Big difference in my eyes this run was the location of the trough axis over Ontario. It was definitively shifted west by a noticeable margin, which reduced the confluence over the NW Atlantic allowing heights to rise and the s/w to tilt negative faster.

if we got a combination the 00z NAM's depiction of that northern branch and the 18z's better southern branch we'd have something big... at least I'd think

Those were my exact thoughts.

You is right, agree.

I like how the hi-res looks better. Lol

 

Likely way overdone, unfortunately.

Apparently, according to Levi (developer of TropicalTidbits), latent heat fluxes doesn't shut off even at high relative humidity. This lead to convective feedback issues.

Agreed. 18z southern stream looked great, almost closed at 500mb. Combine that with the improvements in the northern stream at 00z and you'd have ignition. I am encouraged that the northern stream came in hot initially. That's a useful takeaway.

If that southern stream s/w would have been better organized, This would have been a big hit for many as that northern stream s/w was much better then 18z.

Agree with you. We're not too far off from good totals from NAM.

Yeah good luck with that save in mid-September with '38 revisited.

In my opinion the models are zeroing in on a track east of the bm and then crossing NS. Best snows de Maine and NB. You guys get a light to mod event west to east. I get snow to rain with high winds. Been thinking that for a while now. That's how it appears to me. See how it works out.
