OT: Overnight euro showing snow for this Friday evening

For those curious, there is still the potential for a winter storm next Thursday/Friday, but as expected this far out, models are all over the place for each run, showing everything from nada to mostly rain with some snow inland to significant snow for everyone.
Flying to Tampa early Friday morning
Hopefully this doesn't materialize
 
Thanks for the updates. Oddly enough, I live just one town away from East Hanover in Roseland and my apple weather app is now showing a bunch if snow in roseland tonight yet one town away in east hanover, no snow. What are you seeing for east hanover tonight?
No change in the forecast other than the light precip tonight (still around 0.05") could be a mix of rain and snow showers (no accumulation) as temps will likely be in the mid/upper 30s vs the ~40F forecast yesterday.
 
Flakes are flying in Philly and the surrounding area - no accumulation expected with temps well above 32F. Hopefully we'll see some of those flakes up here soon...

Point forecast in ringoes is for "periods of snow" the remained of the day. Radar algo shows snow over us. All rain, not even a flake lol.
 
Hopefully this isn't a prelude to a long, cold, gray and snowy winter!!
Most winter predictions I've seen (including NOAA's) are for a warmer than normal winter with normal precip levels, implying less snow than normal, although the 2000-2020 period which was the 2nd snowiest 20-year period in recorded history, featured generally well above normal temps, so it's quite possible to have warmth and snow, as long as the timing of precip and cold is aligned. Anyway, while I'd love to see a snowy, cold winter, I put little stock in winter predictions, as I haven't seen winter predictions that are anywhere near as accurate as tropical season activity predictions.
 
For those curious, the Euro and CMC at 12Z showed a moderate to significant (2-5"/4-8" range) snowfall for just NW of 95 and beyond with just a little snow along 95 and nada towards the coast (all rain), while the GFS shows no storm. The models have not been consistent from run to run either, although the key point is a winter storm of some sort is looking at least somewhat likely for Thursday into Friday. Worth watching.
