So next week is looking more and more interesting. The Euro went batshit crazy on Tuesday showing a storm on the east coast. Nobody believed it. It then chilled out for a bit. Now, the GFS and the ECMWF are showing similar scenarios in terms of a winter storm for the east...a cold airmass moving in while a low forms off the NC coast. This is the perfect recipe. It's still a week-ish away though, and this could easily not happen. Cross your fingers though and READ THE BOTTOM PARAGRAPH OF THIS POST.







Here's the Euro meteogram for Boone. It goes out to next Saturday, and shows cold temps sticking around for next Wednesday through at least the end of the time period.







Now here's the snowfall totals from the models right now for Wednesday through Friday of next week. Euro on the left, GFS on the right.







This is still 6-7 days out. This is not a forecast, it's just a look at what's going on right now with the models. They've have been sucking lately for the medium to long range and have been flip flopping around, so this could change even today. Both are showing similar things though, which is the interesting part. If this does pan out, or even close to it, I think we could definitely see Sugar and Cat open by next weekend. The confidence in this happening is still on the low side though. I'm still pessimistic. I'll try and keep this updated.
WOOOOOO!

The 12Z Euro was so absurd, I'm not even going to post it. The snowfall totals it was spitting out were just absurd and highly unlikely. The GFS and the Euro differ on the timing and evolution of the event, but both are showing cold air no matter what. At this point, the potential for some snow in the mountains looks good, nobody knows how much though. As Panovich just tweeted...
