Courtesy of Raysweather A potent low forms in Oklahoma Sunday. It will be in Kentucky Monday before transferring energy to a coastal low late Monday. Temperatures look tricky, but we look "just out of the money." Overrunning moisture may arrive in time to produce a period of mixed precipitation (light rain and snow) on Sunday afternoon. The heaviest precipitation comes Sunday night. Dynamic coolling at the beginning of the heaviest rain may cool the atmosphere to give us a mix of rain and snow, but temperatures will warm aloft producing just rain later Sunday night into early Monday. A front moves through Monday, and much colder air arrives. Precipitation changes to snow showers and flurries, ending Monday evening. Like so many before, this NW flow event will favor west over east for light accumulations of snow. Tuesday will be cold with more sun. But the coldest air of the season may accompany a secondary front arriving late Wednesday. Again a few snow showers or flurries may follow the front Wednesday night. Cold weather will be with us for the first two weeks of January, but currently, there's no real candidate for a significant snow.

Thoughts? I have concerns about the null phase in January

A Thanksgiving Day Prayer O God of Whose mercies there is no number, and of Whose goodness the treasure is infinite: we render thanks to Thy most gracious Majesty for the gifts Thou hast bestowed upon us, always beseeching Thy clemency; that as Thou grantest the petitions of them that ask Thee, Thou wilt prepare them for the greater rewards that still await them. Taken from the Collect of the Votive Mass of Thanksgiving

I noticed Raysweather has posted his winter snowfall predicitons. About half of normal.
