Let's talk perception for a moment, think about how warm it's been for them these past 3 Winters and to get it down that far Sub Zero, it's going to be biting frigid even for Alaskan standards.

Yes it will. My friend who lives in Fairbanks sent me pictures of her thermometer in 2014 that was 10 degrees warmer than I was here during our cold stretch that season. It will be a bit shocking to them and it's not even midwinter yet. Of course if what I think is going to happen works out, we all could be a bit shocked here too. :)

Don't think we even got close to zero last winter around these parts, did we? I don't know about y'all but cold + wind is the worst for me, thus remembering the PV visit in Jan '14 when the wind chill was -41º that evening is what sticks in my mind, even more than the colder (but calm) Feb 2015 dates.

I agree, those biting WC's are nasty.  During that memorable Winter, I remember my furnace broke down and the cold winds blowing against by bedroom window made it very uncomfortable.  The chill was felt in many different ways.  I can feel the drafts all over my place, even where there was some insulation.  At times that season, it felt like the movie "Day After Tomorrow".

12z JMA still has the storm, but shunt off east quickly as a northern piece popped up on this run suppressing the storm.

18z GFS still a no go for the weekend storm

 

Ukie has a nice storm developing at the end of its run

 

999 in S. AR

Either this will be a complete bust or coupe by the GFS.  If it doesn't have the right idea, might need to wait till the occluding low moves on out by Wednesday.  Cut-off storms are a devil to handle by the models.
