That Christmas Eve forecast would be only the third time I've ever seen a White Chirstmas if it were to verify. In 2010 it started snowing Christmas night in Raleigh and when the storm ended the next day there was an accumulation of around seven inches. In 1989 there was the blizzard that hit the North Carolina coast and in Smithfield where I spent Chritsmas there was probably around two inches of snow that day.

You can pretty much always count on this around here on sunny warm winter days

Yep, same for clear windless nights. This is why I don’t take the models temp forecasts on days like this seriously… if the models forecast 65-66 on a day like this , you’ll prolly hit 70.

Yep. Thats one of the big points early in synoptic with Lackmann, on a day like this in WxChallenge he’s almost always warmer than modeling or even NWS

Dibs on "No way it can cut with a [1052] high up there"!

Things are definitely looking more favorable close to Christmas. The end of the gfs wasn’t awful looking either.

That's a pretty good storm signal on that map. No idea if the surface is showing anything, but that is very nice upper air signal.
