PREVIOUS NIGHT'S ACTIVITY HAS BEEN FARTHER NORTH THAN MODELS INDICATED. NCEP BITING ONTO A MORE SOUTHERLY SOLUTION TONIGHT AS SHOWN BY ETA/NGM. HOWEVER AVN HAS GENERALLY HAD THE BEST PRECIP PRESENTATION OF THE MODELS THE PAST FEW DAYS...ALTHOUGH TOO BROAD...BY KEEPING THE ACTIVITY FARTHER NORTH THAN THE OTHER MODELS.
