Major Winter Storm possible for Jan 25-26
Folks,
Remember yesterday i said there is a lot of energy in the atmosphere and if ever conslidated and the jet stream branches phased, we could see a pretty big storm. The models now have a partial phase which yields a major but not historic snowstorm for the east coast for jan 25-26. The models had been hinting at this for a few days but never put it together till last night and todays noon runss. Now all the models arent on board yet but this is just a general warning for a possible major winter storm for Thursday-Friday it appears. IF we were to get a fully phasing of the jet stream branches(arctic branch,polar branch and southern branch), it would be a historical storm. If there is no phase, the storm would slide out to sea and we would be waving bye to it. For now...i am throwing the possibility of a major snowstorm. Obviously, will update this constantly. New England, as usual, looks to get the brunt of this if it were to occur with up to 2 feet in the ski areas.
As for tomorrow, i still expect to see 1-2 inches of snow primarly from DC south. I also expect some warmer air to work its way over the cold air and possibly change the snow to freezing rain on sunday night, so the rush hour commute on Monday morning could be tricky. After tomorrow's little event, all eyes will be on the POTENTIAL snowstorm later in the week. This is not a forecast yet...the timing has to be perfect and i want to see all the other models on board before we start buying milk and bread.
