ReykjavÃk is expected to have 5 C/41 F lows after New Years while Bucharest is expected to have highs below freezing with sunny skies. Those warm Atlantic Ocean waters working overtime next week.
You are not going to have any kind of winter this year compared to last year. Just as much as i am not going to have any winter at all. I had my 3 weeks in the sun in Dec with 10" of rain and colder weather and clouds. That is over rover and not coming back. 80's and 90's here this week. Dose anyone notice how each month of the year is seeing 90's in FL now and that it will only get worse over the next 30 years.
another storm with a path from the southwest rather than up the coast. Brings more warmth to further west than east so the Adirondacks get more rain than Maine mountains at the same latitude
Beautiful snowy morning in Lake placid, N.Y. snowed about 1.5" last night, makes for some nice powder today. At least all my skiing will be in by the time that rainstorm moves in
So here's Northern Europe at 2 pm Central European Time today:
Quite an average winter day, just above freezing or thereabouts during the afternoon as the temps are up to 4°C offshore on the Baltic Sea. Both Russia and the waters between Ireland and Iceland are rather mild right now, with 10°C air temps offshore at 62°N, which definitely will set the tone for the weather this coming week, since there's no obvious cold source at this moment in time.
Light Snow moving across due to a jet couplet producing upper level divergence. Moisture is very limited.
Cool disco here. Love when they talk clouds. And note they had to add snowflakes into the forecast. Last minute change.

.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure will build in today.
A strengthening low will track over the eastern Great Lakes New Year`s Eve, and into northern New England on New Year`s Day.
Another storm system may impact the area during the mid to late week period.
A jet couplet producing upr lvl divergence will pass thru the
region this mrng. Moisture is very limited, and most of the
modeling is dry. The hires models however have trended towards a
bit of very lgt qpf reaching the area between 11-15z. There are
a few flurries and light snow showers to match the radar
returns across NY state. At least some flurries seem possible
mainly across the Hudson Valley into CT, so they have been added
to the fcst this mrng as a result.
As subsidence increases today, flattening cumulus clouds again is likely
with some residual moisture around 4000 ft and temps close to
convective.
Clearing is expected tonight before high clouds begin increasing.
Favorable radiational cooling cond as a result. A blend of the
MET and MAV was therefore used for low temps.
I see some 1" reports in NY but that's about it. Just 0.1" here.
Doesn't look like Philly International reported anything maybe the suburbs saw some flurries.
NYC had some flurries/light snow
(Orange lines is the 27,000 foot flow pattern)
Here are the winds. Note the strongest winds at that upper level was over the region. White arrows = 100kts+
Moisture starved environment but the Jet streak was able to create some precip in the cold sector.. Little dip in the trough.

I'm impressed that another storm is popping up for end of week. 3 in 1 week is impressive. (28th, 31st, 4th)
Could of been a 2010-11 repeat with 5 feet of snow in 4 weeks.. Oh well. All these wasted storms.
I also am reminded how coastal storms are the only way to get big snowstorms around here..
