Thoughts are you should wait a few days before even considering something 8 days out a possibility.

Man that first week torch in December really went away.  Snow on the doorstep at 165 of the GFS.

SER shifting SE. Modeling has certainly trended to colder outcomes in the East and the SE. .  

 

Seems awfully cold for a torch?

Got a model run spitting this out at Day 7 and mostly crickets? We've matured.

Yeah why bother? Lol Although I don't care how far out in lala land it is...clown maps like this still make me mad just because of the mere image of the fringeline nobody can explain

A well timed trailing wave with cold coming in behind the initial low is a pretty common and uncomplicated way to get  some snow here. The advertised pattern is conducive.

I would say we've much less matured rather than being hurt time and time again by rug pull after rug pulls. especially last season in february

Yea this is a big test of winter expectations and everyone is carrying almost a decade of scar tissue with them

Can’t believe it’s only a week out! Definitely our first realistic window with pattern support (and ofc the cmc is delayed)

Day 3 is when I’ll start to believe something has a chance. Anything beyond that is meh

While the “trend colder from mid-range” tendency is fun if it continues, the “trend drier from mid-range” needs to be remembered as well.

This could get interesting, enough energy rounding the base, more than the GFS, possibly we’ll see….

Lots of good confluence in the northeast too

Ends up too warm for close D.C. metro but some snow elsewhere. Works at this range

As depicted would be enough to open up Ski season at least, hopefully some fun times ahead
