Has the looks of something that will fizzle out in the next frame.

Dang Stevo you have this figured out now

I’m just not smart enough to know why it fizzles out. Someone please tell me why.

If I had to take a guess that big low along the Maine and Canada border is just sitting there and it kinda squashes things to the south. Move that about 200-300 miles NE and let that 1041 high move in tandem with that shortwave and you have a really good Southern Slider overrunning set up.

Dry subcloud layer, lack of forcing, no moisture flux

I use to get excited seeing a 1032 HP over PA on the shortest days of the year, with light qpf approaching like 12z euro showing for Christmas eve. Trying to get a limb glazer.

I'm dreaming of a wet Christmas. Oh well we're still way behind on rainfall it's not the worst thing ever

Enjoy your 67 and sunny weather.

Week of Christmas looking warm and rainy. Hopefully we can get a more consolidated piece of energy and push it all thru at once rather than a whole week of clouds

Nice thump of snow this afternoon in NW NC. Boone, ski slope areas etc.

 

[SWVAwxfan]

Had a pretty good snow squall lay a quick coating here.

 

[NCSNOW]

Poor mans version of future radar at 8:22pm tonight. Someone sign up for flood light watch and alert the rest of us.

 

[Disco_Lemonade]

Got some sprinkles cookin

 

[NCSNOW]

Its more than a sprinkle. Melting flake into a sprinkle i can confirm. Think my face had 4 hits in 60 seconds out with dog. So few between, floodlight cant give me a register

 

[SWVAwxfan]

Just got a special weather statement for a line of snow and 40 mph winds fixing to move through

 

[NCSNOW]

Power is out spots in my county. Wind is ripping.
Iceland volcano finally erupted

 

[SD]

Lowest temp in the calendar year imby is 20.3 I think tonight can beat it.

The snow aspect of this storm certainly overperformed in this area. Roads were very slick and icy this am. Numerous calls for wrecks. Montgomery county closed all schools today. And we didn't even have a winter weather advisory.

That was a big win in your area. It's usually the other way around these days when you get a winter weather advisory and get close to nada. I miss those days when you wouldn't be under a advisory and still get a dusting to a 1/2 at times like you got last night.
