The Global Forecast System (GFS) Ensembles (image below courtesy Weatherbell.com) are a little more bullish with snowfall tonight then they were last night, however for our area the GFS phases the storm too far to our north preventing a significant snowfall across our region.
The current European and Canadian operational models are much more bullish with a coastal storm rapidly deepening over the NC/VA border on Monday afternoon before phasing with the upper-level energy over the midwest. The result would be a medium-high impact storm for our region (6 to 12″ of snow).
Canadian:
European:
More updates this weekend as hopefully we begin to see some consensus developing between the various forecast models. By consensus, I am hoping the GFS comes into line with the European and Canadian models. The snow here in the Mid-Atlantic melts way too soon to really enjoy winter for more than a few days.
