12z GFS is so F’ng close here. Verbatim, the column goes below freezing by 06z. Then between 06z and 12z… 0.87” of QPF falls as presumably snow.
Edit: looking closer the column is frozen closer to 03z. From 03z to 12z ~1.4” of QPF falls.
These are the type of systems where 9 times out of 10 you leave them underwhelmed because the models printed out 12”+ and you ended up with 3” because sleet, crappy rates, etc.
On a personal note: these two eclipses could not have been more poorly timed for me.

2024: baby #1, broke as hell and new job.
guess I’ll have to travel the world for the next one.
"Euro isn't the king it was" is just fodder for when the Euro doesn't show what you want. If Euro were printing out the GGEM right now, y'all would love it.
