06Z GFS looks pretty slick out this way Tuesday morning. 0.75” FZRA.  A lot of it with temps 29-30°

 

Dont sleep on that little burst tomorrow night out this way.

100% correct. 

Possible, but the 12-2 system has the deck stacked against it. 

No 50-50 low,  no Lakes to New England H.P. as a cold air source.

And of course, our long time drought pattern that no one fully understands is again an aggravating factor.  The GFS dropped the QPF from 1.48" for Augusta at 06  11-27 to .60" at 06  11-28.  I don't have enough fingers to count how many times this has happened during the past 4 months.   

No need to look at a whole bunch of other factors.  With that high severely misplaced, we are in trouble

Euro is a solid hit for new crew

Euro appears to be advisory level snow west of US 15?

Can we please reel this in? Maybe by tomorrow I’ll start to believe it a little. Maybe..

For posterity - snows on the front and backend.

It’s soooo close for DC. Still wicked - 28 and ice. 10” if you don’t go too far NW. All I care about for now is more to track for the next 10 days.

We can reel this down to us. Plenty of time to manifest it.

If the WB 12Z Euro comes anywhere near verifying, the metro area can have the next two storms;

Ya I’d take that euro run and be happy if that was it for winter up here haha.

We went from a sunny forecast here today (which I figured would be wrong since Frederick is cloudy at least 60% of the time) to scattered flurries.  I trust Tuesday's forecast like I trust DC sports.

Back to the storm for next week.  Latest EURO EPS and AI ensemble.

That eastward "severely misplaced" translating HP as you say, would not be misplaced with a 50/50 LP.

For decades the 50/50 low has been a gold standard for a major winter storm because it will lock the cold air in by blocking eastward translation of western New England HP.

Looks like my days posting in this forum will be over if that comes close to verifying.

12z Euro Ens has a favorable h5 look with hints of some energy taking the southern route. Prior to that it looks NS dominant but for this window maybe we can get a wave ejecting from the SW to slide underneath.
