is there any accountability regarding the accuracy of these models .. Does anyone do post hoc analyses on their predictive validity ? Someone needs to investigate.. The models should be getting better with time … not worse !

This week’s weather pattern remains active across much of the country, with winter firmly holding on in several regions. A series of fast-moving clipper systems will track through the Great Lakes and into the Northeast, bringing multiple chances for...
Henry, Is this map your latest thoughts on the end of the week storm? It’s a big change from your earlier post and video today, especially for the area from eastern PA to southern New England.

This week’s weather will be shaped by a steady parade of clipper systems dropping out of Canada and sweeping through the Plains, Midwest, Great Lakes, and eventually the Northeast. The first clipper arrives Sunday, spreading snow across the Plains...

00Z GFS showing two major winter storms for the Mid-Atlantic in the next 10 days. Lets see how much of this changes on the 12 hour runs by the end of the upcoming weekend. Everyone should know by now any 6-hour run of any model is not to be trusted more than a couple of days from an event. Not enough new data on 6-hour runs to make a definitive…Read More

Future to be Hurricane Imelda may possibly bring needed remnant rain (2-3”+) Mon. Evening into Wed. AM for the parched central Shenandoah Valley of Va. Worried a bit for the mountains of Western NC. Decent model consensus at the moment. We’ll see how accurate.
Suburban Nashville (Spring Hill): 2.5” rain since Sunday….35-40 mph winds yesterday afternoon in a storm. 2-4” more on the way today and tomorrow. My grass is already growing exponentially to spite me, but great drought buster, nonetheless!
We need some substantial rains in VA’s Shenandoah valley and very soon. We will have wild fire problems again when leaves start shedding into tinder dry woodlands. We had some very light precip yesterday and maybe some scattered showers might appear mid next week. It’s critical.
The I-81 corridor from about Winchester up to Greencastle has been especially dry.

A Mandatory Evacuation has been issued for Hatteras Island as follows. All of Hatteras Island, including Rodanthe, Waves, Salvo, Avon, Buxton, Frisco, and Hatteras.
Maybe off the beaches but that might be a little too much to Evacuate.

Good call Henry! Here in the Cape Fear region (NC) we have something spinning up just off the eastern coastline. NE winds are getting brisk. NHC has a yellow ‘X’ with a 30% chance for development next week. Track is forecast to head off to the ENE and away from the mainland, but surf will be up at Wrightsville Beach.
