Classic PNW gloom today! Would venture to guess it was our lowest solar radiation of the season thus far.

It annoys me because the GFS has been most consistent

18z EPS joged south

It's crazy how quickly things can change on the models. A couple days ago it was starting to look like late January might fail for the PNW. Now it looks like a very good possibly it will work out after all. Still a ways to go but the odds of an arctic blast have significantly increased. At the very least, we have something legit to track other than silly GFS and CFS runs.

@Grizzcoat I have seen so many low nudge further north than progged over all my years I cant count them all. Particularly the more intense the low is. Ive seen it up and down the east coast states and many times here in Iowa. One system Ottumwa was the sweet spot for days on models right until final day. But Waterloo got the most and Ottumwa almost nothing. Ran into the old channel 8 met few days later he said "yea a 30 mile error". I said "no sir you mean a 100 mile error"!!! I almost always expect a 30 or 40 miles deviation on a deep low.
