I hear these things and wonder...  the last...I don't know... half dozen or so ice threats have either never materialized or have been minor (the mid- December one was ok)

Even before the 2008 storm it seemed we had several in the mid 2000's that were better than the last few years.

Ice doesn’t Mean damaging, but you just get them rather frequently.

12/17/12 was a pretty good one in ORH county...I remember getting around 3 tenths of ice accretion in that.

 

Last 5 years though haven't had much...mostly minor events...though we had two this past December...Dec 12 and Dec 23-24. Huge ice events are rare though...even in the ice capital of New England...most are typically transition events or moderate to minor events.

That high is in a good position. That’s usually a sign to take ‘em down. But nit sure it presses down enough to really go cold in SNE, save maybe Dave’s area. It would be nice to see if we can get a meso low to develop and tuck the cold in.

for now ... more willing to bet it stops the GFS' warm sector-like solution entirely ... while landing us a tick or two too warm for freezing.  But, things are in flux though

The high position is awful compared to 00z. The 12z run stays bottled up near Hudson Bay...doesn't impose its force down into Quebec and New England like the 00z run.

I’d rather have the GFS buy in than the GGEM. Modest changes on the GFS, but HP was def more like the euro in terms of position and how long it holds on for.

That certainly won't work verbatim, But then again, Its the GGEM, and its swings, Just have to keep monitoring this going forward.

It did look slightly better, But we are still outside of the Meso's range on this too so we only have the global's to go by right now, We still have to see how the ensembles look.

The 12z GGEM would represent a pretty epic fail for the EPS at 96 hrs. That’s night and day. 

The setup isn’t complex either...

I’m flagging GGEM antics on this run.

I would be careful you did this with the big rain/cutter where the EPS was much too cold and much too south in the end.  GFS destroyed the Euro with that cutter.

The high can do whatever the hell it wants, but if it can’t press down...then you can whack it to positions all you want. There is a boundary near surface and just aloft over NNE. If that can’t muscle south then it’s not much frozen. The euro does this, while the others do not. The high is pressing it south but increased SW flow aloft fights this.

well... one up shot for a GGEM type evolution is that for SNE proper it keeps back-dooring contention out of the way for Sunday... That day becomes the warmer of the two.  And, it's actually mild-like on Monday. 

i realize that pleasant waft air on weekends actually causes pain for a lot of users in this social media, ... but still, there is an upside for the majority of society. ha. 

this Euro run will be interesting after 00z trended more committed to the coast with more bl resistance.  if it goes the other way so boldly, it would be on the rarer side to see that particular model do that at this range.

No that was much different. Not a good analogy. Also Euro may have been a bit too cold in the end, but it latched onto the colder track first. What was once a “cutter” tracked into SNE, and it was right about that critical aspect early on.

We also didn’t have a good high with that one, as we do here.

Folks seem like they wanna grouse regardless...  but, fwiw, the NAM solution(s) for the 60-  -84 hr frames wouldn't allow a GGEM solution anywhere over the real-estate of the NE U.S.

Yes...the high position is totally different...bottled up in Hudson bay versus pressing into Quebec would be night and day..esp for NNE.
