One big takeaway I see on the 18z NAM is the delay of the precipitation onset.  Just three runs ago at 7AM EST Saturday, precipitation was streaking into east TN, sw VA, and western NC.  This made sense to me from an overrunning perspective, usually faster return flow and further north than modeled.  Current run has precip barely making it into central Arkansas by 12z Saturday.  What's a 700 mile difference between friends?  lol

The 18z NAM is colder as well.  If you switch to run-2-run for temp changes...you can see the cold actually rotate down in front of the high and into the front side of the incoming storm.  Starts about hour 36.  You can see it warmup over the top of the storm as in rolls across the US.

I am glad to know that when I travel by air from the West Coast, it isn't just me who gets delayed.  Haha.  Funny...not funny!

The ICON was a little wild. I assume it's downsloping very hard and pushing warm air across the entire eastern valley and up against the Plateau. Because it doesn't make sense being on the NW side of a LP and seeing it push warm air into the area.

Where's the 850 LP located? Sorry at work
