The GFS model has been consistently showing another coastal event for next Friday the past few days. Speculate here!

All of the weather forecast that I have seen for Maine have basically dropped any mention of the snow that they had in the forecast for friday as late as last night.
I'm hoping it isn't dumping the morning of the 19th because that's when my flight for Jackson Hole leaves..
Inch of precip on Friday for Bangor according to the latest GFS:

Don't concern yourself with the rain designation.
From where?
Philly?
You'll be fine
In this weather pattern I feel like philly will just get a lot of rain this year. There is just too much warm ocean water and southeastern warmth to give philly a big snow storm.
allentown?
What's the route? On what airline...wow...never would have guessed that you could even fly out of allentown anywhere.
.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 158 PM EST SUNDAY...HIGH PRESSURE WILL MV OVER THE REGION
WEDNESDAY...AND OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST DURING THE DAY ON
THURSDAY. MDLS HAVE SHIFTED A BIT ON TIMING AND PLACEMENT OF FRNT
AND COASTL LOW FOR NEXT WINTER STORM LATE THURSDAY THRU FRIDAY.
FRNT WILL PUSH E ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE NORTH COUNTRY ON
THURSDAY/THURS NGT. SFC MOISTURE/QPF LIMITED SOMEWHAT AHEAD OF
THIS...SO WILL BE KEEPING CHANCE POPS DURING THE DAYTIME HRS.
REINFORCING ATLANTIC MOISTURE FROM COASTL SYSTEM WILL SURGE INTO
THE NORTHEAST LATE THURSDAY NGT INTO FRIDAY. THIS INCREASES THE
CHANCE FOR ACCUM SNOWFALL ON FRIDAY...W/ LOW TRACK CURRENTLY THRU
SE NEW ENGLAND. HAVE GONE AHEAD AND BUMPED UP POPS TO LIKELY FOR S
AND E VT ZONES ON FRI INTO THE EVENING HRS. WRAP-AROUND PRECIP
LATE FRIDAY WILL ALLOW ADDITIONAL ACCUM FOR EASTERN PORTIONS OF VT
BFR TAPERING OFF TO -SW SATURDAY.
What?!
Burlington NWS.
Cheryl Lemke was on the Weather Channel before commenting on what a nice January thaw the eastern part of the U.S was enjoying up until a few days ago.
Nice January thaw?
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
:angry::angry::-x:smash::flame::uzi:
many people spin the channels in search of the worst-sounding forecast they can find.TWC and weather.com is the joke of weather forecasting. There was a time I would spend hours watching the Weather Channel. Now I can hardly stomach it at all. Kind of like MTV in the 80's/early 90's compared to today.

Wouldn't it be funny to have a skier as a weatherman/woman? S/he wouldn't last two shows before being booted. It's not what people want to hear! And to think they have these invincible SUVs equipped for off-road, that sit in the heated garage while it snows....
And in NNY, NVT, NNH, ME, life goes on, people go to work, school is in session...

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
-- Changed Discussion --
AS OF 310 PM EST MONDAY...MUCH OF THE CWA THRU A GD PORTION OF THE
EXTENDED WILL SEE SOME WINTRY WX. BEST CHANCES WILL BE THURS NGT
INTO FRIDAY AS MDLS BRING POTENT SYSTEM TO THE REGION. SOME MDL
DISAGREEMENT AS TO LOW PLACEMNT OVER PAST COUPLE DAYS...W/ GFS
MORE AGRESSIVE W/ COASTL LOW. THIS WILL PUT BULK OF QPF FOR
CENTRAL/SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA. THE ECMWF SUPPORTS MORE OF
INLAND SFC LOW THAT DRAWS INT COPIOUS AMTS OF ATLANTIC MOISTURE ON
FRIDAY THIS SCENARIO DOES FAVOR WIDESPREAD SNOWFALL FOR THE ENTIRE
AREA...BUT ALSO THE CHANCE OF MIXED PRECIP AS WELL DUE TO WARM AIR
ALOFT WORKING OVER THE REGION. FOR NOW WILL MESH THE TWO MDLS AND
BRING SYSTEM IN FROM W TO E DURING THE DAY THURSDAY. THURS NGT
INTO FRIDAY AS COASTL SYSTEM DEVELOPS...OVER-RUNNING PRECIP WILL
INCR CHANCES FOR SNOW ACCUM...ESPECIALLY OVER SC VT...AS TEMPS FOR
NOW APPEAR CD ENOUGH FOR ALL SNOW. OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF MDL
RUNS...SOME FINE TUNING MAY BE NECESSARY FOR SOUTHERN/CENTRAL VT
ZONES TO POSSIBLY ACCT FOR WARM AIR INTRUSION...AND THUS GIVING
AREA SOME MIXED PRECIP(SLEET...ETC). SYSTEM LIFTS INTO THE
CANADIAN MARITIMES BY FRI NGT...ALLOWING UPPER TROUGH TO SWING
ACROSS THE AREA FOR MUCH OF THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. SO WILL KEEP
CHANCE POPS IN FOR -SW...HIGHLIGHTING BEST CHANCE IN NORTHERN
ZONES. HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE BUILDS IN FOR MONDAY. OTHER ISSUE FOR
THE UPCOMING WEEKEND WILL BE THE CD ARCTIC SURGE OF AIR THAT FALLS
IN BEHIND EXITING UPPER TROUGH. LATEST RUNS SHOW CORE OF AIR STAYS
JUST TO OUR NORTH FRI/SAT/SUN NITES...BUT WILL FILTER INTO AHEAD
OF MON RIDGE. 850 TEMPS STILL SHOW POTENTIAL -20 TO -30 C...BUT
WILL STILL MODIFY SOME BFR IT ARRIVES. SO WENT WITH GMOS TEMPS BUT
ADJUSTED DOWN SEVERAL DEGREES.
