no to mention the pva, just thought no synoptics all vibes had a nice ring for a storm practically no surface reflection

With UK on board Euro should look pretty good.
Power of positivity, a bunch of snow starved weenies might just pull off the wishcaste of all times
Use 540 thickness line as a general ballpark, but you have to dig into the details to see what is going on thru the full atmosphere temperature-wise. But in addition, the rain and snow shown there is for precip that has occurred over the previous 6 hours it looks like, whereas the thickness lines are showing the thickness (temperature profile) at that timestamp (not over the previous 6 hours)
Worth noting though the GEFS still had a handful of to amped members
GFS OP looked a lot like it’s 18z run from yesterday. Only much better. 
This is easily the messiest looking setup at H5 I’ve ever tracked. Just awful

I like the way things are looking come on KING

The consistency in the Atlantic is crazy though. Imagine if that was jumping around too.

Jimmy, you think we can see colder runs?
I remember those 2 gulf lows,
Miller A's.
I couldn't remember the year but it seems like it was only a couple of days maybe 3 at the most that separated it!
Both were around 6 inches if memory serves.
That's not the only time that's happened in my life either.
Maybe wrong but seems as if this wasn't that uncommon in the 70's either!
I’m probably not the smartest guy to ask that but I would never bet on any run being colder than the last.
GEFS kinda meh, storm still there so there's that I suppose. Lot's to work out still

euro looks worse then 18z but better then 12z
There is a hand full of us that live in the Ga mountains and I am a bit more interested than normal. Even when the models have trended to almost nothing, we have been really close. So close, it didn't seem worth mentioning. I really think Jasper north is really close to seeing something out of this storm (other than rain, hopefully). I really think this works out for areas further south too, at least to the northern burbs. ATL south is the usual crap shoot too.
Looks like some FROPA snow showers too. This area rocks on NW flow events.
The only model to really hate us seems to be the CMC.

It wants to drop the early short wave piece into the baja low and raise the heights thru Missouri
A little colder at 850 maybe?

Stronger Atlantic Canada confluence but amped storm. Gonna be a CAD lights out. Interesting

Ice storm for CAD regions on this run

Tried to grab a 24 hour Kuchera to make it easy to see accumulations from just this storm and to pick up on the boundary layer issues on the southern end. Lotta ZR
Euro is diving the C Plains wave sharply into Oklahoma like the GFS, but it's not as positive tilt as the GFS (so it's warmer aloft out front)
Are you seeing the soundings?

Igry is the primary up at wolf laurel? Looks it on your map above. Guess this miller Bs

I’ll get the FRAM estimates on the ice shortly from pivotal
Headed the right direction temp wise, but the euro is playing a dangerous game strengthening confluence each run/driving higher heights around the lakes and driving colder air into CAD regions with a still amped storm. This is a trend with a more ZR/IP type of event 
Curious if some of that is sleet and the gui algorithm may be over playing the ZR?
most likely. i've never seen model output accurately reflect zr, it's always inflated
Some sleet for sure. It’s a mess as you can see. There’s gaps and patches all over the place

Cut ZR totals in half always
Not sure if this is the case here. 925s are pretty warm outside the foothills. It’s close. Soundings coming soon on pivotal
I am running an AI ensemble based on Pangu-Weather, initialized at 00z. This is highly experimental, but did very well during hurricane season. Seems to have a miller A/B hybrid, similar to GFS. So far am at 9 members out of 30, but it takes quite a while to get all of those done.
In testing, Pangu-Weather scores similarly to the operational ECMWF, but theoretically an ensemble approach should bring those scores up significantly.

Clear takeaways tonight for me are....1) we are trending toward digging the CPlains wave sharper south into Oklahoma, and 2) biggest question is does the C Plains diving trough get out ahead of the baja wave - I'd say that is a big question mark when you consider all of the latest op and ensemble runs

FRAM is still 0.5” of ice along the 85 corridor with 2-4” snow also
That’s a hell of a finger fgen band on the euro. Sheesh. No wonder it drops that amount of snow on the front end. Gotta like the trend though snow wise…. It’s been improving as much as we still don’t like its solution. This solution kinda gives me the vibes of the storm Ollie brung up a couple days ago back in mid Jan 2022

looking at the soundings this isn’t your usual ZR but it’s really sleet on the panels. It’s legit ZR.
