you call a cutoff low progressive?

I'm speaking for the east coast only and solely about troughing/ridging. Recently no trough or ridge has held on for a considerable amount of time. Aside from the cut-off, the bumps and dips in the jet stream have moved into and out of the east coast region at a decent clip. The cut-off low is the only thing that has stubbornly sat in its place with nothing to move it. Hopefully, that will change after this cool spell if another one doesnt form (fingers crossed).

Dude...that's why it's called a cutoff - generally other systems are more progressive...that's just how it works.

STRONG COLD ADVECTION AND LIFT MAY CAUSE ENOUGH COLD AIR

ALOFT FOR A FEW SNOW SHOWERS TO MIX IN ACROSS THE RIDGE TOPS OF THE

ALLEGHENY AND POTOMAC HIGHLANDS OVERNIGHT FRIDAY...GENERALLY FOR

ELEVATIONS ABOVE 3KFT. NO ACCUMULATION IS EXPECTED.

Come on, everybody know that orographic snows in the MD allegheny highlands isn't actually REAL snow. It's just a pigment of your amalgamation.

It's going to be nippy for the game on Saturday in Morgantown.

...with low level moisture arriving about 6 to 12 hours

after frontal passage...the airmass should become cold enough to see

the flakes fly both Friday night and Saturday night...above roughly

3500ft. 850mb temperatures will get down below -2c by Saturday

evening.

In general...going below the guidance numbers for the highs on

Saturday...especially in the northeast mountains. Give a high near

40f for Snowshoe...and that may end up being a little generous.
