I’m driving to Atlantic City 110% if this pans out!

It’s won’t pan out there. We’re still 4-5 days out. You don’t want to be in the bullseye at this range

yup, that ridge is able to bubble up between the upper level features, creating almost a mini Omega-block look

Causes our ULL to slow down and tilt rather than continue to swing positively towards the coast

nice move from the AIFS, now lets see if the OP sees the same thing

Outlier right now

Not really. We have the ICON showing a nuisance event at best, the UKMET gives nobody anything more than flurries, and the NAM was going to end up pretty weak too. The models are split close to 50/50 right now on the outcome.

Gefs was with the euro but it shifted way further west.

Icon is by far the worst global and the NAM at 84 or extrapolating past 84 should be weighted 0%. I'd say that regardless it's a terrible model in the short term let alone 60 or 84hrs out. 

The Euro/UK being OTS is the real concern, not the NAM/Icon powerhouse.

Model Mayhem continues.  So, at 0Z, the Euro/UK/ICON all have the surface low move ENE from Cape Hatteras with very robust precip fields (with snow on the NW side of those fields) that are just too far SE to do much for people who live on land, while the GFS/CMC/AIFS/Weathernext2 have surface lows that move ENE from about Norfolk, 100+ miles N or Hatteras, with robust precip fields which are close enough to land to put down a lot of snow at the coast and lesser amounts as one goes inland. Which camp do I believe? No idea, but I will say that the fact that the 0Z Euro ensemble mean is well NW of the Op Euro tells me that the Op Euro has a decent chance of being a bit of a SE outlier and that it should move NW and show more snow.  If that were the case, that would tip the balance towards a snowier solution, IMO, since right now, the two best models (Euro-AIFS and Euro-Op) are in different camps.

The GFS op is definitely an outlier with the ridiculous amount of snow it’s showing in southern NJ, Delmarva, Maryland. No other model shows anything even remotely close

It's an outlier within that group, but it belongs in that group relative to the other 3, as it's much closer to the CMC/AIFS on track and having at least significant snowfall, especially at the coast.

What exactly does Weathernext2 show and where do you see it?
