most part.
