12z GFS is a downgrade if your looking for a strong easterly, but it's not a bad run and still on the cold side.

And of course between now and then the strength of the Easterly will wax and wane

Also in true GFS fashion disappear only to appear later

Maybe the GFS is struggling again because of the government shutdown..

Reminds me of some of the initially 'marginal' set-ups from the late sixties: snow to sleet to snow to fizzle-out to patchy dense freezing fog...followed, couple of days' later, by a bone-chilling blast from the Continent...:cold:

A better prog perhaps..

As height align draws more from the NE- sector..with a bigger punch and quicker...to the deep cold...

We remain in very decent teritory!!

So basically, the downgrade is it's not "Day After Tomorrow" territory then.

 

I'm as confused as a man who's put in a barrel and told to go sit in the corner.

GEM also disappointing, will we be left with just KING GFS by the end of the day!

Caveat GEM has never really been with the program.

Man it's so confusing in here it's unbelievable ? Is this a downgrade/upgrade ????

With experience you will start to learn who to listen to and who to ignore on this forum. 

12z’s so far show a variation to the theme. We will keep getting these variations until we get the easterly into the 72/96hr time frame. We’re still on the right path.

The models tend to have an eastward bias as shown with the slider over the next couple of days. At one point it was sliding down the coast of Norway. 

Im sure the pattern for next week will be further west given known model bias.

Country wide snow event showing again on the GFS for Tuesday. How likely to happen do you all think this is??? ❄️☃️

I’d say fairly likely now that at least some will see a snow event Tues. There isn’t many models not backing it. Sweet spot looks to be NW especially with elevation but it will come down to 24hrs before and the high res models to decipher

Thats why US forecasters always pick it ahead of the others for nor’easters.

Interestingly The Met mentioned in their Media output that a system of the West Coast of the US which is due to become a Nor'easter and firing up the Jet is the cause of the uncertainty

The GFS fails with the first try and we will have to see another attempt around D10 to get sustained cold blocking.

We have a small window as after D7 we see a Pacific Ridge and this will tighten up the PV and send lower heights to the Atlantic. If we don't get a block by then, we will have to await the next turn!
