Agreed, I think that area to perhaps as far west as Hancock (depending on how tucked in the coastal is) are in the sweet spot for this for highest totals. And yeah I figure I’ll have less QPF out there but will somewhat offset with better ratios.
6z EPS snowfall mean almost identical to 00z. 6” along or just west of 95 and increasing west from there to 8-9” in the WV panhandle/81/mountains (note: this is just for the Wed/Thursday event).
This will be the first coastal that I’ll likely be out at Deep Creek...curious if the NW shield of precip is undermodeled in intensity/coverage on a model run like the 6z GFS.
FWIW, Canadian has been pretty consistent for 3 runs in a row (albeit trending even better for us). I’d love to see it score a coup with these high end solutions.
I thought I remember Bob last year talking about how GEFS were known to just follow the OP in lock step. Anyone know how the ensembles have been performing since the upgrade?
Ok I think I finally got the correlation between the two threats.
If Monday is amped + rainier + snow + warm wet + less amped + warm snow - less amped - more amped (squared) + snowier Monday solution = better Wednesday/Thursday solution
