it should be an arrestable offense to look at the NAM past 48 hours Wasn't it correct with the northward shift of this storm? Thought the NAM showed it first Friday night (after Hurricane Hunters) and the GFS / Euro followed. But generally speaking I agree with you, less than reliable outside of 36-48.

Of course though, the NAM led the pack this storm….”Ah, the NAM is out to lunch with its northern solution. NAM at 84 hours is comical. Don’t look at the NAM past 48 hours.” Well, where’s our Tuesday monster??? North and wildly juiced.

12z nam puts too much energy out front in the northern wave preventing the southern low from amplifying in time to generate a robust deformation zone.
Storm doesn’t come together until Indiana

Additionally, the hurricane hunter data makes it a little unfair because the other models didn’t have that for their previous runs they are being judged on.

Had a dusting of snow at 10:30 last night. The good thing about this event is the .76" of much needed rain. Would have preferred snow but if we can't get that then bring on the much needed rain.

Looking at Storm Prediction Center surface map on the meso analysis for the nation that is a big old low pressure system, was right over us hour or so ago. And looking at the RAP2, 4, and 6 hour model forecast from an hour ago it had a 4-Hour spread where it went from 990 down to 982. Now it doesn't get till 982 until the 6-hour mark and it's right over the borders of Indiana and Ohio. And I don't have the computer space or speed or knowledge to go back and look to see which model did the best but I think that would be neat to know for everybody. Sky really lightened up 7 miles west of DeSoto. Temperature a bone chilling 40°. This crap really blows.🤬

12z rgem has a great track.
Have to extrapolate a frame or 2, but looks like a 2-5 or 3-6 inches with potential periods of blizzard conditions.
A nice run, and actually could be 6+ inches for some parts of the area.

it should be an arrestable offense to look at the NAM past 48 hours I saw that. Remember the good ol' days when we'd talk about getting dry-slotted. It's nice to see that this mode of getting screwed is still on the table these days.

GFS threads the needle and hits the CWA hard. Would be a major winter storm if that run verified.

The GFS shows a janky 850 mb low. It doesn't really get fully closed off until it's up there near Michigan.

For Friday: GEM shows a 987 Memphis low and we get rain. Classic stuff. I would bet on a quicker transition on the NW side of the low given recent trends, dynamics, and upper level temps. I think we are still in play here. Also, most models are shifting south in general. And don't forget the blue norther Sunday...that is looking very steady.
