Possible 'Call for Forecasts' slips to THU ... 17-JAN-19

UPDATE2:
Possible 'Call for Forecasts' TUE ... 15-JAN-19

Mid-latitude cyclone progged along leading edge of Arctic boundary (sub-zero post-frontal dew points).

Current guidance suggests mainly SNE forecasts stations in line for more than nuisance storm-total snowfall.

---
UPDATE:
Overnight runs failed to deliver a contest-worthy snow storm over the forecast area.

NWS WFOs in VA and SE PA bumped their STP forecasts early this AM; however ... only a handful of stations came close to exceeding the 'nuisance' Contest criterion.

---
As of 8 PM post-time ... M-A/s weekend snow storm appears contest UNworthy (too few stations with more than nuisance snowfall)

Will re-evaluate the storm/s Contest potential FRI morning based on the overnight progs.

'Call for Forecasts' would come before noon ... if warranted.
