I just can't find very much positive to say for snow lovers. I am probably bringing some folks down with my posts but I can't help it. The reality of it just isn't good if one likes cold and snow.

Next week continues above normal temps and chances for rain. Have a good Ole fashioned fun family Christmas!!! . Apparently that's what a ton of people were preparing for, as yesterday I stopped at a local liquor store and the line was out the door, lol. Cheers to everyone!!!!

Concerning the warm weather and yes it would be nice to see some colder air especially for this time of year but still so lucky to live in this wonderful country and how blessed we are to still have freedom. It may seem like some folks are trying to take away those freedoms but this country has too many wonderful folks who will not let that happen. So Merry Christmas and hopefully I will get plenty of gifts since I have been really good this year lol.

Is that possible and no doubt especially with the pattern and a release of that cold air in western Canada. Many times you see these big highs in Siberia but this year with all the snow cover in western and central Canada and Alaska these highs can become very strong. Will we have the correct set up is the next question. Still love to see snow cover over the northern and central plains and still believe a bigger storm awaits us later this week with the temp difference. How cold does it get in the northern plains this week and how warm in southern Texas. Could no doubt see a 100 degree difference. This happens in the winter but usually brings with it a strong storm. The GOM has not been touched hardly at all this season and no cold fronts to cool down the waters. We can get several systems over the next two weeks with plenty of moisture. What will be fun to watch is what kind of Lake Effect Snows that could happen in January. Again getting those north and northwest winds to last several days is key to getting into some big time totals.
