We continue to watch for the possibility of some light snow to move through the area on early Monday morning. Overnight, the NAM moved away from the idea of any snow falling, but the RGEM trended towards some light snow. What this really means is that we won’t know what will happen until tomorrow afternoon or evening. At this point, the most I’d expect are some “mood flakes” or a light dusting. We could just as easily see no snow…
Moving past Monday, we will be transitioning into a VERY active weather pattern in the long-range. Between now and the days after New Years there are at least 3 storms showing up on the models. This is in the long-range, so there’s not much more to say other than the fact that we will need to keep an eye out on these systems. They could end up missing our area by hundreds of miles or directly impacting us with a rain or snow storm. The windows to watch are: Friday the 28th (Likely Rain), New Years Eve or Day (Rain or Snow, but missing on some models), and somewhere in the January 3-6th time frame (Showing some snow, but way out there). Again, these are all general windows and potential storms that could amount to nothing, but at this time of the year any potential storm could quickly turn into a full-blown snowstorm.
