The low just rockets way too far inland in miller b style, and the TPV is too slow to anchor itself in CAD position like grit says. This has been the trend the last few days on the EPS.
The euro has burned me a few times this year, hard to take its solutions as serious as years past. Next week is our real chance, I don't think the Thursday or Friday systems will be cold enough except for the NC/VA border areas. Who wants multiple days of 35 and rain?
Delayed, delayed, delayed. The longer the cold air hangs out elsewhere, the more "stale" it becomes. I highly doubt we get any below zero readings and possibly no single digits except for high mountains.
It is better to expect no snow and not be under a warning than be under multiple warnings for 3 to 6 or 4 to 8 inches of snow and not get more than 1 or 2 or less.
Looking back at my seasonal snow totals, I think we were a little spoiled between 2014-2018. We had a big snow (6+) pretty much every year across most of the forum those years. And multiple small events most of those years too. I shouldn't expect a big snow every year here maybe not even every 2 or 3 if I go by history.
