  1. yup, stronger block is leading to more of that last NS piece getting displaced south
  2. way more consolidated. this is an even lower than normal confidence setup when even the ENS are flopping around like this

  5. not all that different, just disjointed. within the range of error at this lead time
  6. I guess. this kind of setup with confluence leading in along with a 50/50 offshore argue against a true cutter. maybe a runner / transfer, but even that will still bring potentially heavy snow at some point in the evolution. especially with a bomb
  7. cutter? the 06z GFS is a cutter to you?
  8. indeed… better than the 18z run as well. disregarding the OP shift for now, though it definitely remains in the envelope of solutions
  9. this has pretty much every box checked off synoptically: phasing trough over the OH Valley, decaying west based -NAO, huge, slow moving 50/50, and antecedent cold air just a matter of how it all comes together

  12. EPS has some retrograding Scandi ridging going on which is always nice when trying to reload a -NAO
  13. also this exact event is why people shouldn't fret over ENSO. some of you guys might have half of your yearly average by Jan 6 while north of 78 smokes cirrus as we're heading into a favorable pattern. I kinda love the irony
  14. yeah we just need to keep seeing that interaction. i thought the GFS was smoking crack but the EPS honking makes me feel better about it
  15. np! yeah you guys have the benefit of not being that worried about sleet. personally I would take the 3-6" of high ratio powder over 3-6" of sleety cement anyway. even with something like the ECMWF, you'd probably have ratios a bit over 10:1 in N MD with cold surface temps and good forcing aloft with the initial push. these soundings are cold
  16. you guys look to be in for it. this kind of system will favor significant FGEN and heavy snow... there are likely two maxima here: one with the 700mb FGEN that has higher ratios to the north, and another with the wicked 850mb FGEN near DC (there can be mixing issues, but you have the most precip). this 700mb FGEN initially is why I wouldn't be overly worried up north. temps are better too with lesser mixing concerns. overall, looking like a significant event for many in the DC area! enjoy
  17. definitely more of a phasing signal from the EPS over the last few runs as we enter its wheelhouse
  18. definitely more of a phasing signal from the EPS over the last few runs as we enter its wheelhouse
  19. pretty obvious trend towards more phasing here as we enter the EPS's wheelhouse
  20. this window around the 9-11th has been very synoptically favorable for a while now, so I don't think the bombed OP runs are just folly
  21. true. i'll take my chances with a decaying west based block and 50/50, that's usually what you need for a solid coastal. but yes, it's not airtight. pretty precarious setup
  22. EPS had a few stronger members as well. just a signal for now
