Oh boy. So! Anyone heard in good jokes lately? I’ve got one: The overnight GFS computer weather model.
Not a great joke without the picture. So:
I promise – I absolutely promise – you will see/hear about this during the next 24 hours from rogue facebook pages. They’ll post about southern snow on Thanksgiving and blizzard conditions, and super cold.
And I get it, for weather enthusiasts it is fun to see this kind of thing.
But it isn’t a likely scenario. Possible? Sure. But not likely. By any means. Other things in the “possible category include:
– Me getting a date with Anna Kendrick
– A giant meteor landing in the path of a formed tornado
– Mississippi not being humid in August
These things could happen. But the likelihood is very low. Some lower than others. I think snow on Black Friday is probably right behind “me getting a date with Anna Kendrick” and ahead of “giant meteor.”
As many of you are accustomed to hearing me say, “I’m going to take a conservative approach” to my forecast. So, in this case, I’m going to take a conservative approach. And that includes lookin at ensemble guidance, which, for the same time period shows temperatures a bit closer to “average”
So we will see how things shake out. But don’t get your hopes us (or your anxiety up, either) about the chance for wintry precipitation around Thanksgiving. For the moment that is still a very unlikely scenario.
