Monster Storm Closes in on 50 Percent Snow Cover by Christmas

There is a good chance that a major storm will hit areas from the Midwest to the Northeast this weekend adding to a snow cover that will
cover 50 percent of the country by Christmas Day.
<snip>

The storm has the potential to explode into a major snowstorm that could produce in excess of 6 inches of snow over a large area of the Northeast U.S. and eastern Canada.






Bastardi is predicting that the pattern will result in over 50 percent of the country having a white Christmas which is well above the average coverage of less than 25 percent of the country which is usually
covered by snow Christmas Day.

Yes! We were snowed in for 7 days!
Keith, while in Louisiana, tell CB and Barbara hello (we went to school together). And MERRY CHRISTMAS to all of you.
Thanks and we'll do let me know your name so I can relay it to them...send me a message if you'd like...
Dec 2009 was one of the coldest on record maybe this year will be same and continue this time into jan/feb 2011----- hope all needs to burn lots of that good old NG----
Hope it snows ass high to an elephant everywhere but where i live!!
Okay, I can't resist, being from the South, but having spent a heck of a lot of my time in the 40 - 60 degrees N latitude range:
First of all, you really ought to consider using a moose as your "measurement animal" for how much snow you want; elephants, as of late, are hard to come by in the N. US, Canada and Alaska. Mind you, both are notoriously hard to handle...
Second of all, given that you are wanting to sell NG, the thing to be wishing for is not snow, but temps so cold it WON'T snow, preferably combined with high winds. Snow really indicates more moderate temperatures when it is coming down, and if it gets banked up against the house, can be insulating... ;-)
Long Term Weather Forecasts - The Browning Report on long term weather trends was published last
month. Some of their comments on the upcoming winter include the following:

The La Niña continues to grow stronger and, combined with other factors, will shape a cold and stormy winter. I’m watching a potential pileup. Three enormous weather patterns are surrounding North America. All three cause cold winter weather. Expect to be flattened. . . .

This winter’s La Niña will have far reaching economic consequences. Prepare for storms and flooding, higher food and fuel prices, strains on the local
infrastructure and, oh yeah, really great skiing

Agriculture – . . . There is a possibility that this year’s La Niña may be as damaging to global crops as the La Niña of 2007 – 2008. This winter’s phenomenon will be the strongest in almost 70 years and like the earlier event, it is interacting with Arctic volcanism. The La Niña of 2007 led to food shortages, particularly the rice shortage, of 2008. Historically, there is only a 30% chance of this happening – but the Newsletter is
monitoring the impact of this event on agriculture.
If the Report is accurate this winter should have an upward influence on natural gas and crude oil/heating oil
prices.

That is all these guys have to say about the weather. They are bullish on energy:
