This is completely tongue in cheek, but maybe board mood is a simpler determiner. Nervous/complicated timing/wish it were 6 hours slower = Miller B. Lock it up/models unanimous/celebrate = Miller A. we were all tingly a few days ago about Sunday..... I think dilusional model watching zombified snow starved weenies is a better descriptor for most.

psuhoffman Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I think we're still shading our attitude towards Tuesday with the Sunday fail. Because the last 24 hours has been a steady positive trend with the key feature, the h5 trough digging. And on the whole we have seen a net positive on model output today. EPS and gefs increased snowfall. The gefs was a straight weenie of the year run. If it wasn't for how crappy this year has been or the recent Sunday fail we would be hopping in here right now.

That might be balanced out though by having the Euro come on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say that it was nice to see that mint green light up on the GFS Right....with Sunday, things started to trend to a positive direction 150-168 hrs out....then it crapped the bed starting around 138 hrs, and especially 120. I get its not impossible for this set up to work, but I dont like it. Id love it if I were in Boston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Good AFD from Mount Holly on next weeks potential- Things could get even more interesting early next week. Though operational models are quite variable with the evolution of the pattern next week, nearly all simulations suggest development of a coastal storm. The forecast, as usual, will be tricky, as it involves the phasing of a northern stream vorticity maximum originating from northern Canada and a "more" southern-stream vorticity maximum (originating atop the high-amplitude ridge expected in western North America by this time). System phasing is incredibly difficult to forecast, especially at this range, and unsurprisingly, model continuity is quite poor at the moment. However, there is a signal emerging from the noise. The southern-stream system will dig southeastward from the northern plains Sunday night to the Carolinas by Tuesday afternoon. Meanwhile, the northern-stream system digs into eastern Ontario by Tuesday morning, forcing the southern-stream system to shift northeastward. As rapid cyclogenesis occurs off the East Coast, the cyclone track parallels the coast as phasing occurs. Whether this phasing actually occurs, how/where the low develops, and what the track of the low ends up being all are unanswered questions. Nevertheless, the consistent signal of coastal low development and the general nature by which this process occurs appears to be getting clearer. Increased PoPs Monday night to Wednesday, especially near the coast. The strength of the upper-level system and associated cyclone and the general vicinity of its track suggest substantial QPF is possible, and much of the precipitation would be snow, especially away from the coast. Details are murky at best this far out, but there is at least some potential for a major storm next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
