Because I know how much you guys like snow maps. I found this little gem over on the MA forum

I expect January to be awesome month for cold/snow lovers. A significant influence on the pattern as we progress in January is the effect the sudden stratospheric warming event (currently in the initial stages) will have on the jet stream, polar vortex, artic oscillation, blocking, etc. With that said here's some maps from tonight's 0z GFS, showing 10mb temps @ 48 hours ago, initialization, and 48 hours from now. The fuse has been lit fellas,

As we get into the potentially snowy pattern, let’s all be aware of the Rob Smith Snow Shield.

lol at the snow map, same areas get snow again and nada here
watching Wednesday for severe weather, it'll be 3 years to the date since there was a killer tornado 10 miles away

As ARCC mentioned There appears to be a threat window in the 12/30-1/3 timeframe. We will just have to see how it plays it

Dadgum, go big or go home.
GEFS looks just like the EPS/CFS in the long range. Can it really be happening?

The GEFS would somewhat agree...

Let's not forget that 1040 mb high dropping out of Canada. Only issue is the SER seems to make a visit, but the models don't show it lasting too long fortunately, so the pattern will likely boot it out by early Jan.

Question every storm we’ve had so far has been no less than an inch of rain most of the time we’ve had 2 inches. If the rain totals keep that trend and we get cold with one of them wouldn’t that translate to a monster snowstorm?

I think you answered your own question.
TWC's February temperature outlook.... yes please

Yeah, a beautiful +PNA/-NAO combo. All that’s really missing for near perfection is a -AO as it looks pretty neutral to me on the EPS/GEFS. But at least it isn’t a +AO and we’ve got the upcoming SSW that may take care of that. A borderline weak/moderate west based El Niño in the background, a
+PNA/-NAO, the strongest SSW in 10 years in about a week (hopefully gets us return of -AO), and the MJO progged to get to the favorable weak left side of the circle by mid Jan., the time of the coldest normals of the winter. What could be more promising than this? It still may not produce a big SE winter storm because they’re never easy to get but with the wx index slot machine at least appearing headed toward a 7-7-7-7-7, SE wx weenies at least have to like their chances. And at least the cold should dominate for quite awhile once it returns.
