Euro not a bad run for interior SNE above I-84 corridor with regards to 12/25-26. Berks, Monads, and NNE would do well, especially in light of the lingering deformation, which could keep the snow going into Monday if this run were to verify verbatim. In addition, it looks like we get into a NW flow upslope regime on the backside with low level moisture and lake effect, which could give some bonus to the west facing areas that get robbed during the easterly flow portion of the event.

I also like a 1-3" or 2-4" deal for the Berks above 1K Friday morning. As such, I like the chances of a white Xmas in this neck of the woods.

I'll always focus on the first event (regardless of lighter) as it's much more likely to verify than 120 hours. A bird in the hand......

35.0/14

My Met buddy just sent me the equivalent of a Euro MOS breakdown for the next week - pretty interesting numbers of ORH:

Given the synoptics of the storm track et al, that marginal to less than 0.0 C 850 would DEFINITELY reflect a partial thickness supportive of snow in the ORH-FIT-CON axis. Not sure about the Coastal Plain, but since Ray lives there probably less...sure...

No reason to get excited about a storm that probably won't happen is my mantra.

ditto, but where i live that means you never get excited. :(

still i hope for some snow up there while im in town.

I think the good fortune of the Pats and B's are lessening the blow as well. A Pats 1-and-out and a B's rut along with a continued disaster January may leave me banning random people.

Agreed. I'm just hoping I'm able to get an inch or two through Saturday to bring my spirits up. You would think in all the years that I've endured awful December's, I would be fine...but this whole month has bummed me out.

Congrats to the interior hills and north, should be a fantastic period of winter weather, some snow and not bitter cold so outside activities will be a blast. Looking forward to the cold rain down this way, actually not even chilly on friday looks like mid to upper 40s here. No reason to bet against this pattern, 98% of the time its been wagons nw and warmer.

All good points, I think a lot of folks may end up feeling the same way, We kind of known that dec was going to be tough but if we lose Jan, There maybe know one left to ban after all the suicides..

This pattern has been beyond brutal, and if it becomes clear by thursday am that I will go the entire period without a flake through next monday, and things look warm going into the new year. Well, then I hope I torch down here like no other torch before, I would rather it be 58 and sunny in jan and feb then 47 with light rain its beyond useless.

We have been spoiled rotten, always a chance this was coming, I just hope those to my north can luck out and that the ski industry has a solid jan feb and march.

It looks so warm I've cancelled my mexican cruise in lieu of a cruise on boston harbor. Mucho savings.

Let's really hope we get a good shot friday.

I'm confident we'll be in the opposite pattern come summer. Dreary days one after the other of low 60's, clouds and fog.

Joe will chime in that it's actually 70 in Fairfield and that he can't keep up with his lawns.

Pete will swear that he had some mangled flakes.

Kevin will comment on how good it is for running and how good it is for putting down the Lesco.

Will won't visit the board at all.

Scott will chime in about all the VFR conditions and flight delays.

Tip will start a thread on some circulation that no one has ever heard of that might suggest a white Christmas in 2012.

Jerry will talk about how all the squirrels food is moldy from the damp conditions and is really at a loss for how the winter will shape up.

Phil will lament how the weather is hurting the Capes economy.

The rest of us will have been banned.

I agree, should be another GC white Christmas.
