Euro still showing 1-2” for Sunday and 2-4/3-5 for Wednesday. 
Not the big storm we want, but better than what we’ve had. 

Although it can at times create an unfavorable CAD setup, we tend to do best with a sprawling HP over S. Quebec.

On paper these SW flow events should favor us here in W. PA, but they rarely do.

We have to take these models and storms one at a time. It’s looking more and more like Sunday may be a surprise with a couple inches of wet snow. 
just my opinion.

Usually with a neutral setup we tend to do ok.( non CAD )

Elevation will probably play into the totals though.

Euro is a winner with the Wednesday storm.

Nice to see the Euro and GFS agreeing this far out.

Even the CMC wants to transfer to the coast, just too late for us.

Atleast we are possibly back to tracking. We need something at this point even if it's an advisory level event.

GFS vs Euro/CMC.

GFS hasn't budged for a day now, so for now will have to give it the advantage.

Euro still likes next Monday morning.

Is anybody else having to log in more often lately ?

Who is ready to get hurt

 

 

Lol, with no HP in place, this would be the upset of the decade. 

There’s almost a slight easterly component to the precip, interesting. 

After one of the best fall seasons we’ve had in awhile, it’s been an unusual winter so far. 
Had a bad feeling about all of our cold air reserves being emptied at one time. 
Hopefully we luck into something sooner than later.

The 18z GFS provides hope for late next week with Warning level front end snow.

Maybe we are still in the game …?

 

 

Cad Ftw. 

12Z GFS is more interesting, hopefully something to track.

Lol middle of January with a decent storm track and gfs is showing .75 inches of rain. Yikes

Models show the cold coming back next week. Hopefully it will bring in some storm potentials to break this boring stretch.

Yeah, definitely need to firm this ground up at least.

Hopefully one of these vorts produce something.

GFS has a nice looking storm around the 6th.  Will change, but something to watch.

Seems the big three have all tried to produce something during that time. 
Would like to see more of a consensus at least by Sun/Mon. 

For us it probably was 1993.

Wish we got more but i guess an inch is better than nothing. Not our usual 60 degree Christmases.

Yeah, last Christmas it was actually muggy outside.

Starting to crank a bit, light covering so far

Radar not looking overly impressive to my eye, returns look to be weakening in Ohio. Front looks to be right on the border so we'll see if it fills in as it gets closer.

The change over was kinda meh.

We’ll see how it plays out though. 

Cams around Cincinnati showing snow packed roads. 
Just have to wait and see at this point. 
Setting alarm early to catch the change over. 

Impressive camera shots around Cincinnati. 
Roads snow packed. 

Congrats, CAD ftw.

Unfortunately, these vorts tend to not dig into the TN Valley as much as we would like. 

Too bad, because the phasing with that coastal energy would have been epic.

Extended HRRR has VERY minimal snow on the backside of the front. The precip dries out before dropping more than a dusting

Some of these maps make it look like we live in mid town Manhattan with the UHI effect. LOL 

It’s can be a factor with very marginal events, but not so much in this situation.
