Good Thursday to one and all. We continue to track arctic air into the country and this blast will arrive in the bluegrass state over the weekend. This has been covered extensively over the past several days and things appear to be on track. So… let’s focus a little bit on Thanksgiving week.
The one thing for sure about next week is the amount of cold. Temps will average MUCH colder than normal and could be one of the colder late November periods in a long, long time. What about the potential for wintry weather? That’s the question for us to really tackle in the coming days as we have a potent storm system taking shape.
The models waffle a bit here or there on timing and track issues and that will continue into the weekend. For now… I like what the European Model is doing…
The evolution of that storm system will be determined by how much of a marriage we get between the deep trough digging in and the energy creeping along the south…
That’s asking a lot of the models to determine this far out, but that’s the world we live in.
The same run of the European Model tries to put down a touch of snow around here from Tuesday into early Wednesday…
A quick check of the calendar shows that it is still November. Tracking so much cold and winter systems doesn’t happen too often around here at this point in the season. 😉
I will update things later. Have a great day and take care.
Perhaps CB is hedging his bets this winter due to last winter results. Better to low ball the outlook- just in case 🙂 Kind of like when businesses present business plans to their CFO- Better to estimate low and come in higher!
Weatherman sandbagging 😉
predicting an inch of snow for the whole season might be sticking your neck out.
You figured me out! 🙂
by the way does anybody know when wait till next week season officially begins.
For some it will begin after thanksgiving
I sure hope that it is cold enough from December through February to snow when those storms come through our neck of the woods. 2 winters straight of 40° rain has made me a skeptic.
aww come on fellers, this is our year for snow, just BELIEVE~~~~
Federal government forecasters are saying a no big deal winter coming this year for most of the US! You what happens when the government gets involved, ICE AGE is coming folks 😉
KNOW 🙂
I was really hoping for snow around Thanksgiving. If this winter is another dud, I’m gonna have to move farther north. No snow makes me sad.
thanks for the forecast, Chris. tracked the segment down on the KYT site. very well done. i really liked the method to the madness section.
here’s hoping we get some good tracking snows this year!
