Thats 13.8" for those that struggle to convert to inches :shock:
The GFS operational pretty much stands alone as being that wet.

Through day 10, the Euro and GFS ensemble means are remarkably close. Euro operational is drier to the south but not that different here.

First time on that trail for me. Probably would not have worn sandals if I had known how much of a scramble it was.

GFS has really pulled back on the precip totals for tomorrow’s rainfall. Thankfully, it’s just the GFS. Euro still holding strong.
