"And That's The Way It Is...?"
FORECASTER CELINE MAY THINK SNOW THIS WINTER IS DONE.
WE BELIEVE FANTASTIC SNOW IS STILL LURKING IN THE LONG RANGE.

10:00 AM 1/28 - Long time Powderhounds can tell when we're reading their mind, and we know what you're going through in winters like this. Then again, Spring-a-lings and Coastals are probably candy happy with the way it is so far. For the rest of us...
- When you want it to snow...there's no easy way out. When you're ready for Pow, but the forecast's in doubt,
- Don't give up on your sky, because we have a solution if you're willing to try.
- It's plain to see if we stick together, weather will find a way.
- Just don't surrender, because you can win in this thing called snow.

Short version of what we see?
- Temperatures: Surface and upper level conditions over North America are cooling at the right time as we head into February. The ground is becoming refrozen over night to the point that once precipitation occurs, it can easily stick.
- Precipitation: The southern jet stream is slowly being reactivated as increased moisture transport will begin occuring from the east Pacific into the U.S. in the next 2 weeks.
- Snow cover: As clippers cross the Great Lakes, more and more snow squalls are helping rebuild lost snow cover in the Northeast.
What it all means: Allow this process to continue another 5-10 days, and it's easy to predict much of the Mid-Atlantic will be primed to go powder. Even better, it would be right on schedule during a period in the February calendar already well-known for memorable snow events.
And THAT'S the way we think it is...
