Euro looks similar to CMC and is a miss! 

Which is exactly the reason why we need to wait until 0z Wednesday night before we take anything seriously. It’s going to be model mayhem at this range, to be expected. You have models showing a major snowstorm, a blizzard, a near miss and no storm at all. You aren’t going to get anything close to consensus right now

I don't mind it.  The enthusiasm and the good natured way he takes the criticism is better than a lot of us.

One quibble, and happy to be corrected by anyone on this:  It's "Wintry" not "Wintery" right?  Always bugs me when I see it written the latter way.

Love him or hate him, DT has a very good point here. This is a very interesting read with facts to back it up. This may be the reason why we are seeing so many completely different solutions and flip flopping run to run with multiple models. We have many weather balloon sites permanently down right now in important areas of the CONUS due to budget cuts. It definitely makes sense. Worth the read:

Actually CP …. WG’s efforts bring back TV show memories from my youth. Raul Dahl ‘Way Out’ and even the Outer Limits and they were fun to watch. Stay well, as always…..

Agree, possibly even waiting till 00z Thursday. Have to get more sampling in the next few model runs and the players on the field.

Very true, that's why you can't hate the guy.

This one is going to require fairly perfect timing of the western ridge building.  Pretty much any delay in that or any unforseen disturbance at this time flattening that ridge will kill this.  I think it'll be Thursday before we know much

Hmmm, sounds like this applies to any potential snow situation?
