baltosquid Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago End result is pretty similar. Just won't budge south since 06z though. ENS will be intriguing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronTy Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago JB says it's discontinuous retrogression and 1985 is the analog. I have no idea if that's good or bad for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bncho Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Looking thru a few of the maps and saw the 18z NAM. Obviously it's the 84hr NAM (lol), but what it shows is what we need to happen. That HP is stronger and more south than what other models have such that if it were to be extrapolated I would guess that at the very, very least DC and points north would stay frozen the whole event.

IF the Nam is closer to correct with the cold air draining further south, that's enough to make a difference for some. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 546 line shifting 50 miles south could be the difference between sleet/zr/rain and sleet/snow in DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj2va Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago GFS would at least give the ski resorts opportunities next week to make snow with favorable upslope conditions too (blah blah OP run, I know). Good timing given Christmas and New Year crowds. Given where some thought we were heading for end of the month, it doesn't seem like we're going to be staring at days and days of warm temps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baltosquid Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Actually unsure of the GEFS, high may be moving out of the way too early. Probably gonna be close to the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the problem is the storm itself is mainly just slower so the high isn’t as ideally placed by the time it arrives. You can see the progression of the storm slowing down run to run on the GEFS member MSLP graphic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y'all get too goddamn granular on the differences between runs. 18z is a hold. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
