This is our usual thread for storm threats in the longer range that are not ready for its own thread.

There appears to be a system for next Monday/Tuesday that will move along the south and then up the apps/east coast. 12z Euro has precip the farthest north/west to bring some snow to IN/OH.

I hear you and raise you this hilarious CMC output from last night:

Obviously this was just some laughable model fluff (if only it weren't), but simply out of curiosity, has such a widespread event ever occurred in the history of this country?

The ICON agrees, though it takes the system further west

Don't have a precip map handy, but I'm almost certain GHD1 covered even more (in the CONUS vs Canada I mean).

I remember quite a few storms that covered a ton of ground. Not those ridiculous totals, but good storms.

WOW. Over the last few days the CFS, by far the warmest seasonal model and one with a warm bias, has almost completely ditched its warm rest of November and December idea. I have never seen it change so suddenly and drastically. 

It defaults to warm.

The Euro has been advertising a fairly potent system around the 26th for a few runs now.  A long ways out but something to watch.  There is a lead system on the 24th that could play havoc with how the main system evolves.  May cause the models fits since the two waves are close enough that their interaction could muddle things.  The wave around the 26th looks like it could be quite potent if everything times out just right.

I was watching this on last night's 00z run. Hopefully it doesn't pass us as a weak shortwave and then phase into another east coast bomb.:huh:

12z Euro has a nice storm on the 26th-28th.

Maybe the models are beginning to sniff out a big dog around the end of the month when the pattern flips to full-fledged winter as guidance is depicts the ice box opening up.

starting to wonder if calls of an above average December, (temp-wise), 

....are gonna be in trouble. :yikes:  

Mild signals keep falling apart as we progress into late November with no long term signs of any moderation setting in.  An early winter was not in the cards for a lot of the forecasts I've read.    The fasten seat belt lights and the oxygen masks just dropped on LC flight 2018-19

In Nino years, December is the month that has the highest chance of being problematic.  There have been good Decembers in Ninos though.  So if this December ends up cold/snowy (talking more regionwide and not some narrow area that gets a good storm) then I'd say buckle up.

So general concensus backed up with euro weeklies is a pretty cold and stormy 2 to 3 week period followed by a relaxation, (just in time for xmas of course :rolleyes:)....then we see how long and what happens next.

Things definitely look primed for an early season event or 2 for the sub before any relaxation occurs.
