What's with the duel low pressures on all these? 

Is that the model not being able to figure out the best upper air support vs. baroclinic zone?  All these runs have one low way out there and then another much closer to the coast, amid a large area of generally lower pressures.

Upper levels vs. convection most likely.

I think the ULL forcing is so strong we get the initial storm riding up the coast but than we get the ULL that comes in and spawns another one.

Those of you who want to be in the jack zone right now at d5 are crazy.

Exactly. I'm fine with the GFS being just too far east at 132 hours. Toss in some known biases and you could just call it a hit. ;)

It's a battle between the two.

At worst, we still get few inches of snow along the coastline.

On average,  at least in SNE, you get around 3 chances for a big snow dump per year.  Some years are anomalously high and others low.  I would consider this one chance 1 and squandering it OTS a kick in the cojones.
