Snow Ice Threat Increasing For Northeast

'Hard to believe but yes the pattern is changing and yes there is the threat for snow ice in the interior northeast next Monday night into Tuesday. A couple of things that have developed today with regards to the new model runs. As we said yesterday the key to all this would be the big high and whether it would hold or move out. Today’s GFS is attempting to hold the high just enough that even the coast from Central New Jersey Northeastward could see some snow or sleet at the start with a longer period of frozen or freezing precipitation. I think that some areas of interior New York State especially north and west of route 84 might see a prolonged period of snow & ice before any changeover takes place. It is particularly interesting that we are going from all time highs to a more wintry pattern over a short few days but it is going to happen. Honestly it would be a nice kick in the rear end if we can somehow put down a snowfall accumulation coming out of all time record highs and the warmest December ever by a mile.'>>>

After two years with so little snow that many ski resorts never opened, there is now 7 feet at most of the Cascade passes and lots more in the forecast.

Here in New England, I just put on my summer pjs and turned on the fan!

I will be relieved to see cold weather and some snow. It's kind of eerie having such warm weather.
