"Because there is always a 100% chance of weather!"
Not saying i will not be watching radars today and tonight to see if the models missed the actual forecast, but it appears safe to say that after some rain today and starting tonight, a period of light snow looks likely tomorrow morning that will not accumulate to much, and only really accumulate on grassy…
I am growing more confident now that I am not going to really know much until we get the storm to form. There are chances that 2 low pressure systems could form and which one becomes the primary could mean the difference in snow and how much. Last night's late runs really put us in…

Could have a HUGE snow on us Monday into Tuesday! We will wait and see, but WOW for the new models!
The likelihood of a huge and historic system is fading with every model run. We may see some snow here Monday night into Tuesday, but even that is questionable. It has been an amazing change in the last 36 hours as the models went from a Historic Blizzard to barely a storm on the east…
12 z guidance for nearly all models has a strong low of coast of nc/va, bombing out to nearly 989 mb as its going up coast, could mean big snows for mid atl depending on track. so stay tuned, remember things can change, but with only 3 days till event models are coming to a…

While I still suspect the biggest winter weather event of the season, the snow impact is far less now. Shifting the zones one notch north for everyone puts most of Northern Virginia in a 2 to 4 inch threat. Maryland 3-5 inches, and the heavier snows up northward! That being said, we may not see…
Tuesday into Wednesday will likely hold the first big storm of the winter. Scenario: The arctic front will stay south far enough to allow warm moist air to override the colder air and cause snow to break out Tuesday. The moist air will be pumped north by a system that will be pushing the precipitation…

A situation is setting up that is challenging and potentially exciting, especially the Northern Half of Virginia, up into DC and Maryland, IF you like Snow! The Arctic front which will be south of Virginia and slowly climbing northward next week, could have an overrunning (moist air thrown up over teh cold air) event that…

Synthetically speaking, we do not have the elements for a big snow storm. The Systems that are coming through are not slowing and amplifying as the flow in the atmosphere is too fast. So we have a wave that is developing off the coast tomorrow night, but it has moved well east of the area!…
looking like mondays snow chances are now nothing but maybe some flurries or possible snow showers, nearly all of the models are takeing the storm too far off-shore to really mke any kind of an imopact. *** luke ***
