Trend is clear as day on the NAM. The angle of moisture fetch off the gulf has improved dramatically. I think the NW portion of that precip shield is likely under-modeled as well. Between the terrain and the sloped arctic front aiding in lift, it won’t take a ton of moisture to squeeze something out further north and west. Still too early to feel confident in it, but who woulda thought this time last night that we’d still be in the game?

Still not impressed for my area. Models consistently bust for the amount of precip we are supposed to get. Add that with the temps, and we might see some white rain. I do think central/south GA do well though.

He’s good at what he does and his reasoning makes sense.  At least we had something to follow and there are more chances coming up.

He can be annoyingly arrogant so it would be fun to see him get egg on his face, but I don't think it will be this time.  As he has pointed out (over and over and over) with no established high the cold air is chasing moisture and in the history of NWP that has never worked out.

NAM was a bit flatter that run. The question will be whether that becomes a trend or just a blip, and it’s gonna windshield wiper back later today.

Also colder (then 6z anyway) a bit of a double edged sword, which is why there isn't much upside with this one

That's not what he was saying at the start, but he'll never say he changed his mind.
