January 25-26 Storm Potential

It happens sometimes with overrunning events. 2011 we started a SWFE below zero. Full fledged coastals are definitely rare.

Valentines Day 2007 up here...I remember a bunch of us BTV area folks were posting about the coldest synoptic snow we'd ever seen. The first foot of that was under 10F, and the first 6" were low single digits. Second foot fell in the mid teens.

12z ECM is a torch at Day 9-10 with 8C 850s moving into the Great Lakes and Mid-Atlantic. 

 

Would be a very short-lived cold spell if that occurred. Hope the reload happens fast. 

I wouldn't worry too much Nate. The cold air will likely hang on especially if we have some snow cover to boot.

Here's a leap, ...but interesting:  maybe the plaguing fast flow is a result of a cold polar cycle taking place amid a background Global Warming; such that the mean gradient between the 60th and 30th parallels is anomalously large.  

 

Tip, would the corollary to your theory mean a growing imbalance between the cold to the north and warm to the south?  An imbalance that begs to be corrected via a superstorm...perhaps when the wavelengths begin to shorten?

Thats the re-load occurring, the GFS has been onto that idea for days, some sort of big cutter around that Day 10 perioid then the ridge re-builds out west and it gets cold again, there will be some sort of big Midwest event though around the 3oth, alot of models have shown that.

Sux that each one of these reoads essentailly wipes out all snow around greater Albany. It's just that kind of winter it seems.

 

I'm reduced to maybe 60% minor snowcover on fields here now with still probably 4-5 inches in the woods. Gonna go snow shoeing now on my wooded trails, but just passable.

 

Flurries or minor squall seems to have started here.

Euro ensemble looks pretty similar to the OP, but as you might expect in a SWFE at D5, a shade colder/south of the OP. OP has the low over ERI at 120h while ens mean has it over OH/PA/WV tristate area.

 

 

And just SE of Montauk, LI at 132h.
