AI GFS wasn’t terrible, and funnily enough it’s been one of the more consistent models. Seems to be fairly good at picking up long range pattern changes.

beavis1729 Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Does anyone have access to ensembles for the potential storm, either the individual members or the mean/median? The op runs are all over the place, even more so than usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm talking snow totals over the next 10-15 days, regardless of the individual storm threats. I saw some ensemble info in the TN sub-forum a few days ago, showing some big dogs for our area. Of course, that's good and bad...bad because the ensemble mean can be skewed by a couple of outliers. 6z GEFS from 3/7: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RemoteSenses Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Sunday system has me at least still checking the models. GFS is a slam dunk here but the Euro is like 400 miles north lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d love for the Euro to be correct but it’s probably a bit too far north as it seems to be an outlier atm.

Sure, we have the post-storm cold blast, but it’s literally for only a couple days. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
