Make up my mind on which direction I'm going to be bent over by a grizzly man in a grinch hat....north, or south? This morning you had me 50 and raining on xmas, now its cold and dry with feet in DC...
Look at the sounding I posted from coolwx.com.
Notice how that greater than 0c bubble of air shows up in the mid levels at 00z Sunday? Snow before that point is legit, any after that is the model's delusion.
Taking a closer look at this...that warm layer in the mid levels moves in around 00z Sunday (7pm Saturday), at which point I have like 1-2" of snow....then the rest of the snow looks to come on the back end early Sunday AM, which is suspect to me.
Not to mention this is all assuming 10:1 ratios.
I think Kevin maybe right with the 1-3" up here.
Okay, if I said 15% chance, would it make you sleep better at night?
What I was trying to convey to the semantics Nazis is that I am confident that will not take place.
This is exactly my point....its not a perfect block, so yea....theoretically possible, but I feel pretty confident that we are not going to get a system to amplify west of us. I would stick with EPS over Euro OP right now.
More the OP....EPS is seasonably cold.
I guess 40ish and showers is possible, but I feel like if there is a major storm system, then N stream will be more involved and it will be colder, hence mainly snow.
Its because I wasn't sure what he meant....he could have just meant no snow between now and xmas, which is possible for many of us....but if he meant 50 and rainy SW gales....that is a no-go.
