Scott you're a Pro, and I certainly respect that because I myself am not a Pro Met...and I know you know what to look for, but it sure seems to me that the EPS and the Op have been struggling more so than before...and are not quite what they used to be. That's my opinion, and we can be on opposite sides on this, but I'm just not as impressed overall with the Euro as I used to be.
True story: Had the opportunity on Thanksgiving to talk personally with Guy at one of my buddies house that was a Pro MET who works on Mt. Washington, and I brought this very point up to him, and he said he feels that when they tweaked it/updated the Euro the last time, he agreed it's not as good as it used to be...he said whatever they did to it, made it worse(his words). This young guy knew his stuff, and is going for his PHD so he can teach Atmospheric science at a University.
