Friday Update: Pattern Idea on Track...Seasonable Weather Continued

Good morning and happy Friday. Our weather pattern continues to look dynamic over the next several weeks. We will see a lot of high pressure develop over the higher latitudes which will cause a lot of storm activity across the country Thanksgiving week. Despite this, I do not see any air masses that will be cold enough for any snow makers for the eastern seaboard. It is the week following Thanksgiving (1st week of December) that we can see our first shot at snow. 

Starting off, we have a nice storm that will move into the area on Sunday. If it was 2 weeks later,  this would be a great snow maker. For now its just interior mountain event...

The reason we do not see widespread snow despite the fact the low pressure is in a good spot is that there is too much warm pacific air in the country surrounding the storm. This is really just a case of climatology (too early in season).

From there Thanksgiving week looks very seasonable. It does warm up a little on Wednesday as a storm system passes to our west...

In the wake of this things then cool down for Thanksgiving day with high pressure in control. Should be a chilly day and last into the weekend.

We then look to the 1st week of December. It is still very in the long range, but there is a chance of some winter weather along the east coast early that week form what I see.

We will discuss this further if things develop towards this idea.
