Euro Model Shows snow just after Christmas.

At ten days away it is too early to get the plows ready but it is something to watch for.  I remain unconvinced that there will be a cold snowy, period next week.  There are some signs of it but not a clear signal, so far, but that could change fairly soon.  But at least there is a chance for it, unlike the last several weeks.  If any snow occurs later this week it should be light and well inland, with a good bit of rain as well.  So we could squeak in a semi-white Christmas over inland NJ.

Eastern USA is heading for a mild winter.

Although it will be stormy, we will likely have more rain than snow.  Only those areas far to the north and well inland stand a chance for substantial snows this winter.

But, this does not mean that we won't get cold spells along with snow.  It is just that rain will be predominating for most of this winter.

A cold Pacific Ocean, warm Indian Ocean and cold waters near Greenland will tend to steer the cold air toward the Western states and the Great Lakes.
