I'd say the trend is pretty clear here.

And the EPS shifts north. Maybe I still have winter break brain, but is this for this weekend, or early next week? This weekend is not much of anything as of now. Chris’s comment is referring to the Tuesday storm next week

I'd say the trend is pretty clear here. I disagree. Looks like 2 camps emerging. Ukmet and GGEM are south. Gfs and euro are north.

Lots of time for this to settle..I believe we are still noisy at the moment..honestly I know the Euro is King but..it seems last couple of winters it's deciphering of storms has waffled in the 240-144 range even up to 120..I realize that's expected but I think it's been more than I remember..or I'm just getting old and forgetful..probably the latter..oh well my two cents!! Leaning on OH 🇨🇦.

19z NBM remains largely unchanged from 13z
Maybe a slight jog north

90% chance it’s all rain. History tells us this.

Looking there the 18z NAM, wanting to drop 4-5 inches up 44 into Jeff Co and just west of me in Waterloo on Friday pm, Sat am. If only..lol. Chris said don't give up on this...so just maybe it's reappearing...

Remind us novices again…where are we looking for the 850 placement to ideally be? Particularly STL and south to not be on the rain side of things. Around Carbondale is ideal for the Metro. Speak for yourself. I prefer more Olive Branch.

Still lots of time for this thing to waffle. I recall a few storms that changed course the last 12-24 hours. I still remember Christmas Eve 2012 ( ) when Chris came in and said well I guess kids in Evansville are about to the Christmas surprise of a lifetime after we were pegged for 9-15. It happens.

Seriously, though, that's where forecasting snow here is mind-numbing. The distance between Marissa and Brighton is "roughly" the 90 miles needed for the GYB method for the 850mb, right?

A blend of the globals still puts us in a good spot...but we don't want to see any further N trend with the GFS/EURO for sure. It looks to me like they lift the storm a bit too quickly...especially the EC, which jumps it way north after it crosses the RRV.

The wrench in the gears is that this storm is currently being modeled as a nearly vertically stacked cyclone, so the mid-level features need to be a bit further south than typical GYB...especially the 500mb low. The dry slot isn't far removed from the h85/700 low track.

My thinking is that if Temperatures will be too warm and it will rain with little if any snow. Both systems. Then you won't be mad at the world:)

18z GEFS is a tick south of the 12 suite
That puts it roughly in line with the EPS of the low going through SE MO

Hi-Res NAM drops an inch or so Friday night for we southern folk. May need it because I think we’ll be singing in the rain Tuesday.

I need to pay a little more attention to the Saturday night shortwave. It has been something that has been hinted at as a weak precipitation producer... but most of the attention has been on it's predecessor and the early week storm. But there might just be a little something to that Saturday night shortwave too.
