It looks like the key difference is the sharp cut off to the North. It definitely bumped North out West but didn't respond exactly the same further East

Looks better, but will be telling to see if we get 8-12 big dogs like on 0Z in ENS. If so I’m totally on board with the assumption 0Z / 12Z data is different… has to be

Euro 5 run trend. If no one in here saw the 0z last night we’d be excited about this

Something to focus on is that shift in LA and how far north that precip goes. Get some proper fgen and you can see a chance at that filling in much more ENEward. How's the 500 vort look?
 
I'll give the Tallahassee PBP for our big N. Florida audience (perhaps, me).
Big change on 12z Euro is a conversion from snow to a nasty ice storm with .5 inches plus for TLH and a large swath of N. Florida and a nice hunk of SE Ga.

In addition to hoping for the NW trend, I'd strongly advise my friends to my north be mentally prepared for the zone of ZR and IP to expand as and potentially eat into snow totals.
 
easy---we're in a good spot
Yea looks pretty good if we didn't see the 00z run. From what I gather, people here think that it won't be as steep of a cutoff as this run suggests and there's a possibility of more NW precipitation given that Euro understimates moisture? - a casual who joined yesterday and wants to learn this stuff!

That is a sharp cutoff line for the haves and have nots! This run did look better than earlier runs of the Euro though except for the 00z and I'm sure many would be happy with it. My residence is right on that aforementioned cutoff line so I'd feel good with about a fifty mile jog to the north and west just to be safe.
 
Ive seen, Nam,Canadian an Euro combo before chasing storms workout for the better. Tell you if the canadian and euro op position can just work itself 40 - 60 miles more NW or line up with the12z nam surface low in gulf. The 85 crowd will be golden.
You notice how well defined the surface low is in western GOM on nam,can,euro verse icon,ukmet,gfs. Thats the rubber match right there. Along with its placemebt track across GOM, next.
 
12z EC imo looks closer to the 12z NAM at 500mb when comparing the T+48hr-60hr range, compared to the GFS,UK, ICON and to some extent the CMC/RGEM. Just trying to better understand where we may be going over the next 24hrs as opposed to living and dying by each cycle and metaphysical accumulation maps.

If the NAM and euro get into agreement over next 24-36hrs we may have to live with that solution---whatever it is.

I think they are very close imo. I think Euro looked best of all at H5 over 12z runs. If canadian and espeacilly euro have the h5 nailed down how ns and ss are gonna interact, all you need is them to have the surface low placed where nam has it at 12z. If we ever needed a 50-60 mile trend 4 days out on approach, its this one. They always happen. But this is us , and we master in finding ways for stuff not to work out lol.
 
What I am noticing is that it's increasing INSIDE the original footprint of snow & the edges are getting tight as far as a cut off. Either way we will continue to see wobbles one way or the other. Just goes to show you how members are starting to zero in & someone is going to be on the wrong side punching air.

I was on the wrong side on January 3rd 2018 so I know how that feels.

What does it normally do? Increase?
Due to the orientation and strong winds driving SW to NE flow you see that NW quadant of system sorta like a mini jet stream draw up a strong moisture feed and spread over area. Alot of globals historically arent great on picking up this especially several days out... NAM/HRRR/RAP/RGEM are usually better at sniffing that out. I wouldn't say its a SURE thing but % wise it happens alot. If you think about it if your globals are showing you only getting .06 inch of rain but NAM and real time your seeing expanse of moderate showers to NW and you end up getting say .15 or .20 in expected 15 to 1 Ratios.... You go from 1 inch to 3-4 inches
