It’s funny how the OP Euro and machine learning models were both showing landfalls in SE New England in earlier runs before correcting further east toward the consensus. As to why this was the case, we can leave to the modelers writing the code. It may come down to the OP Euro being over amped at times for some reason. But this bias at times can work like in Sandy when the pattern was super amped up. So I guess some storms play to certain model biases depending on the situation. If they could train the AI to learn how and which biases to correct on a situational basis the they will really have something.
In a recent ECMWF blog and a Newsletter article, we’ve been highlighting the rapid rise of data-driven forecasts. These are produced by machine-learning-based forecasting models, created by innovators such as NVIDIA, Huawei and Google DeepMind.
The ERA5 reanalysis, produced by the EU-funded Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) implemented by ECMWF, is the dataset used to train these models. They can make accurate 10-day forecasts when provided with good initial conditions.
This summer, we focused on analysing Huawei’s Pangu-Weather to understand its strengths and weaknesses, with results collated in a submitted manuscript. At this early stage in the technology, some results are already displaying comparable skill to ECMWF’s Integrated Forecasting System (IFS), which is an exciting achievement.

No One talking about TS Freddie?
Dangerous Cyclone Freddy Taking Aim At Africa
There is concern that Tropical Cyclone Freddy will make landfall next week on the eastern coast of Africa with high winds and heavy rain.
&&&
Tropical Cyclone Freddy could be headed for the record books
Tropical Cyclone Freddy formed in Australian waters about two weeks ago and is still tracking across the Indian Ocean, putting it on track to challenge two world records.
The tropical low that would become Tropical Cyclone Freddy initially formed late on Saturday February 4, before being upgraded to a category 1 tropical cyclone on Monday, February 6.
Freddy initially moved to the south until it was about 660km northeast of Broome, where it took a turn to the west. While in Australian waters, Freddy posed no threat to the mainland, Christmas or the Cocos (Keeling) Islands, even as it became a category 4 severe tropical cyclone with wind gusts of up to 265km/h. It eventually left Australia's region of responsibility on February 14, as it tracked towards the west across longitude 90 degrees east.

RAH says sorry folks
NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... As of 355 PM Friday... ...Winter Weather Advisory for 1-2 inches of remains in effect Tonight through Early Saturday for All of Central NC... Little overall change to the forecast, with the main updates being slightly lower snowfall amounts. The mid-level trough is currently situated over southern IL and western KY. This trough will track southeast in the southeast US tonight, with tremendous height falls overspreading central NC. The trough will close off and move off the New England coast by Saturday morning. At the surface, current analysis shows a 1032 mb high pressure over northwest MO. There is a weak surface low over north- central KY tied to the upper-trough. The developing offshore low is roughly 1008 mb off the southeast coast as noted in satellite imagery. Latest radar trends show some echoes over the southern and northwest Piedmont, however very little of this is reaching the ground. The 18Z GSO sounding still showed considerable dry air below 700 mb and this should be the case until the column saturates as the mid-level trough moves over the area during and after 00Z. Rain showers have taken shape along the NC coast. Outside of some light rain over the far eastern Coastal Plain, this activity should continue to push east with the eastward progression of the system. As the mid-level trough dives southeast and off the coast tonight into tomorrow, trough will take on a negative tilt, further adding to the strong dynamic forcing. Lift centered around the 290K isentropic surface will favor a band of precipitation over the northwest Piedmont that will track east-southeast through the overnight into early Saturday morning. The 12Z forecast soundings from the NAM/GFS indicate that only a short period of rain would be warranted, as the column quickly saturates and, along with dynamic cooling, reaches the wet-bulb zero temperature at the surface as the trough moves through. Thus, the forecast continues the trend of little in the way of rain and mostly a snow event. The latest snowfall totals show a swath of 1-2 inches over the western Piedmont, mainly west of US-1, and generally an inch or less east of US-1 over the Coastal Plain. This is roughly in line with latest high-resolution HRRR/NAM-NEST, which continues to favor higher totals closer to the Triad. Still can`t rule out some areas that could see up to 3 inches, especially where isolated heavier snow bands develop with the strong forcing. Temperatures tonight will drop down into the lower 20s over the Triad to the lower 30s over the south and east. Gusty winds will develop overnight as the coastal low deepens as it tracks off the New England Coast by early Saturday. Northwest winds will become sustained between 10-15 with gusts of 20 to 35 mph, producing wind chills in the single digits to teens.

We (atmosphere),, is saturated here on the Coast, Light Rain falling ATM..

Forecast Temps here on the Coast, Busted.. 5 Degrees Lower than Modeled..
It got too 45F Today..
Onset of Precip Is (alot) Earlier than expected, (Was 10 PM or so)..
Temp(s) have now fallen too 42F with light Rain in My Forecast area(s).. Light rain right now..
NWS Local Office Disco has mentioned Thunder snow being Possible,, (Locally)..

Gale & (Possible) WSW here on the coast here shortly..
First cup O' Joe this morning..
Looked @ the Radar..
Showed freezing precip over my head..
Went out & looked..
Sure enough It's Virga falling, from over head.

How much NW movement needs to happen to get out of the ice on the coast? Lol
Not happening..

This may get deleted and if so, I understand but y'all are smarter then me by a lot so I'm going to ask.
How difficult would it be for my area, Jacksonville, to actually get .25-.5 of ice? As someone in their late 30's, I don't ever remember such a think happening down this way. Maybe I'm just trying to convince myself that it's not going to be that much!
Now cast thing..

KILM..
.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/... Shallow arctic air moving into the area Thursday night. A very chilly rain falling will start to turn to freezing rain from NW to SE, not long after midnight over far interior zones and closer to daybreak along the immediate coast. And while the forecast has not changed much in the last 12 hours or so there still seems to be a distinct possibility that the vertical thickness of the cold air may be on the rise and at least part of the area winds up with more of a sleet storm that a near full duration freezing rain event. If so this will cut down on the potential for ice accretion. Sleet certainly poses travel hazards all its own, but tends to be less hazardous than pure FZRA. This is due to the fact that the warm nose now looks less pronounced and a broad baroclinic zone nearly stalls parallel to the coast. The immediate coast may also stand to see lower ice amounts due to a brief afternoon rise (barely) above freezing. Freezing rain persists along the coast for most of Friday night while inland the cold air thickens in height and sleet and eventually snow become favored. Most areas appear to change over to all snow as the precipitation tapers off leading to small accumulations nearly area-wide that may total almost a half inch over interior/west of I95 counties. Due to the uncertainties discussed above all of the Carolina NWS offices have decided to hold off on upgrading the Winter Storm Watch at this time.

I (think) the Modeling (Models), haven't taken this lil tid-bit of Data into account..
(Just My 2 pennies here).. ..
As the Low transfers off the Coast, The SST's here, are in fact, WARMER than usual, than other years.. by 10F .. Temps are still reading 62~65F here on the Beach's..
Pretty remarkablly anomolous severe event Jan. 8/9 over panhandle
