to be fair it honestly did a really good job on H500 which is where its highest scores are in, its not meant to be used for mesoscale features
the mesos didn't give us good guidance that day so for me thats another AIFS W
it made those improvements today! that pattern would more than work for us verbatim especially for the typically favored areas
you don't have an uber -EPO like last time suppressing everything to the south and since theres a weak STJ you'd be able to get weaker boundary waves to hit you
