White Christmas Miracle? December 23-24th

Im bringing my juju back for this one. Let’s talk about the shortwave traversing across the northern tier states and crossing the area on the 23rd. High pressure is overhead and we have a fresh antecedent airmass cold enough to support frozen precip. High pressure pushes south and we get that moist southerly return air just as system is moving in. Potential is there for advisory level snows for a broad area. Also seeing some potential for redevelopment or inverted trough as system pushes offshore.

6z moved to a more widespread look.

The EPS and GEFS are nothing like the ops. 
 

All kinds of red flags on the 6z euro with a 1007 mb low near PWM on the 6z EPS and weaker from the prior run.

This is a weak low surrounded by surface highs, with no opportunity to amplify with the mid level flow compressing out of southeast Canada.

Shrediola.

Perfect!  We should expect a good storm now. Appreciate the take. :snowing::thumbsup:

There’s a late blooming miller b type distribution of qpf showing up on the ensemble guidance. That’s likely how this evolves…
 

A local max at points west of CT river, and then points east in Maine with the weak/late redevelopment. 
 

Very weak system overall.

I know, again!!!

I know there are times when things are shitty and just not going the right way and it is what it is. But between Jbenedic and A few others, he always takes the model runs that show the worst outcome but never posts anything that shows better outcomes. It's not about wish casting, it's about being realistic and showing both ends of the spectrum.
