That is plain and simple.
The problem is how much cold air will be available for it to work with? If the Euro is to be believed... this closed low and assoicated dynamics will create it's own cold air under the 500mb low(-13c). Where does that set up? No one knows right now.
While this storm will be primarily a rainmaker... a heavy snowfall is quite possible (and likely by Christmas eve) under the track of the 500mb low.
So are we talking puppy?
