These parts of Virginia could see snow next week
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Forecast models are hinting at the first mountain snow of the season for the southern and central Appalachians next Friday and Saturday, November 13 and 14. This is early pattern spotting, and nothing is set in stone yet. The timing lines up with when the region usually sees its first northwest flow snow event. The same cold air could also bring the first freeze to areas outside the mountains.

ALBANY, N.Y. — Forecast models continue to show cold air and a possible coastal storm near the end of next week and into the weekend. That setup could bring a chance of accumulating snow, especially across higher terrain in the Northeast. The Euro AI ensemble shows a 50 to 60 percent chance of at least 3 inches of snow in some mountain areas. Much will depend on timing, the storm’s track and strength, and how much cold air moves south.

Overall, a chilly Friday was the theme across southern West Virginia. The big difference between today and yesterday was the fact that we were dry today which made things feel a little better than having cold mist and wind. The dry weather is going to be with us for at least the next few days. There is another system that we are watching in the pipeline and most models are in some agreement on the fact that cold air could accompany this system. Taking a look at the comparison of the Euro and GFS models around Friday evening, you can see the big difference between the two. The European model has us battling quite a bit of dry air, so not much rain or snow looks to fall into Friday, while the GFS model looks to have not as dry of air and quite a bit of snow falling for some of us in our area.

Silly snow map season is starting, and one map already making the rounds online shows huge snow totals across the Mid-Atlantic by mid-December. The map comes from the European extended ensemble, often called the Euro Weeklies. It is a 1,104-hour forecast, which works out to 46 days into the future. Snow totals that far out are not a reliable forecast and should be treated as entertainment at best.
