HRRR and RAP are actually quite impressive QPF wise for PHI.

 

2” and 1.7” respectively with some to come on RAP yet.

18z hrrr a little lower pressure, another slight tick W. Why am I bothering with models? Because this confirms any east jogs have stopped and we are status quo....no bust.

Glad the east bleed stopped, but I'd rather see a push back west instead of the status quo. It's looking more and more like I'll be in the dreaded subsidence zone

18z HRRR looks amazing

And is the HRRR showing and stall? If so, how long until it starts moving again? Thanks

No stall that I see just occlusion and the deform band anchoring
