That 06z GFS was a MASSIVE step in the right direction. If you go to pivotal and look at the model trend for the 2PVU Pressure, it is very close to what happened on that magical 18z Saturday run. The shifts are stark, there is no denying it. 

Can someone please explain the usefulness of the 2PVU maps?  I feel as if just recently I’ve noticed them referenced more on the boards.  Do you look at them as another way to view the vorticity, similar to looking at the h5 vorts?  
 

I was trying to read a little more here, but this appears to be a slightly different  topic.

RGEM is a step back... hopefully not the start of a trend

 

Looks like RGEM give the cities another 0.3 QPF from 12z Fri to 12z Sat - that would be a win.
