Depends on what part of the country gets this system. This much is certain: Texas again won't be receiving any of it. Much of that stuff is expected to stay north. Texas just hasn't had a winter at all this year. Any front that we do get will not see big temperature drops. I don't think we've seen one high temperature below 40 degrees all season long. And February begins tomorrow.

Good grief, Charlie Brown???!
December 6th? December didn't look too far from average. Looks like your area got much needed precipitation this month as well.

I can check (somewhere ), but if that day had a high below 40 (in Dallas), that may have been the only one. I'm sure in the Panhandle, they had snow back in November or December, but even they haven't had much.
Well, there's always hope for a pattern change for the series finale . Alternatively, perhaps we could plant a bomb underneath that football; that way it'll be sure to go up . Or Charlie Brown could surprise Lucy when she's not looking and that way kick it.
If you found all that odd, know that all of the above were analogies for winter weather.

Although the October Blizzard was a great storm, to go out like that would be simply pathetic. Of course not all hope is lost. February usually has the best potential for the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast (c.f. Snowmageddon even if that didn't impact your area as much). March storms can sometimes produce good snows all across the region, and in Western Mass. decent snows can even occur into April. Of course one or two good snows hardly make a good Winter. There's more to it than that. There's also the outside chance of a sudden climatic change. Recent research has indicated drastic climate changes have in the past occurred in as little as 3 months; so by May you could be looking at ice-age conditions in that scenario, with possibly June being your snowiest month (this is no joke, you can see the research into the bog pits yourself). However something like that is highly unlikely to happen at this particular juncture.

For some parts of Western Massachusetts, it would be very unlikely that October won't be the snowiest month, or at least have the biggest single storm. Up in the hills, one station recorded 32 inches of snow. We got 8 or 9 inches, I think, so yea, I agree February still has potential for snow, even if February stays warmish. The October snowstorm and scenery was memorable, as was the associated power outages.
So far, I haven't noticed much in the way of April or even late March snow in Western Mass. Spring tends to warm quickly here. Upstate NY is better for late season. I'll never forget 16 inches of snow on April 16-17 and cross country skiing.

You have any links or references on that research?
