I kind of find it funny how the Mid-Atlantic folks on this forum seem to like the upcoming cold pattern way more than the NYC forum.
It feels almost as if they expect another 2009-2010 snow apocalypse for them this month.
For December, just give me two 4-8" snowstorms that occurs with temps in the teens/lower 20s along with great snow pack retention (-5 or lower monthly temp departure) and I'm happy.
Hopefully, any relaxation in the pattern happens after the 25th.
The 12"+ storm can happen in January.
