I actually thought it was the euro that handled southern stream waves better and the gfs the northern. But that was the old gfs. Not sure this one handles anything well.
Unfortunately you’ll never experience a Jan 25, 1985 east of the mountains.
But I can testify it was something else. We were below zero for about 60 hours ... bottom at -26
Mid Atlantic snow showers are snow flurries anywhere else. If you’ve never experienced convective snow showers you’re missing out. Not sure you can get those on the east side of the mountains.
Deep vortices over the northeast tend to lift out more quickly than modeled. These are actually further northeast but it’s that action that is messing up our system this week. Move those out a bit quicker and the game changes.
There are timing differences showing with the gfs. Pretty big ones for two runs 6 hours apart. First with the ne and the late week system and then for next week. Next week has really slowed. This makes me think that we can expect big changes run to run for a while now.
Northern stream hammer is 6 hours faster this gfs run. Speed it up more and get it out of there earlier and it might make a difference. Keep hope alive.
Raise your hand if you know what the hell @leesburg 04 and @Ji are going on about. All I saw was a post about snow tv and now we are talking about some past event.
