Not looking good for a PD Winter Storm.............

.........at least in my area. What else is new!! This forecast has DRASTICALLY changed from just last night when they were calling for mid 30s and a chance of snow Presidents' Day! Why the sudden drastic change? Are the models not calling for cold air to get pulled down like they were before? Anyway, this is the latest Pittsburgh forecast......

Here in D.C. forecast for Sunday thru Tuesday is now for all rain. We will see. This is ridiculous- it just will not snow in the Mid-Atlantic this year. Things look great one week out, but as it nears, boom all rain. I am not crying, just wondering how so many times these models moderate. Aren't these models suppose to learn by experience and add it to the data base for next time?
