Another 2 shifts like that and ETN is in business 

Man if I had a dollar for every time I said that the past 2 weeks I’d be living high on the hog!

The Canadian wound the energy up over west Tennessee instead of East/Middle Tennessee and that was the response. 

I will say, this has a huge boom or bust potential. I’ll gladly swing at this one and potentially miss vs what he had with the ice etc

Weird how it pulled west from 12z but also went out to sea faster and ended up much worse for PA, NJ, and NY. I thought for sure it was going to crawl up the coast

GFS joined the others somewhat on the general placement of the 850 vort (circled in blue)...lift=somewhat of a check. DGZ near the ground=check (mountains aiding in the lift). 850 saturated and trapped in valley=check. Any minor change in that 850 vort placement will light fuse so to speak for the GFS (was really close). Now just hold those ingredients for next 4 days lol. The approach of the center of the lobe of cold air alot will also help enhance the lift by squeezing everything out.

Do you think there’s more room for that low pressure to hug the coast a little more or come just inland?

This is some good stuff here!

We saw the effect of trapped moisture with just enough lift last night and this morning..now place that DGZ near the surface and instead of mist you get nickles and dimes 

There are several things I like I about this setup for us. I don't think we need the perfect track to see a good snow with this. We just don't want it to be too far east.

I agree..vort is 50-100 miles east of where CMC has it most the eastern Valley loses the lift needed. The surface low off the coast only offers maybe some better moisture transport to the 850. Think we are 100% dependent on the 850...surface LP is just too far off (unless the whole setup can go negative tilt and phase together sooner)
