GUIDANCE ASSESSMENT/PREFERENCES...

NOTICEABLE DIFFERENCES WERE SEEN AT THE SHORT/MEDIUM RANGE
HAND-OFF IN THE MID-ATLANTIC/NORTHEAST AND ADJACENT W ATLANTIC
AS
A SYSTEM DEPARTS WELL OFFSHORE. MID-LEVEL TROUGH (OR PERHAPS
CLOSED LOW) SHOULD EXIT THE DELMARVA EARLY THURSDAY PER THE 00Z
ECMWF/UKMET/CANADIAN (AND THEIR ENSEMBLES) BUT THE 00Z/06Z GFS
RUNS (AND GEFS ENSEMBLES) WERE QUICKER/WEAKER WITH IT. GIVEN THE
TENDENCY FOR THE GFS TO BE TOO QUICK OPTED TO PUT MORE WEIGHT ON
THE SLOWER CAMP BUT STILL PREFERRED A QUICKER SOLUTION THAN THE
ECMWF-LED CLUSTER VERBATIM
. PLEASE SEE THE LATEST PMDHMD (SHORT
RANGE DISCUSSION) FOR DETAILS ON THIS FEATURE (AND WITH THE LATEST
12Z GUIDANCE) AS IT TRANSLATES INTO THAT TIME RANGE.

Yep, and wpc is leaning away from the GFS solution. 

I'm in agreement with Griteater.  The WPC discussion I posted above basically expresses low confidence in a final solution and forecast.  There are some big differences between models in the short and medium range, and I would argue that there exists noticeable differences between observations and models in the short range.  There are just so many factors at play with this event.  Don't think we'll have a good idea until tonight.
