It was even stronger ... I believe it was 1050 mb ... although, 12 hr surface interval maps don't help my case ... definitely was 1046mb on Feb. 16th, 2003 at 12z ...

BTW, are you QueenCityWx at WWBB and Jeremy (TWC)?

Eta ran to warm at the surface and too cool at 850 to 750 mb....during the PDS.

GFS was to cool at 850.

Made the ETA look good at the surface..runs event warmer.

and it will be again for the coming event...though i dont think the high will be that strong.

PDS featured a strong high and weak coastal low...this should to a degree be a reverse...with a MUCH stronger coastal low and a weaker high (most likely in the 1030s)

NE Ohio, keep an eye out. NWS BUF seems to think something may happen.

I still have rain/snow/wind in the forecast for Sunday for my area. I may be pretty close to my prediction of the first snowfall of my area of December 17. We've had early December snowfalls before. It'll be interesting!!

At this point, I still believe this is primarily a rain event (at least for my area). But if the EC continues to show a colder/wintry solution for another 24 hours, and other models show some agreement with the EC, then I may have to jump on the sleigh. :)
