Interesting personal observation: I'm heading home in the early am after Xmas.. about 1 hour northwest of Baltimore, near Pa. Today was interesting in that though temps were near 32...ice accruedl quickly. Dropped to just 30F now and it's an absolute skating rink. In Charlotte, I find it rare to get this type of return with 30-32F. (Yes, some of it happened late afternoon)

I forget every year that one can get sick of cookies and other rich foods. I just want a bowl of grits for the next bit.

You ain't lying. We gonna score multiple in January and you'd think we're gonna set high temp records judging by some posts.

I mean we have set records here but like I'm pretty optimistic about January. Just to see storm systems and colder air is an improvement over this month haha. There hasn't even been any precip here in over 3 weeks. Anything is better than that!

People gotta quit looking at individual runs and look at the ensembles and the pattern. You'll drive yourself crazy otherwise. Believe me I've been there

Man NYC is getting a horrific shaft with this storm. Warm nosed during the heaviest moisture now getting dry slotted. Sheesh.

Can’t say we didn’t warn them. Warm air advection driven systems always trend north last minute. Also the speed of the system was so fast and was always modeled to be fast, I think it’s safe to call it a juiced up clipper. However, some places got crushed and are still getting crushed with good totals, heckuva 700 mb fronto band.

For sure. I diss on the NAM, but it can sniff out a warm nose inside 24 hours well. NWS NYC had no business still calling for over 7-8 inches just 8-12 hours ago. It was obvious that was not gonna happen.

But it’s filling in nicely with showery echos back in N PA/S NY with that area aimed toward NYC. I don’t know if that will amount to that much, but that wasn’t on the radar earlier.
 
Lol this is kind of sad

7:00 am Storm Total Snow Update for Central Park, NY: 4.3" - This is the first snow event Central Park has observed snowfall greater than 4" since the winter storm January 28-29, 2022 when 8.3" was observed.

We've had two storms bigger than that since... Florida has in one shot lol
 
Not exactly pertinent to our area or the time at hand, but if you pause the video below at 1:02 (or simply note the thumbnail), you get one of the biggest swings and misses in the history of 30-Day Temperature Outlooks. This forecast ran for the NYC area on 12/24/1993. God, I miss this era...

I agree. Those were the best days and I didn't even realize it at the time until it was over.

I see folks all the time talk about wasting cold. The fact is, I’d rather waste the cold than have a fifty degree ground temp and struggle to stick with then immediately melt.

Some of yall don’t think things through

And it’s not as if we have an allotted number of cold days per winter.
 
This storm will cut up towards the GL and only the western sections of the SE will see anything IMO. The mountains of NC/SC/Ga will do okay but east of there, looks unlikely
