If it's further W, it may be able to draw that storm a bit closer along the coast line. There may also be some OES/OER associate with any troughing between the 2 if they remain as modeled.
You want the ULL over New England either gone of further N and W if you're looking for a storm here. All that's going to currently do is suppress the storm that's coming up the coast.
I think it’s just bad timing. That lead s/w pulls the entire system offshore and the ULL is attempting to re-organzine it along the south coast but does it too late. WCB snows look great then go poof as storm attempts to redevelop.
