Pretty much, a little bit south and 36 km away. I've often watched the precipitation on radar as it crosses the water and sometimes it increases, other times it decreases, always interesting to watch.

Do you think the consistency of the GFS lately is any cause for thinking it could verify and that other models may hop on board in the coming days?

I'm cautious but it's probably the only thing going in our favour right now. That, along with the heavily negative PNA and a neutral to slightly negative EPO. :clap:

Those crazy solutions definitely won't. However... I do think we'll eventually see some cold and snow sometime in the ~Jan 10 - Feb 10 timeframe. Given how putrid this month has been over the past few years, it was bound to happen at some point and it's (historically) the perfect time of year to maximize cold.
