The EURO control is replacing the current EURO as the new operational later this year I believe.. So I've been looking at that as well. The control is always very close to the current OP especially inside day 6-7.. Since 18z op only went out to 90 here's what the control had at 18z for the rest of the storm.
Ya the bullseye is def over us on the MEAN most members jack this area.. The confusing part is the amped NW members are pike north hits which throws off the other maps.. CT is the favored location on the EPS as most of the members have 6"+ there.. The 12" + super amped members (10% of the members) are pike north..
To be fair to @Damage In Tolland euro does have this starting 7-10pm Monday for CT , GFS is 3-6am Tuesday.. It's about a 6 hour thump verbatim with some light snow on either side of the thump ..
Me and Runnaway had 8-10” then sleet raced north to the pike your area and Wolfie and a local max maybe ?. Most in CT had about 8-12” from that one with the jack in Hartford/litchfield county line of 17”.
6z GEFS has so much spread the 50th percentile is virtually nothing for everyone.. Even amount of rainers, and good hits, but more whiffs.. actually like where we are now with gfs being south and euro being north..
What’s funny is the infamous weenie high after being “Nam’d” for lack of better words is not attainable nowadays in the 4-5 day range (which wasn’t always the case). If that EURO run just dropped a 48” snow bomb across all of New England at day 5 it would do nothing for us bc we know it has almost no chance of verifying.
Ya I bet the fact that it comes out first is a big reason why its even looked at and talked about .. If it came out at the same time as GFS and Canadian I bet it would be forgotten.. Having it come out during the dead time can satisfy a weenies craving to get NAM'd or in this case i- CON'd pun intended
Same.. would feel great RT 2 north.. Still can go south as Will said, glancing over things slower seems it would favor south.. some of the bombs on EPS are faster and farther north.. Would be nice to get a regionwide event from Greenwich CT to Maine .. But that's asking a lot I know
LOL I can proudly say I've never had to refresh my webpage waiting for the ICON model to load. Although I hear it's slightly better this winter.. @ORH_wxman what are your thoughts on the ICON's performance recently?
