Snow In A Week?... Maybe

There is some chatter in the weather world about the chance of snow for next week. First, let's remember that we are talking about the forecast for 8 days out! That can be tricky, at best. BUT, the Euro model has consistently shown the possibility! The below map of the European Model was created from Accuweather Pro and shows precipitation (green) and it shows the rain/snow line (blue line) south of us.

IF this happened, we would have a decent snowfall on Tuesday, December 7th. That would be pretty cool, considering the Paragould Christmas parade is that night. :) And fellow Nashvillians that read the blog, you would be in line for snow, too.

BUT WAIT! This is not guaranteed! Another long range model we use is the GFS. IT shows cold air, but no precipitation. This model image is from NCEP.

Here's the deal. Like "Dumb and Dumber"... I'm saying there's a chance. I'm just not getting too excited 8 days out.

Stay tuned. I'll be posting through the week about this setup. Also... stay tuned for possible severe weather later today... especially in Southern Areas.

Looks like Nashville is right on the rain/snow line as usual...
