West siders are basically guaranteed to get this one at this point. It's currently trending colder valley wide. As with any winter storm here, bust potential abounds, especially eastern valley areas. All modeling currently shows ice, snow or some combination of the two from Arkansas to SWVA. 

Let's reel it in!

Euro is coming in flatter as well. Means  northwestern areas don't get hit quite as hard. 

Normally I would be happy dancing with this Euro run at D3. This year I'm not as sold. I will say this one will have some nice cold in place.

I will not buy in.  I will not buy in.

I'm honestly kind of afraid to try to look much more in depth with this (like 850/ 700mb lows, vorts, etc..), with how many changes still happened at go time with the last system.
