  1. I strongly approve of the 700mb low track on the GFS.
  2. We've reached peak "north trend" New England forum.
  3. I've only seen the mean on wxbell - wish they had more products available.
  4. Thinking about a generic 8-16" statewide right now. Just not enough confidence to pin down best banding.
  5. I feel like the synoptics on the GFS were pretty similar but the evolution of the WCB and associated QPF was way different. Probably wrong. But I do think shearing out the shortwave and letting convection go wild can do some weird things. The NAM, on the other hand, just does the classic huge jump NW with the southern stream.
  6. Nice call. The southern stream shortwaves always like to come in amped and NW. I guess my biggest concern was always that this thing would get shredded and weaken some as it moved east to prevent the big totals in SNE.
  7. Maybe I’ll just double my paltry 6”-12” forecast and call it a day.
  8. You can see why the GFS sh*ts the bed with the storm in SNE. 700mb low and warm conveyorbelt just falls apart. Not sure it's right but definitely a caution flag IMO.
  9. My biggest concern with the GFS is just how everything falls apart as it comes NE. Probably too much but I think a Euro/GFS blend makes sense.
  10. Storm really falls apart on the GFS once it gets into SNE. That s/w goes into the shredder.
  11. 12km NAM is beautiful for the QPF Queens. I do think it's overdone with such a wide swath of that kind of liquid? Seems fairly progressive and not that classic ML lows closing off and pivoting right under us?
  12. I wonder if the s/w sort of damping out/getting sheared opens the door for non-hydrostatic stuff to start taking over with convection offshore. We'll have less and less forcing from DCVA as that s/w weakens over SNE but may see convection start running the show over the Gulf Stream and messing with the WCB and other stuff.
  13. I have a feeling there's going to be a pretty narrow band along the max fgen zone that gets slammed. I doubt it's nearly as widespread as the QPF queens would believe. I could see something like the 18z Euro (narrow band of really good stuff) and less on either side. Not sure, of course, where that band is.
  14. Yeah I think they were saying that as a reason that confidence is low. I think they changed it last year. They also got rid of Blizzard Watches
