The GFS verbatim could be snow or ice even down here in Austin-cold air here notoriously pushes south of the 850mb zero line which causes the freezing rain/sleet outbreaks around DFW. It doesn't reach down here often but a setup like that is how it happens. There's a strong high pressing east of the Rockies as well to cool the surface.

 

I'd love to see this city try to function with 1-3" of snow and freezing rain. You think Boston is having a hard time now? :snowman:

 

I've worked in Austin.  10 minutes of sleet and they shut down.  You'll see.

This almost isnt even real. After an inland runner going over Buffalo ( and people panicking aboutn rain for us), we had 6 straight runs moving south and or east 50-150 miles each run. Now the latest run shifts an additional 350 miles!! Not sure I've ever seen such a change in a 72 hour period. I realize it's post 100 hours for these models, but...shouldn't the models be doing a little better than this in this 120-144 hour time frame?? Good grief. 

GEFS looked decent and the ukmet actually came northwest at 00z so it's probably not as bad as it seems. The ukmet has been doing better than the euro at this time range recently anyways. It seems pretty familiar to "lose" a storm 120–132 hours out only to have it reappear 24–36 hours later.. maybe because of poorer sampling in parts of the northeast Pacific where the main players are.

So lets summarize.  The GFS is East, the Euro is east.  The GFS ensembles are actually more like the 18z gfs, so I would put that in the west camp.  The nam isnt in range, Can anyone fill in where the GGEM is and Ukie?

 

EDIT: GEM is also East.  UKIE is on the eastern envelope but not as far east as the GGEM or the latest GFS.

Go back a few pages, all the information is already there about the 00z runs.

I scrolled back through and didn't see anything about the GEM or UKIE, which is why I asked.  Unless im just blind, which is certainly possible  :axe: 

 

I did just go and look online for myself and the GEM is also east.  Dunno where to find the Ukie thoug.

 

​EDIT: never mind, found them both.

The +NAO is not helping our chances with this at all, in fact it is largely responsible for the progressive and ots solution.

IMO With a POS PNA , Heights should rise on the EC . The NAO Being POS argues for this to  be progressive through the flow and slide east  . pna.sprd2.gif
