Yeah airmass is total garbage so will need dynamics. But man that’s close. That is night and day from 00z. Compare that s/w at 00z near Kansas City is now in Illinois and being incorporated into the trough at hr 60 on the 12z run.

So scooter , how is the airmass for coastal folks , advisory amounts will not cut if for snow there ? Go big or go home ?

If its light drizzle, the system is crap, anyway, so who cares....if there is a big storm, most will see big snow.

The one aspect of this that isn't at all complicated.

Sure but we have a whiff we have advisory level and we have major hit . A few options . I believe many are ok with advisory level and that may not cut it with dynamics .

Starting to remind me of some of those late 1980's ticker-tape bombs that used to scroll at the bottom of TWC updates... portending doom..only to have the low shift just a c.h. SE at the last minute after suffering three periods in a row of blizzard headlines and 1978 comparisons... 

only now, the models might just have a clue that a near miss is in the tea leafs..

(sarcasm..but - )

It got left behind at 06z, And the other models are doing that as well, Its makes all the difference.

Well, TWC has all but written this off for us, so the Euro wants some payback now.

Well, I think if it came close enough, it would flip to a 32 Fahrenheit isothermal paste. If it’s just very light precip, it’s more less inconsequential.
