Good Sunday everyone. I don’t have a ton of time for this post and will have another update coming your way later today. I still wanted to get in here and give you some updated thoughts on the Christmas week of weather that’s ahead of us.
The breakdown…
– Highs on this Sunday will range from the low and mid 40s for most areas under a partly to mostly sunny sky.
– Clouds and temps increase on Monday as readings head closer to 50. A couple of showers may arrive by Monday night.
– Low pressure works from Texas into the Ohio Valley Tuesday into Wednesday and this will bring widespread rain back to the region. This rain may end as a touch of a mix by late Wednesday as temps fall. This same storm will create some major travel headaches over the next few days across the plains. Look at the snowfall outlook for some of those areas…
Road trip to Kansas? 
– Christmas weekend around here should still feature two systems impacting the region. One on Friday and another late Christmas Day into the following Day. Either can bring SOME snow to us. That certainly doesn’t mean they will… but the models continue to advertise the possibility. The GFS Ensembles likes the Christmas Day one…
Again… we shall see. It does give us something to track in the days leading up to the BIG day.
Another update will come your way later today, so check back. Have a great Sunday and take care.

Thanks, Chris. Looking forward to seeing how it all plays out. We may get the cold temps, anyway. Still haven’t given up hope just yet….;)
Have a great sunday, all.
If there is not any snow falling from the skies, I say forget the cold temperatures.

As much as I love snow, I will be happy if it snows, or if it doesn’t. That is not what matters.
What matters is if your family, your friends, and you are alive and well and together for another Christmas.
One thing about getting older…it sure opens your eyes to many things. This is my 57th Christmas!
Thank you, CB. I appreciate your updates and all your information. IMO, you are the best.

We will someday get our one or two or three big snows again…Honestly believe the climate is changing back to the 60s,70s,80s style patterns…Hopefully its this year…
Noticed Chris’s tweets! Anyone got any thoughts on how the euro has performed this far out? In other words, is this worth keeping the hope alive?
Agree. I say bring on the 80’s and open the pools.
yes the euro is defiantly worth considering. It is considered by some to be the best of the models and if it keeps this set up it will be interesting in the coming days.
Euro has been performing well this early winter season. But I would still not going to put all my eggs in one basket.
Until I see the nam & the gfs all on board , I am going to keep believing the glass is half empty.

What are the models doing now.
GFS says warmer..EURO says colder..At this point I don’t believe anything Goofy spits out and the Euro is more consistent…Very active pattern indeed if the Euro is correct…Worth keeping an eye on in the coming days..
Op. GFS continues to advertise a big storm coming out of the gulf and moving up the east coast on Christmas. The latest 12Z run is of particular interest, because it shows a stronger low than previous runs showed, and this low would be able to bring in colder air more quickly on the backside. The result would be a megastorm for the App. Mountains, and a significant snowfall for Kentucky counties east of I-75 on Christmas night. I’m sure Chris will be watching tonight’s runs closely.
