Maybe this is the turnaround in the trend we needed...we just strapped Mark Sanchez to the bench and brought in Brady, gone from our own 4 to the 35. We'll see if we can get into FG range tomorrow or if this was just a tease.

Can you tell if Leesburg gets snow. It looks close

Looks like things are progressing as we first speculated they might that the coastal portion of southern New England into the I-95 corridor in NJ etc. are not looking good with this one. Glad to see the interior / mountains getting the goods.

But remember, it is meteorologically impossible for this to go inland so maybe it will shift east! :rolleyes:

What's up with euro warm rain on dec 30 lol

The Aleutian Low is still in the process of pumping up the ridge, but not before a few last waves make it through. The progressive flow does argue against the wrapped up solution but the ridge axis is west enough that it also makes sense. The ideas of a miller b seem reasonable now but not a threat for you and me.

I would just take what you can get over the next 7 days and wait for a better chance in January.

Are we the only two people on the forum with a 2 letter username? lol

That is scrotum crushing cold on the ECMWF day 9-10. There is also a hint of split flow trying to develop at the end but that's arguable.

We'll get the cold, clipper type of snows with something like that but the big storm will wait until that PV gets out of the way.

BTV starting to honk...we'll see.

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...

AS OF 438 AM EST SUNDAY...POTENTIAL REMAINS HIGH FOR A

SIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL ACROSS THE NORTH COUNTRY WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND

THURSDAY.

A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE OVER THE REGION TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY

WITH FAIR AND DRY WEATHER EXPECTED.

A LOW PRESSURE AREA OVER THE TENNESSEE VALLEY EARLY WEDNESDAY WILL

MOVE NORTHEAST INTO THE EASTERN OHIO VALLEY EARLY WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

ECMWF MODEL DEVELOPS A SECONDARY LOW ALONG THE MID ATLANTIC COAST

EARLY WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THEN MOVES THIS LOW TO THE NEW JERSEY

COAST BY THURSDAY MORNING...AND THEN TO CAPE COD BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON.

THE GFS MODEL DOES NOT DEVELOP A SECONDARY LOW AND TAKES ITS LOW

FROM SOUTHWEST PENNSYLVANIA EARLY WEDNESDAY NIGHT TO AROUND ALBANY

NEW YORK BY EARLY THURSDAY AFTERNOON...AND THEN TO SOUTHWEST MAINE

BY THURSDAY EVENING. THE GFS MODEL WOULD BRING WARMER AIR ALOFT

INTO THE REGION WHICH WOULD LIKELY RESULT IN SOME MIXED

PRECIPITATION DURING THE DAY ON THURSDAY. THE ECMWF MODEL HAS THE

SECONDARY LOW TRACKING ALONG THE COAST THROUGH THE PERIOD. PREFER

THE ECMWF MODEL SOLUTION...AS THE COASTAL TRACK FOLLOWS MORE

CLOSELY TO THE CLIMATOLOGICALLY FAVORED TRACK FOR COASTAL

SECONDARY LOWS. THE ECMWF MODEL WOULD KEEP IT COLD ENOUGH FOR IT

TO BE A MAINLY ALL SNOW EVENT FROM WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH

THURSDAY. SNOW WILL WIND DOWN TO SNOW SHOWERS THURSDAY NIGHT AS

THE LOW MOVES NORTHEAST INTO THE GULF OF MAINE THURSDAY NIGHT. SOME

RESIDUAL UPSLOPE SNOW SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE INTO FRIDAY.

At this time yesterday, I was in love with the GFS. I now feel spurned. lol

Seriously, though--given where we are in time, I think Sam's exhortation to sit back and watch is the wise approach. This will very likley shift around the next couple days before settling on an outcome that might be better (or indeed worse) than what's there now.

That said, I like the thoughts/discussion between the mets about the mechanisms and synoptics of why/how this could remain wintry or rainy. Thanks for that--educational. (and let's all hope for the EC--:) ).
