I think it's possible, but CAD may not be enough to help us at the 850mb level. If anything, CAD could cause us to never rise above freezing at the surface preventing us from turning to rain.

@Conway7305, at hour 84, even at 925mb, it's close to or slightly above freezing. This suggests that in later frames, the cold is continuing to get scoured out closer to the surface, so we will probably eventually flip. But, hard to really say, it's close.

Wow, may have to go to main thread and witness the classic meltdown, Ji posts a plenty.  However, this seems to be following our script to a T, bullseye 7 days out, trend north leaving us with a slurpee forecast, then teaser tick south only to jackpot them again in the end.

But with what has been posted, insert The Godfather III gif here of pulling me back in.

Is it a teaser? Seems to me like the GFS is largely on its own from what little I’ve looked around, but I also haven’t been following along super closely. Don’t wanna get my hopes dashed.

I can’t say for sure, not nearly as

versed as Midlo and RIC at reading models but yeah, taking the same “don’t go breaking me heart” approach

CAD seems to be showing up more and more. Let's see if 12z GFS Follows

Slower storm seems to make a difference. 6z euro looks slower and slightly weaker low. Less warm air advection and coming in overnight instead of the afternoon. GFS has stuff in by 21z and the low is stronger.

Anyone who knows anything about the winter weather here, knows that it really takes almost the perfect storm to avoid any mixing in this area & not to be dry slotted at some point. (Even the good storms here get some mixing precipitation for a period of time) how long each will last is  key..
 

We definitely need even more of a southern trend & the cold air to stay in place to avoid the major mixing here  … Meaning more snow & then sleet vs Less rain, freezing rain, sleet&snow…

I be more worried about the dreaded “sleet storm”here for hrs & hrs here at the moment but it’s still too early to jump on any one conclusion ..
