Jan 7-8: Euro likes it best but when looking at last 4 cycles, varying latitude and certainly too early for me to highlight-thread, given the less than reliable wintry modeling beyond 3 days.  

WPC 10z/31 ensemble probs less than 30% for 3" in our I84 area D7; and WPC ensemble probs for 1" NC to s NJ for this Sunday night are very low except NC Mountains.

I think we need something in the southern stream out of Texas to NC to give me some hope (850 low developing to our south).  Models can inspire me..maybe that will happen soon?

what makes you think there will even be a storm at 12Z on the Euro ?

 

This wave has been on the models for two plus days now. It will be there at 12z, though that doesn't mean it will show snow. Easy to be negative right now, I dont blame you, but this is probably the best threat if the year so far imo

Some of the guidance is showing that an Alaskan Ridge regime could develop for a time in coming weeks. That typically affords more opportunity for cold.

The PNA could also go positive late in the first week of January. 

So, January is looking better than December has been. It might not be severely cold or extremely snowy, but it should be colder and snowier than this December has been.

Goes to show how much luck plays a part in snowfall. Who would have thought in a moderate la Nina that some areas to the south will end up with above average snowfall to date while we wait for the first inch plus storm. That's usually an El nino issue.

That happens on occasion in La Ninas due to progressiveness of the pattern.  DCA/BWI in general do way worse than NYC in La Nina winters but they have had some decent snow events and they are almost always a product of either fast/progressive Pac flow or northern stream shunting

Snowman is going to flip when he reads this…everyone get ready for numerous tweets about how it won’t last long

The STJ may be getting a Nino-like boost with the current WWB near the dateline.

Here's a storm chance after that passes IMO

That EPS forecast is starting to look like something from late January 2015. When I made my comment about losing a favorable Atlantic the other day, it was based on the ridge being much further west in the old EPS forecast. That kind of blocking over Western North America could produce a 6”+ snowstorm in NYC even with a very +AO vortex.

Old run I commented on ridge further west

Yeah, that was a nice run this time. Verbatim has a low pressure off the coast on the 15th too. Can't ask for much more at this range.
