I just checked Denver average temps and saw December had the coldest average highs . What drives that difference in less lag time with regard to sun angle ? Elevation ? Or do they respond very fast on the other end (improving sun angle in mid to late winter )
Peak Cold ? Climo now in Intra mountain west , why would they be over a month ahead of us (edit ) Denver did have coldest averages in December ,hmmm
EPS def has them in big red shadings over the medium term (esp N Rockies )
SPC HREF a bit more bullish at 0z thru 12z Monday and then a pounding Monday day for N greens

Nice juicy storm . Need it to get going early so folks to the SW can get some nice snow . Maybe all the way deep down into piedmont / foothills of NC .
May take a drive Sunday eve up north west .
Pretty sure that would have helped last year with the 33-34 snow that fell multiple times on CP that was modeled on clown maps to accumulate nicely . Our ratios were crap and most of the consistency was mashed taters from Nashua to KBED last year
12z nam develops low faster
looks like snows almost into D.C
really Hits Va, E Pa (except for I-95) and Hudson valley area pretty hard . NW Nj into Berks as well . Longitude storm
