With the rising NAO and PNA beginning of February we may have our best shot at something. May not work out but that is usually our best signal for a snowstorm.
Somewhat resembles EURO weeklies for same period.

Question. Do the EPS tellies have a rising NAO as well? Perhaps the reason the GFS gets the late week storm closer to us is due to the fact that it has a rising NAO. I am assuming the EPS keeps the NAO negative hence keeping the storm south.
I think the snowstorm of Jan 2012 is a great example if I am not mistaken. In a sea of warmth we got a moderate to heavy snow even from a "trailing wave" which followed a cutter I believe.
