End of 18Z Euro op. (90) vs 12Z (96): backs things up a bit (precip, cold air push, H5 trough axis, etc). I wonder what later panels would have shown. The 18Z EPS will later give us hints of that
12Z Euro H5 at 96: note that the southern end of the H5 trough axis was over E AL on 12Z run but is back west near AL/MS border on the 18Z run for same time. That means that it is a bit warmer in the SE on the 18Z vs 12Z run ahead of the trough at 2M/850:
