To be fair, even with the GFS holding steady since that awful 18z run the trend for DC folks hasn't been great. Simply put we need the GFS type deal where the surface low books a hard right turn allowing the ULL to swing under down by NC instead of over us.
If the GFS got some better support from the euro then it would make many feel better. The 0z to 6z shift for the euro helps. Will it keep going for the 12z? YOU better hope so.
