  1. I'm just going to constantly slam F5 on my keyboard when the NAM is rolling out in hopes NCEP will ban my IP address and I can never look at models again
  2. 18z euro about to roll out soon, right? Going to set the toaster oven up next to the bathtub and fill it with just enough water to cover my scrawny little body
  3. Yeah when I looked at that I got a bit excited. I just have no clue what to think. This jump south today is mind boggling. If we see a jump back north on 0z guidance I may just quit. There is clearly something the models are really struggling to resolve. Just going to have to nowcast the next several hours.
  4. Those are my thoughts exactly. Definite a shift on the 18z GFS but man with how H7 evolves you would expect heavier precip farther north and west
  5. My guess it's just moreso the initialization of the features and how they're evolving in real time. Just going through quickly but between some guidance and today, the differences between the evolution of the northern/southern streams don't seem too significant but certainly enough to result in larger differences at the surface.
  6. Well I guess there is some solace in that the 20z HRRR doesn't look any worse than 18z. This should still be solid across much of Connecticut though the max totals probably have to be dropped.
  7. Well time to just start preparing for May and severe season. At least we don't see these epic model fails happen leading up to severe events. Awful
  8. I'm not even sure what I want to see from the 18z NAM. I'm wondering if its just better off to have it join the Euro/Ukie and other 1z guidance versus holding steady. If the NAM holds serve...and lets say the GFS does too then WTF. It's probably doubtful that happens though.
  9. If the 18z NAM doesn't even make a tickle towards the Euro I'm not going to buy the Euro much. If that ends up biting me in the fanny, well I'll enjoy the nibble. If the 18z NAM though does make any strides towards the Euro my level of concern will do a 180 real quickly.
  10. The only tossing I want to be seeing right now is long tossing between Red Sox pitchers and catchers when they report.
  11. It can't be discounted, I mean we've been screwed before in these scenarios. I wonder if there is literature out there on these situations. Someone's had to do extensive research into this. Would be great to have an understanding of when this situation does occur versus when it doesn't. Maybe there is no clear cut signal, models still really struggle with resolving convection, especially in these highly dynamic situations.
  12. I wish weathermodels had more products available but you can clearly see where the problem resides (where it places the low). It definitely seems to be favoring more towards the convection. Its an elongated low which is in the process of cyclogenesis. Additional upper-level tools would provide some additional guidance as to where you could expect to see the sfc low. Regardless, where it tracks the low from this, based on the H7 low track heavy banding would be much farther nw than the Euro has.
  13. The wind will be a factor as well. Not necessarily from a strength standpoint, but winds will be enough to sway branches/limbs, which, with added weight probably makes them more susceptible to coming down.
  14. Yeah I'm pretty impressed with many of the soundings across the state. It's been a while since we seen something like this. Much of the state is going to get into this banding. I suppose it is possible ratios hold back the higher extent of totals, but I am really becoming worried about power issues, especially south and east of 84. That's alot of weight being added to trees/wires quickly. Maybe snow will have trouble sticking to power wires.
  15. GFS/NAM bufkit are an absolute crushing for PVD. Thinking the heaviest banding is going to be NW of here so that bodes extremely well for BOS-ORH-Kevin-HFD like Will mentioned earlier.
  16. GFS just as beautiful as the NAM at BDL. One thing that is interesting too is it seems like the speed has slowed down a bit...or maybe there is some pivot potential but I think it's time to up the totals
  17. Agreed, I think the HREF has a tendency to be way overblown sometimes but I think it has great merit and support in this situation.
