GFS forecast trendsNotes:GFS forecast model trends (courtesy of WFO CTP) are shown on this slide. The oldest forecast, made at 18z on the 6th is shown in the lower right and the analysis from 18z on the 8th is shown at the upper right. The GFS appeared to be very consistent with its solution during the 48 hours prior to the storm. The only clear trend was for a slight "sharpening" of the 500 mb trough off the mid-Atlantic coast.
