i think when you have a -NAO like that, you just need the -EPO, PNA can be neutral to slightly negative
a +PNA doesn't show up on the mean generally in those KU type patterns. it's just transient as the storms develop
if I had to choose, I would probably be more worried about a CMC type solution more than anything, but a lot of options are still on the table. not worth really freaking out over at this range
you should be in ensemble mode until like 48-72 hours out
the signal for a potentially significant storm is still there. from like BOS to you guys. just use ensembles and keep your nerves lmao
UKMET out to sea, ICON buries Virginia, GFS smokes NYC, CMC smokes you guys, and ECMWF got way colder
pretty well defined idea of what this is going to do IMO
you guys are going to be a hot mess if you lean on the OP runs this much. follow the ensembles. I wouldn't even say there's been a trend towards one solution or the other, we have another model cycle before anything like that can be said
