A big storm is Definitely off the table now.

 

My hope would be to trend this towards a 2-4/3-6 deal but that’s a low probability currently 

I would take some nickels and dimes.  At least w'de get some snow while we have cold.  I'd sign up for 2-4 right now, forget the risk of the big storm.

I have to see the GFS bring it back here in 20 mins and then the 18z Euro follow suit, then both through 0z or I'm 100% out.  I thinking flakes here right now and that's fine, but one slight shift or run-on-its-own won't move me.

i’m not looking for a major storm. anything is better than nothing

GFS is a Little closer. I wonder why the precip shield is so tight.

That's honestly a great spot for a coastal low....the precip shield will be better modeled on the meso models... 

We're not far off here....people are acting like the storm is 300 miles off the coast at this point....

I think I heard before that if there is a high pressure to the north feeding in colder air the piece of shield will be expansive like 1996 however if there is a low to the north then the precip shield will not be as expansive. Perhaps I meant on this board can confirm or deny.

Precip shields are usually more expansive in el ninos because of the juicier sub tropical jet.

It also sometimes happens in la ninas that come after el ninos because there is a lag effect.

Gefs definitely stepped back from 12z 

Approaching 1/15 which is halfway point of met winter, definitely trending towards the fail column. Hey, it's in good company with 18-19, 19-20, 22-23, 23-24. Couldn't care less that there are lots of windy dry cold days. The T-storm complexes on New Years Eve and cutters will always show up when the weather turns warm again.

We might get the first below normal winter in 10 years with very little snow to show for it

 

Just bad timing in a overall good pattern. 

Dec was bad pna position 

January too much blocking

fast northern stream causing it to race ENE before it can fully develop?

Pretty much, the streams don't phase, the S stream gets strung out like silly putty and the whole mess gets booted out to sea by the kicker trough behind it. Like getting yanked off the stage with a cane when you choke.

That southern stream phase is literally like 6 hours off probably....a little quicker and we're back in business.  Not saying it will happen but it's still possible if you just believe
