Several storm systems will be taking aim at the east coast.
first distrubance event is tonight with scattered rain and snow showers being possible
The sunday through monday storm looks more and more weaker, looks like there is also less cool air to work with as well. This is why there is only a chance of rain and snow showers which even then could not happen. this is still 4 days out.
Another system will be moving out to sea but could throw a rain and snow showers to southern regions of the area monday night and tuesday.. this will have very little effect on the region, easily could be just cloudy
Another system will effect the region as it takes an inland track tuesday night through christmas eve. this as of right now looks to be rain and with current trends on the models and the trend so far this winter we can expect rain and wind being the more probably outcome or it being so far west it just gives us some showers christmas eve afternoon.
there will probably be a great lack of sunshine after saturday morning . Either way the chance of a white christmas as it looks right now looks unlikly. Will keep you updated
