I’m more worried about tucking and a NE/interior event. Models sometimes underplay strengths of shortwaves headed from Colorado region. On the plus side the 50/50 is timed absolutely perfectly. I’m still at the “what could go wrong” stage. This is why we play the game though ha. Cautiously extremely excited, those 6z ai runs were pure porn
Ha over on discord I said the H5 sort of reminded me of Jan 31-Feb 1 2021. Idk what it was, some of the model runs had the same look to them as that one. Someone on Philly discord posted the H5 and it’s almost a perfect match
Spacing between the lakes ULL and our wave might be problematic, but this was a huge change and nod towards the good camps. It actually has the storm. Last model we need is the cmc
The pac giving the models problems. Play gfs/icon vs cmc H5 and you can sort of see why they’re doing what they’re doing. I don’t like that the 6z euro is camp cmc, but hopefully that changes here soon
Here is ukie, Gotta see temps first not sure where it goes from there. CMC has completely different spacing vs icon/gfs/ukie. Would like to see the euro/ai be in the good camp. PAC is likely to give models some issues next 2 days or so until the progression is settled on
Hard to get excited until we see the cmc and euro come on board. Wave spacing coming off the pac is the reason we’re seeing large differences in the models. Let’s see what rest of 12z shows
Didn’t see it posted, but 18z euro op looked potent end of run, strong main shortwave, there was a ULL NW of Maine about to swing SE and nice compressed flow ahead of our shortwave
Right there with ya. Second big “what if” event of the year. The ensemble members/few OP runs that dove that N/S farther W produced MECSs. Sucks knowing how close we were to something big.
24th range still has an outside chance. It’s the next time frame that could produce snow. Couple shortwaves track east from the western trough, knocking down the ridge some. If we can time the last of the bunch well it could work out. 6z euro Ai gave us a modest event.
