Is it really a northern shift or just the majority of operational models favoring a more northerly track? They're on the northern end of the ensemble spread and could be outliers in their own right, we just don't know. Most important element is where the system enters the CONUS. Euro still has a strong surface low for a clipper/hybrid at 997 mb over southern IA then weakening a bit eastward, but most importantly it enters the CONUS farther west than the farther north op models. Hate to overuse the lack of sampling argument, but I really think the multiple moving parts, complex evolution, angle of approach, make it that we're unlikely to have consensus until we get more observed data on the important features. Chiefly the primary wave coming ashore into northern BC later tomorrow. I continue to think that I-80 and north in IL into southern WI will do well, with highest totals I-88 and north, and going to hold with that thinking until things become more clear.
