Miller Type-B situation unfolding on Sunday. Sfc low over the Mid-
Mississippi Valley heads ever so slowly east while weakening as tracks
across the Ohio Valley and then dissipates over western PA. While
this occurs, a secondary low is forecast to develop along the Mid-
Atlantic coast. For our region, there still remains a lots of
uncertainty at this point. While it appears that a good portion of
the region will remain precipitation free Sunday, some moisture may
make inroads into Western NY (Southern Tier).  Elsewhere, the stout
sfc ridge to our north will likely keep a grip on the rest of the
region. Still lots of time for things to change. Will have to keep a
close eye on this system. It could bring accumulating snows or not
much at all as we head into next week.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Again still lots of uncertainty during this time period. Strong area
of Canadian sfc high pressure will "likely" still have a firm grip
on the region. Depending on which wins the position battle will then
determine our chances for some snow.

It`s still anticipated that the parent sfc low will dissipate over
western PA on Monday. As of the 28/12Z guidance, nearly all models
are still in decent agreement that a rapidly intensifying nor`easter
will develop just off the Mid-Atlantic coast at the start of the work
week, then moves in a northeasterly direction. The question will
then be how much the Canadian sfc high holds on to its crushing grip
across the region. If it holds strong, it`s "likely" that the region
will feel no more than a glancing blow for parts of the forecast
area. 28/12Z ECMWF is currently advertising this solution.
Furthermore, to hammer home the uncertainty there is a large spread
in potential snowfall in the ensembles. With that said, have a mix
of chance to low end likely POPs for Western NY for Sunday night
through Monday. Low confidence at this point. Stay tuned as things
could change moving forward through the first half of the work week.
Storm system then pulls away by midweek and then sfc high pressure
takes over for late Wednesday through Thursday.

Well at least next week's storm has crashed and burned early.  And if it does come back over the weekend it'll be an unexpected surprise without having to sweat the details for the next few days.

You know I feel like a lot of storms in the middle of these forecasts lose their way and then find their way back to the original idea. Time will tell if this is correct

hopefully the icon holds. it is all we have left. 

Kind of like seeing Gronk rumbling towards the end zone at full speed with only your third string safety back there at the goal line to attempt the game saving tackle

Sure there's a chance.....

You can see our main player for tonight on the visible satellite as it spins its way down through Western Quebec.  Quite the chunk of cold air and vorticity.  Look quick before the sun sets!

That is like out of the movie the day after tomorrow. Thing of beauty. Warm lake is going to love that.

When was the last time we had a negatively tilted trough over the northeast. That seems to be what we need to transport moisture off the Atlantic over central New York. I can remember storms with a negatively tilted trough watching bands of snow moving from southeast to northwest with intense snowfall rates.  The storm of January 4,1994 dropped 10 inches in 2 hours in Syracuse at midday. Business let their employees out at the height of the storm resulting in may people being trapped on highways. 

Wow! That would have been quite the thing to see! I'm sure the roads were a fiasco. I would love for us to get some of those negatively tilted troughs.

That next one is definitely cutting and it's going to bring in a glorious arctic SW flow behind it. :weenie:

JUST, NO. We are finally building a snowpack. Take your stupid SW flow and shove it. :P :) :P  Joking...mostly. :P

True. The December storm I believe looked very similar to this several days ahead. I just hope that IF we can actually get the "NW trend" to work for us, that more us can benefit than Binghamton this time.

I'll take half of that storm in a heartbeat and wouldn't complain if there isn't a flake the rest of the winter.
