I like PSU's logic that all southern waves have carried juice this year. Most wasted with rainfall but the seasonal trend has not been for weak/washed out light QPF events. We're all pretty much beggars at this point in the season so any snow will be good snow. It's been a rough first 5-6 weeks of met winter in these parts (and many parts of the conus). I for one have seen this happen countless times -- Euro holds out the longest on consolidating the energy and many times will show a shredded out mess at these leads. And seasonal trends have some validity when trying to decipher model output in such a situation, so I'll go along with it... until the 12z euro comes out at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cae Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Candian enesmble continues to slowly improve. 11/21 members get at least 1" of snow to my backyard. There are also more big hits in there than there have been in previous runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euro will show an amped up solution and then proceed to trim it back as the leads shorten. Not saying that's the case this time but there have been some infamous euro midrange crush jobs that disintegrated before the short range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying that's the case this time but there have been some infamous euro midrange crush jobs that disintegrated before the short range. I can remember one of those last year. Can't remember the exact date but GFS was Dr. No and Euro kept spitting out clown maps up till like 48 hrs prior. Then it finally came in line with GFS and I think we ended up with a mix bag if I remember correctly. To my point though... I also remember last year or the year before that all the models were on board and euro took its sweet ole time and everyone was freaking out till like, 24 hours before the event till FINALLY the euro came around almost verbatim to the GFS. So it goes both ways. Not sure which way it's skewed towards though. Your impression (skew) is probably the right one though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one of those times. A lot of very solid hits in there. We'll see if it holds. My thoughts are pretty much unchanged from a few days ago. This is the best shot at a moderate event yet, especially down there. I really want to see the Euro and EPS get on board though.

I don't think anyone is getting sucked in on the GEFS. Not with the euro/ukie showing weak/sheared mess still. But it's posting in bad faith to say the 12z GEFS run isn't the best one yet.
