Snow headed this way???
There is not a lot of talk from other meteorologist of the potential for significant snow. Not sure what they are waiting on but the models are being consistent in at least showing a little snow on the end of all the rain. Several of the major models are jumping on the idea that a potent wave of low pressure will develop along a slow moving front and bring significant snow to the high country. I think everyone will see rain from now through Wednesday. A change over to snow will begin in the highest elevations first (Wednesday evening) working it's way down to the Boone area over night and down towards the foothills by daybreak Thursday. This has the potential to be a Significant Snow for everyone above 2,000 ft. I think the cold air will initially have trouble getting over the mountains so the foothills will likely only see a brief change over to snow early Thursday morning limiting the accumulations off the mountain.
My first take on Accumulations *** Subject to change***
Mountains: 3-6"+
Foothills: Dusting-2"
This system is still out over the New Mexico region, once it breaks out into the southern plains the models will get a much better handle on what will happen. Tomorrow afternoons models will tell the story, stay tuned...
