00z NAM is very close here... snow to mixed but we live for another model run up here in the northern tier. This will likely trend further NW though I'm afraid. As Will said, it has all the looks of a classic doesn't-stop-trending-NW till 12 hrs prior to storm.

Watch this eventually go over ART.

Euro was a torch.

Other than some icing, this event looks pretty ugly...nothing really to stop it trending NW...high is not a good location, and we have some phase potential to rip this well west. Still have to watch for some pseudo-CAD, but overall the synoptics are quite lousy for significant snow...even for most of NNE. The hope is that the southern stream stays mostly out of it like the GFS shows and that would keep it colder...esp for NNE. But its kind of on its own right now.

HPC and GYX seem to think the cold air/high holds on long enough

I'd hedge more ice there than snow...the mid-levels have been trending warmer. The GFS is an outlier in how it evolved the storm. Its the only model that doesn't phase the southern stream. There should still be some snow at the beginning for NNE, but it doesn't look like a significant snow.
