Well at any rate, the threat is still there.

 

Unfortunately, we haven't gotten any closer than yesterday. It's delayed 24 hours form the original depiction yesterday. The delay will probably mean the coastline is SOL until the the storm is at their latitude for backlash (if it happens). But even the high pressure orientation could change...if it holds more N of Maine for a longer period, than that is a better flow.

Eh, a little bit different...you'd have trouble in this one with the mid-levels. N of MA border though gets ripped in the interior. Esp N ORH county to GC to Monads.

It's just one verbatim solution though and the details don't mean anything yet.

Would it be an icing situation or is this run more rain/ snow line verbatim?

Would be nice to see the gfs latch on

The Fact that the Euro went back to a big storm again, closer to the Coast is very interesting.  It's a even more indicative that the GFS is showing it's biases.  If the Euro comes back tonight with a similar solution, you can put some stock into the GFS coming around soon there after with a bigger storm that is closer to the coast.

What helps though for areas closer to the coast is the huge closing off at H5. That makes wraparound snows more likely than they usually would have been.

Yeah both the Ukie and Euro show decent wrap around...too bad this is still D5+...just like yesterday was.

You can see by 96 hours on the Euro why it produces while the GFS doesnt....remember how I was talking about the main shortwave on the GFS riding the Canadian/US border and you could follow it the whole way from the west coast?

 

 

Well by 96h, you can see the Euro has the shortwave digging well south.

Yup. Seems fairly simple really as to what will determine if we see a storm. If we see the shortwave digging, we'll have an event of some form on our hands, if it's allowed to remain flat like the GFS has it, we'll have little to nothing.

Should be noted that at hour 120, no one in our region is above +1 at 850 despite the 850 line being up in northern MA. Wouldn't take much of a cooler tick aloft to make this a more interesting solution for SNE, although the BL will need a little more work.

 

 

I've got the 850 0C line in N CT at 120 hours...maybe the graphics on your vendor are a bit different. But it shows how nobody should be using these details whatsoever at this time range...the model error at this range is so much larger than the difference in both spatial distribution and magnitude of the mid-level temps.

Exactly, we're both making the same point I think.

 

What matters is the general idea that a coastal storm will be somewhere in the area that is favorable for us, and considering the model guidance we've seen so far today, that idea seems to be gaining credibility.

 

And OT, but if this does end up verifying, the JMA wins this event. Had this a cycle or two before anything else picked up on it.

And it comes out like porn at hour 132, lol.

It can only go downhill from there.

Haven't you been saying that with every event and you have gotten hit pretty good in most of them? Lol

You will do fine.... As always.

That high being in a less favorable position is a killer down here. We had a shot If it was placed right

Broken clock syndrome. :lol:

 

That model shows a big storm so often that it will always be the first one to show it.

Well luckily nothing is locked in at this juncture, Just let this keep showing up for another day or two

Details being irrelevant at this point, but seeing the GGEM/UKMET/ECMWF all with a strong low near the coast next week raises confidence in some sort of storm. The EURO has been doing well in this pattern lately, so the GFS non-event isn't as concerning.

If you blended the models and put the low a little further east, that's a size able hit for the interior SNE/NNE.
