Icon says let’s sacrifice the 8th for the 11th

We fail often when we do the sacrifice storm 1 for storm 2 thing. It's somewhere in the weenie handbook between hunting epic patterns that are a near-guarantee to produce and storms manufacturing their own cold with marginal antecedent airmasses.

You can tell just bad OP GFS is right now.  It cuts the 12th threat which is impossible with all the “red” (blocking) on top.  Zero chance it cuts with that look at 500.

The gfs has been a wreck BUT the reason it cuts there is that it was so anemic with the system on the 9th that it fails to deepen enough of a 50/50 feature and a lot of ridging pops over the northeast. If that happens something could cut. Remember it’s as much the 50/50 that prevents that as the -NAO. However, guidance was doing that for this week 5 days ago and now we might see a storm suppressed to our south!  It’s probably BS but the physics on the model aren’t junk. It won’t show something that is technically a physical impossibility. It might go off on a tangent and depict a faulty pattern evolution due to biases or misrepresentation of a feature though.

UKMET is way different at 500mb and similar to Nov 1953 in concept.   The ridge/block over the great lakes hops over the ULL and joins with the ridge building offshore..   It impedes the storms progress,. but  isn't strong enough to force the coastal back into Upstate NY like 1953.

Do you just pick random storm dates?
