    For all the uncertainty in the ensembles, GFS OP looks like it;s headed for the same solution as 18z. Nothing major changed through 84hrs.

    Significantly more confluence in the NE. what are you talking about?

    Not liking what I see from the gfs so far out east. Maybe something else can balance it out. Could be even further west. 

    I take back what I said. Ocean storm is phasing more effectively with the TPV allowing for lower heights over the NE. Not exactly sure why the phasing helps to allow for lower heights but that is the result.

    That minor a change is noise at that range on an op. But go back 36 hours when I think the storm was as it’s southern most point on models and look at how much the SW has slowed. I agree there has been some weakening of the flow up top but I think the slower progression is the larger influencer. 
     

    Say morning the SW is over western KS when 36 hours ago guidance already has it entering the Ohio valley bumping into that confluence and getting squashed.  The SW has also trended stronger and is digging much further west. That change seems a lot more significant than the relatively minor relaxation to the NE. Let’s put it this way, if that SW was as weak as models had it 4-5 runs ago and positively tilted over Indiana instead of cutting off over Kansas Sat morning I am pretty sure it would still be a non event even with the slightly less confluent flow. 

    Do you find it strange that the OP has consistently been further west than its own ensembles. Could the OP be seeing something different. Not sure what I would give more weight to at the moment.

    Like Roger Smith just stated a few posts above....pretty much ignore the ICON (and JMA).

    Someone from a different forum said it quite well. The icon is a miss because of what happens near Boise around HR 60-66.
