Gfs is not the model I'd be trusting with this kind of complicated setup.  Hopefully the cmc and Euro are just too north tho. Need the northern piece to run ahead provide some confluence, then have another northern stream piece drop in the backside and pump the storm. That or just northern stream runs ahead provides confluence and the southern stream just amps itself up.

Yep - went ahead and made its own "home" for that one. 

I can totally handle winter if it's only one week per month of cold and snow - and the rest is warm. 

Haven't had a clipper here in a couple winters it seems, or at least feels like we haven't.

Well another episode of how the models turn. 
 

I do not think this will be figured out till Saturday and not everyone will be happy. My hopes are not but I am usually on the border, 

 

latest AFD from LWX. 
 

Cloud cover and rainfall, accompanying a low pressure system, on
Monday will allow for cooler temperatures. Numbers will still be
slightly above normal for February as we may see a southeast to
southerly component to the wind ahead of the low. Rainfall appears
to be likely with amounts probably in the one half to one inch
range. On the back side of the departing low pressure system late
Monday through Monday night, rain could mix with or change over to a
brief period of snow, mainly across the Mason-Dixon region and in
the western mountains. For now, it is only a slight chance of snow
mixing in as it will depend on the exact track of the low, exit
speed of the low, and how much cold air can filter into the region
behind the low.

Tuesday is expected to be cooler than recent days with a gusty
breeze as cold advection continues, despite any precipitation coming
to an end from west to east. Highs near average on Tuesday.

High pressure will continue to build in from the west Tuesday and
into Wednesday. The European model wants to send a piece of mid-
level energy our way on Wednesday that could bring us a brief rain
or snow shower in places, but other models want to bring us that
energy late next week.

The players in this storm, according to the 6z "chong" GFS, are here currently.

4 days later, this is where they end up.  Number 3 has really got on its horse the last few GFS runs, almost catching the main trof.  2 and 4 haven't provided the dig until a bit too late in the run.  Expect further "adjustments" as small changes have big effects with stream interactions.   Bringing the north branch at the right time, place,  and depth to provide cold is tricky.

This is gonna bounce like wild until we get consensus on whether the northern stream outruns for a confluence setup or we phase. Anyones guess. Cmc and euro showing more of a phase makes me wanna lean that direction though.

No I think it will be dodge ball. If you catch the ball you gain an extra player.

Yum, proves we have a lot of options yet… prefer red sauce over white btw. 

Spags is not served with "sauce".

Your options are either garlic butter or tomato GRAVY - both are served on the side.

You must "dress" your own pasta where I come from.

Ok, checking in for my daily dose of late AM disappointment. Lets gooo!

lol.. Hopefully the 12z model runs can boost our spirits. The GFS is the only one that keeps me in the game, but I think someone up your way on north will jackpot on this.
