Right now, IMHO...it appears the H-pressure is too far to the West, which would prevent much CAD. Also, the system may pass to far to the South like the last one, and be more of a rain maker for the Carolina's.

Yeah, however, one thing to note is this ... and it's the GFS, which is the WORST MODEL for picking up CAD, and it's already picking up on AG ... this reflects in the changes with the MRF guidance numbers and even forecasts ZR as far south as Columbia, SC and Florence, SC for a time period as thickness schemes plummet ... that's saying something, especially from this far out ...
The EURO tonight has some issues BUT is plausible the rex-block signature with a large Central Canada ridge with the s/w undercutting it to the south (which by the other models would become quite a moisture laden storm ...), which, in turn, keeps the trough positively-tilted and with no chance of full phasing, until it's too late ... another thing, the models are picking up on, which has not been discussed tonight, is the fact that there's another northern stream s/w that falls in behind it across the Carolinas, and could induce additional phasing, and/or pull the system up the coast ...
