RGEM was the first to really pick up on the WAA snows in this one just as it was the first (and most consistent) in showing the north shore jackpot in Saturday's event. I've been pretty impressed with the RGEM performance this winter....lets see if it can be correct here as well. Doesn't mean no hiccups (I think that stripe of warning snowfall jusyt N of the merritt was prob a hiccup on 12z run, but otherwise it's been liking the general WAA enhancement after that initial thin band....and other model guidance has slowly caught on except for the stubborn Euro)

I thought it did absolutely fantastic the Jan 18-19th system it was very consistent with it from the start when most of the major models had it OTS or clipping the SE coast. 

I was praising it that storm calling it the RGEM storm when most where focusing on a win for the AIs, which was true but i think they overshadowed the RGEMs performance.

its been doing great overall this winter imo and vastly superior to other hi res guidance like the NAM

Far and away it’s been the best model this winter. It nailed that midweek snow event a few days prior to the big storm and several others in terms of placement

Despite the low track, I think what’s helping is some of the dynamics. Strong warm air advection over this cold dome can sometimes offset what typically is not a good track for Snow.

Why i feel eastern areas will do pretty good.

18z Euro is starting to blow up the WAA too, but it's doing it a little late. My guess is it will start doing it earlier and earlier with each cycle. It also had that little weenie band down in S CT like the RGEM had at 12z, but it wasn't nearly as wild with the qpf as that RGEM run.

Euro was the correct model with pushing the core of the last arctic shot to our west. 

Euro still seems to win on the synoptic features, but it's been struggling with smaller stuff and QPF placement on some of these events.

It was more a response to Wolfie’s 50th glue factory post since the start of the year.
