Kinda looks like 09z - 15z was the only really off run. Regardless, good to see guidance like the HHRR (and sure, even the SREF [emoji51]) pivoting back a bit.
3k is a little better. Seems to be because the coastal gets going a little sooner/stronger. Not sure that's how we'd win around DC/Balt but it that was a real trend at some point it could spell well for the southern parts of the subforum - couple models have had a "victory" stripe of 1" or so down there.
People shouldn't mistake my limited enthusiasm for any hopes this is ends up being more than a sloppy inch, and even that is generous. I'd just like to see snow and this is a top 3 window we've had all season... as others have said, sad stuff.
GFS is actually an improvement - precip bumped north and 850s look great down to the south. Just need to have the usual 50mi jump north in 48 hours. Surface temps not as great around metro but maybe heavier precip would help?
Since people might need a mediocre pick-me-up after the RGEM, the 06z EPS was the best its looked for Weds in the past four cycles. Yes, we are talking a difference of tenths. I haven't yet seen a tenth, so...
Early glance at RGEM per the Canadian gov site we haven't yet had to pull out this year suggests largely a hold, though a bit less juicy at 12z. We'll see what the better maps say
