Is the low still riding up the coast?

Even though there's some attenuation and beam filling wrt precipitation further offshore, against the RAP analysis (as also confirmed by satellite) this mass of convection along the SC/GA coast is further west than forecast (even at 0 hours for the rap)... The pressures are also lower to the west below 1008 hPa in the analysis closer to the Gulf stream east of Jacksonville while the RAP maintained 1010 hPa at best and held the lowest MSLP over the northern Bahamas...

The people saying this is 155 pages of nothing are stupid. This is going to be a HISTORIC storm for areas in the southeast. Also in these 155 pages, ALOT of people gained a lot of knowledge. Tons of information in here for future reference! A once in 50 year storm, and y’all want to call it a waste, SMDH

Oh I'm here. I know this trick. I've seen the HRRRRRR do this a lot. It ticks back and gives everyone some false hope. Then, the next run is hard right. :) If it snows just a little, I'll consider it a win at this point. At least it's consolidating the low a bit more. Would be nice to see that trend continue.

I also thought that was out of line, per the ton of info in this thread. Not to mention, for the folks who are getting wintry weather in rare places.

Whoever said it is likely on the outside looking in.
 
Me too. Going to have to go back and study this one. It just appears there are too many dynamics at play here at the sub-synoptic scale level that didn't work out for us. At this point, I'm doubtful of any accumulation above a dusting west of I-95. Maybe I can be 2-2 in the wrong category, I'd take it at this point to just see some dang snow!
Ya this one is a wtf system for sure
 
New HRRRRR still trying. Weenie!
