Keep in mind a slight shift in the H5 short means a shift in the thermal ribbon which also means a shift in the precip bands. We'll keep you posted and yes this could still change some so stay tuned. just know it's going to be pretty messy around here the next 1 to 2 days.
Have a great day,
Jay

Jay,
Was just curious to your thoughts on the 18Z model runs? Everything playing out as you had thought? Any signs of a shift south of the colder air? I personally would love many many inches of snow, the ice storm potential tomorrow late really would be bad. I know your busy, but if you get a chance, tell me your thoughts..
