Don’t be intimidated by our terrible luck lately. Dont be discouraged by endless model teasing. It’s coming.
you can be like Saquon, sprinting through the snow and slapping your head.
both the 6th and the 9th have been on the models for a long time and the progression seems clear. The 6th has some issues with warm air, but the 9th is decidedly colder. And these arent clippers. We are getting into actual storms. Here’s a little clip from the WPC:
Meanwhile farther east, precipitation is likely in associationwith a low pressure system located over the Great Lakes by earlyThursday. Rain is forecast across the Tennessee Valley tosouthern/central Appalachians, but rain totals are forecast todecrease by Thursday (compared to Wednesday) and likely stay belowthresholds for any excessive rainfall area on Day 4. Will continueto monitor though as instability may still be in place for somelocally heavy rain rates. Farther north, cold air in place willbring the potential for wintry weather to the Northeast.Probabilities for plowable snow/sleet are increasing across theAdirondacks into northern New England, while south of the greatestsnow amounts, a transition zone of sleet and/or freezing rain islikely perhaps around the northern Mid-Atlantic to southern NewYork/New England. By Friday-Saturday some light to moderate snow isforecast for the northern tier, but as a low pressure systemorganizes over the weekend, increasing precipitation will spread tothe east-central and eastern U.S. again. The current forecast hasthe greatest probabilities for impactful snow across much ofPennsylvania and New York into New England during the weekend.
