That's pretty far out in the future, but a "cutter" isn't necessarily awful for some parts of the region.  It just isn't an all snow solution.  Looks to be a pretty decent cold airmass in place before, so we could be looking at the day after Christmas scenario.  Of course, its too far out to really discuss.

Big storm with well-modeled high-lattitude blocking...  this should be in the Euro's wheehouse then, no?  Little bit concerned why it apparently showed no hint of said event (i haven't looked at the model, just commenting on others' commentary).

 

it has the hint of something but it's too far offshore.

Thanks for that.

 

zwyts should be more of a cheerleader for these runs. His February forecast is on the line as is the CWG forecast. It needs to snow in February

 

Whether it snows or not, the fact that he cited the potential for Feb with his back-loaded winter call and nailed the warmer-than-average Dec - Jan periods (if not the magnitude) for a seasonal outlook was damn impressive in my book.

the gfs gives new england like 400 inches of snow this run

I don't care if New England gets 1000 inches, if I can get get 10" from here on out and at least make 50% of climo I would be happy.  Not with the winter of course, but realistically with what is possible for the ending.  Besides, I wouldn't mind an end of the year ski weekend up to Vermont to salvage something of this pathetic season in 2 weeks.

This was a GREAT run of the GFS, maybe the best we have had since 2010.  Possible small event right in front of us, then 3 distinct chances in the long range, one showing all snow and a couple after that where not much would need to change to at least have some front end snow to ice.  Hug this and run with it, at least until Dr No kills it in a few minutes.
