The HREF isn't updating on the SPC site but I went through the 12z members on Pivotal and they look decent. Definitely northwest of the globals but not nearly as big as some of those crazy NAM runs yesterday.
I think the prob snow forecasts really struggle at this range when you've got a large gulf between the global models and mesoscale models. They're not really fine tuned for that. As we get closer at the higher res ensembles come into view we're in better shape.
This looks like one of these storms that is going to keep ticking NW. I'm pretty enthused here. Wouldn't be surprised at all to see the hires models win with the amped up southern stream.
Yeah and they have figured out bias correction quite well.
Their verification scores are pretty remarkable - I believe they're beating NWS for most variables and all times too. Going to have issues with highly anomalous or high impact events though which is where humans add value... otherwise humans FTL.
Midday newscasts are tough to make wholesale changes unless it's a real short term thing. No point in jumping on things before the full suite of 12z guidance and ensembles is in.
Here's our running forecast. Best chance for highest totals locally is in W CT I think. I do think a pretty prolonged period of junk with the dry slot south and east of I-84 so a lot of snow grains, freezing drizzle, and sleet.
