  1. Somewhat negative trends overnight, one way that we can fail is to get caught between the storm on the 6th and 9th, with the first too far north and the second suppressed. This is a risk in any pattern, the difference this time is the range of outcomes where it could snow at least a few inches is pretty wide. At this range we have to take the ensembles as a whole from a few models cycles and not jump to conclusions one way or the other.
  2. That's like the southern equivalent of buying a snowblower. Cold rain incoming!!
  3. I'd prefer that to 6-10" that melts the next day, any time.
  4. https://x.com/GMengel/status/1873081159061782683 Really does a good job of showing the two threat windows, the second being the more potent (9th/10th)
  5. Eric Webb has been the Grinch when it comes to shooting down any optimism the past few years. He is now beating the drum
  6. I actually think we've seen some really positive trends overnight in this regard. It was looking like a cutter, or New England special was inevitable in that time frame with the cold air relaxing before the arctic blast arrived behind the storm. Yesterday it was looking like chances were higher for something around the 9th/10th, but now we may get something sooner.
  7. It's like one long continuous window of opportunity, which is always good, because we will fail more than win, so the more opportunities the better
  8. A much better signal for around the 6-8th of January on the 6z gefs
  9. The AO is forecast to be -2 vs-1 in early Dec. NAO about the same at -.5. PNA +.5 vs +1 in Dec. So about the same, although AO is probably the biggest driver for snow and -2 is substantial. It would be the most negative AO since 2022. The last time a -2 AO or more was coupled with + PNA and -NAO was January 2021 which was near normal temps and snowfall
  10. Probably too dry West of the triangle. An odd setup, not sure I buy it, I suspect precip will be too suppressed
  11. A helpful diagram I pulled from Twitter. Pacific jet is keeping any Canadian air from migrating down (surprised surprise)
