I didn't think the EURO looked that bad...its like 6-12 hours above freezing with a max temp in the mid-30s up here. That's pretty much what I expect to happen...luckily there's very little moisture in that warm sector on the models as far as QPF. Maybe a tenth of an inch after 2-4" snow/sleet. Good news was the EURO wanted to keep us as pretty much a snow event for the Day 7-8 wave. That's the one I think that's the real Grinch system. Would be sweet to avoid a full torching rainer there.

Hazey Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Think we best hope for the least damage on this weekend system. Think the flat solutions are running out of time. The 21-23 period has enough ensemble spread to keep me interested. Still iffy on the white Christmas. All about the timing in this roller coaster pattern.

Unless, of course, your focus is slightly different. If it is primarily the celebration of the birth of Christ and family gatherings are important to you, weather definitely takes a (very distant) backseat. But here's hoping for a nice surprise in the forecast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks more like something out of interior Antarctica They will probably enjoy the ozone more than the arctic wind chills. After today they're staying in the coop for a few days. Wish I could've swapped last December and this December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginx snewx Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Euro actually got colder at 850 with GYX at an amazing -31 which would blow away the current record -28.3 set in 76. ALB at -30 would break their -28.4 set in 1983 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weathafella Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 So Kevin, xmas is ruined? Since it's white less than half the time, I guess you have bad associations with the holiday? I always enjoy a white xmas. Nothing like emerging from the movies on the way to the Chinese restaurant in snow.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my opinion I think many agree. When I lived in LA, people were much happier if it was cold and rainy vs one year when we were on our way to a friends dinner and I had to go back into the house to change into a short sleeved shirt as it was 87 degrees.

WinterWolf Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Hey I'll take my 2-3 inches on Saturday morning into Mid day...it'll be the biggest snow of the season for my area. This cold shot seems like it's going to be wild too. Much more exciting than last December in every way. Models are crazy lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was definitely my strangest Christmas ever. First time I ever wore shorts and sat out on my parents' farmer's porch with coffee and basked in the sun. I'd take Xmas 02 over that, but give me sunny and 60F over grey and 40F. Anyways, wouldn't surprise me if we break even this weekend or even have a slight net gain up here. Prolonged the model wedge a bit longer and knock a few degrees off of guidance and we're looking at a brief period in the mid 30s up here in CAD land. Maybe we'll spike to 40F or something with the cold (warm?) frontal passage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
