I mean..here's the thing.   It's model spray and we're kinda in the middle at this point.   I'm not mad at that.

0z could have suppression from hell or conversely a Daniel Jones level confluence and we will be saying Congrats Carbondale.  But it doesn't instill much confidence when run to run jump of 80-100 miles takes place.  And the introduction of mixed enters the fray.  I ain't panicked but can't say I like this jump.  Is it a blip?  Gotta wait and see.  Pepperridge Farms remembers when its better to see jack zone in Columbia SC 5 days out.

Resulting to drugs to comfort yourself? Hmmm. 

Why are you so upset?  This could easily shift south.  Just have fun with it.  We are all friends here.  Oh and go Commanders!  That was for Randy.

If anyone is lucky enough to get 6-8 inches of snow with a solid coating of ice that would be incredible.  With the post storm cold and other storm chances there would be snow cover for the entire month of January. Who could complain about that?

^This. There's been one instance in wake of the 2016 blizzard (January 2019 from what I see on xm-ACIS) when Dulles exceeded Winter Storm Warning criteria. To get that event in any capacity would be a win for snow lovers (like me hah).

I’m not upset. I apologize if I came across that way. The frustration comes from Richmond constantly experiencing getting fringed. I hope you guys understand that. We are thirsty down here. Our climo used to be decent and recently it’s gone down hill. Didn’t mean to attack anyone or come across as bitter. The shift north on the euro isn’t good for us or NOVA because it seems as if it starts that movement it keeps going.

Post long, short, medium, or extra long.  Just post cause we need more smart people posting and less dumb(myself included in that group)

Keep it coming man. Not that other red taggers haven't done it since, but your discussion brought me back to 12/09 & 2/10 when CoastalWx came into the Mid Atlantic thread on Eastern before those storms and talked dirty about both impending blizzards.

Sir that was an excellent post (now I'm just an amateur at this, so take that for what you will, lol). Would love to hear your insights more! In a sea of emotional weenies one more knowledgeable voice wouldn't hurt :lol:

This extended period of cold and snow oppurtunities was discussed today by BAMM WX.  

Appears that Canada will reload later in the month with additional cross polar flow.

Would be nice if @NorthArlington101 (or any other person who paid for model runs) could post the freezing rain/sleet accumulation maps

I posted the sounding earlier… I think it’s really all sleet despite what this says, but who am I to question WxBell. It also dumps almost all of this in 3 hours. Don’t think it would accrete as much as help glaciate anything.

Oh wow, I was expecting maybe a tenth of an inch or something. Even if just half (or frankly a quarter) of that was legit freezing rain that could accrete it definitely could help in giving me an extra long winter break.

Post over at twitter seemed informative in the two ways this might go a little too far north for our liking @OSUmetstud mentioned he believed that the second way outlined in the post seems more likely than the first FWIW and in the second outcome it would most likely just help the coastal get going so we wouldn't necessarily lose out on snow from it.
