By the time it exits the East for Christmas, a moderate arctic airmass sh= ould have finally invaded much of the Eastern two thirds of the U.S. The a= ir behind the storm now exiting the NE turned out to be a little colder tha= n expected as 20's and 30's are widespread this morning even down to the Gu= lf Coast. The first real Lake Effect snows of the season are underway in th= e Eastern Lakes. Sunshine farther West will modify this airmass to near if = not slightly above normal this afternoon. But, it is a part of a stepping d= own in temperatures that has gradually occurred over the last week to 10 da= ys. That pattern should continue as Canadian highs are lined up to our NW a= nd I still expect each one to be progressively colder into early January. T= he next storm is plowin! g into the West Coast today with rain this morning= well South into Central California. This system should emerge into Colorad= o tomorrow with a weekend track to the NE toward the Great Lakes then East = from there. I do expect some Christmas weekend snows in the Northern fringe= s of this storm, but more real estate will see rain rather than snow. A bel= ow normal plunge of air should follow this storm by Christmas as ridging ra= pidly develops in the West deepening a trough into the East. Five day tempe= rature numbers still reflect an above normal bias as we see one final warmu= p the next 2-3 days before the colder air strikes late in the period.

If it does, it will be the first= period in over two months that runs cold. Relative to normal, it may not b= e as significant as some of the warmer departures have been, but it should = get some attention. There are some differences on where the heart of the co= ld sets up. I believe it will tend to be more on the Plains rather than the= East Coast. But all models in this time frame have a strong ridge West/tro= ugh East signature on them. One additional surprise could be a Southern jet= stream storm. I don't see anything particularly ominous yet, but the setup= suggests something could be in the offing.
