So much here…We almost get a snowstorm 48 hours after this. On aigfs we do. And it’s the long range gfs. 

some of our best storms have been a couple of days after a significant warm-up.

Well, so much for winter.

Sudden stratospheric warming coincides with above average temp periods for us so it makes sense. Statistically there is about a 70% chance we get normal or below normal temps in a few weeks (if the SSW happens) so hang in there

EPS/AIFS is honking for VA beach/NC again for the pt.2 of the midweek thing. Rich get richer

I mean if our clipper falls apart even more it’s conceivable that energy helps make that storm come north. Probably too late for you but Cvill might get into the fringe

I'll say it till I turn blue, you want to be in the bullseye the first decent event(s) because it often tells you where anomalous snowfall will be for the season. Sure enough, the places that got hit several times in December keep on stacking it up.
