Next Storm looking less likely
The storm that gave Toronto 10 cm of heavy wet snow is pushing of to the east and we are left with a hangback trough that will give us another 2-5 cm of snow.That leads me to talk about the next storm for friday night into saturday morning which this morning was looking like a major snowstorm with 10-20 cm however latest models indicate that this storm is going to be a no-storm for the GTA but simply just some light snow accumulating to about 2-6 cm by saturday afternoon.The models keep the bulk of the energy stateside where the center of the low will track across the ohio valley then out into the atlantic.The EURO/UKMET,and GFS have trended south with the system.The only model that still has the storm giving toronto decent accumulations is the NAM but I consider it an outlier right now as I expect it to shift south like what the other models are showing.What seems more and more likely is the arctic air coming down next week and right now the models are saying that toronto might have an afternoon high next wednesday of -15! Yikes.With this type of pattern setting up I expect that there will be some pretty hefty snowsqualls in the traditional snow belt areas and some areas could have over 2 feet of snow by the end of next week.Well time to go ypoungweatherman and I will continue the update the blog over the next couple days on the so-called storm for saturday.
