CMC noticeably north again. Northern edge of the precip shield in Central VA vs NC last run

I think this would be a pretty good ending considering what we've got to work with

Nah. Gem completely crushes round 2. That trough in Canada is a monster as modeled. Unless things change, fugetaboutit.

Minus the Nams the 0z cycle has pretty much been exclusively positive for Friday. Lets hope the Euro does its job and holds

It seems to have a stronger storm and less positively tilted trough, but also trended way south with the confluence over eastern Canada/New England

0z GEFS is improved over 18z and 12z. It's a lot closer to the 18z EPS.

[bncho]

I'm not @SnowenOutThere but the Euro looks improved even over 12z as of hr 54

[bncho]

0z Euro is very good right now

[stormtracker]

Yeah, Euro is nice for Friday.  Looks like a 1-2 inch type deal on SV

[bncho]

we will make friends with the 0z Euro

Where the hell these long range so called weather gurus  snow weenies seeing snow for our area on facebook and other media sources and who are just trying to make a few advertising bucks playing up the polar vortex bs  but the current models are sure are NOT portraying anything like this right now for our area..  Every single snow chance has now dwindle to rain/mix event  and also an insignificant rain event at best for our area as the cold dry air is winning the battle.

The models have shown only one positive thing in the last two weeks for a major pattern change and a possible major snow event for us but when it will ever occur will just be plain luck.  If you old timers recognize the current major pattern shift on the last weeks runs which we have not seen in nearly 6-10 years is identified as the four corner lows which are developing and pushing into the Gulf of America. Then these lows are quickly re-energized with a ton of moisture and are setting up for a good Miller A type of storm event- rain or snow along the east coast.  The lows  south of New Orleans into Tampa are impressive on the model runs. This is the best look in model runs in a long time  as it  appears the GOA is opening back up for business, however these low pressure systems are also quickly becoming southern sliders too.  The cold dry air that does come through with a cold front is NOT retreating back up into Canada so quickly before the moisture reaches us. Would not be surprised if the Carolina's up to Washington DC sees more accumulating snow then us  this year. This pattern is slowly setting up for a lot nuisance mix storm events snow/sleet to rain for our area if this keeps up. A pure snow event will be hard to come by in the next few weeks

0z EPS is better than 18z EPS—it's probably the most aggressive it's been for this system.
