There’s always a good March madness storm for us to rely on!!

Right?? 😀

I am taking two weeks and a day off of work beginning on March 11. I am sure it will late season snow then 🙂

 

I am in a win win situ...I want to see a decent snow storm but I also want to NOT see snow til next winter.  I guess one will likely happen 😄

East Asia system correlates with ours & could be helpful with models all over the place. Looks like a southern track & then OTS. Soul, South Korea correlates with Paducah, ky. So a 1:1 correlation keeps this south of Ohio River.

The precip type does not always correlate with our neck of woods. Unless there's a good push of cold before or with system, with that track south of Ohio River, I'm guessing rain. 

Now 1:1 is not a guarantee. EAR is a tool. Sometimes it is 1:1, & sometimes it's not. If the system structure played out that way, I think the best case scenario for some wet snow would be for this to track a little further north than above, get precip north of Ohio R & wet snow is a greater possibility.

Obviously the best, best case would be for the ULL to be strong, & at least neutral & system to be stronger.

12z GFS & CMC are misses to the SE, but that's okay considering we're 6 days out at this point. I'm mostly skeptical that there will be enough cold air to produce a widespread snowfall in the region. Seems like this thing is destined to produce one of those 2-3 county-wide, narrow snow swaths.

Agreed. There is a narrow road to success. These solutions have been all over the place the past few days. At least there is something to peak at during this (sunny) lull.

Totally agree. Keeping an eye on this but lack of good colds with this limits potential excitement.

Think a wrapped up system cutting to the Western Lakes is unlikely at this point. A southern slider OTS or system affecting the OV seems plausible

Agree, but I'm skeptical that anything but a cutter will produce any snow.  I hope I have to eat a big crow sandwich.

I would agree the cold air arrival may not be there in time the further SE this tracks. If pattern change includes a more +PNA, -AO, -NAO then would favor the weather madness depiction in the long range for snow chances. My area would be in NW flow looking for a clipper or as they say on Americanwx "CAD purgatory"
