Would a W trend put the s island in play?

Honestly that would not surprise me, as much as I want to use an angry emoji to react

Vic tends to do well in these instances...especially if outflow winds develop and enhance precip rates.

Gotta love the arctic farts. Although they seemed pretty confident there wouldn’t be much wind as there isn’t a massive PG high or something.

Thankfully the Euro is showing the goods for once, instead of GFS, which has been all over the place.
I recall last year the GFS I did it and failed but predicted the trends the best. The euro was ok, the NAM was ok. The GEM always overdid it.

Not too much wind. We'll probably see some weak outflow on Thurs and Fri as gradients tighten a touch.
