 ALBERTA CLIPPER Later This Week - Eastern US Weather Forums
Energy rotating around the sprawling cAk vortex in N QC will trigger precipitation in two waves: one system (the Alberta Clipper) this weekend and another early next week that is complicated by an emerging closed low over the Sonoran Desert.
The Alberta system will be a fast mover, and the relatively uniform treatment of this feature by the NWP schemes give us some confidence in making the track projection.
There may be complications: a north or south deviation in track, intensification on Saturday due to pulling energy and cold air from the QC vortex, or a possible use of the Atlantic Ocean moisture source that would push accumulations up to the left of the path.

An Alberta Clipper is the name we give to certain types of snowstorms here.
The name derives from the fact that they originate in Alberta, sweep down across the border (no documentation required) into the United States at high speed (hence the 'Clipper') and deposit large quantities of snow upon us.
Here in Alberta we get these lovely winds off the west coast and up over the mountains they swirl down across the southwestern part of our province over the winter months and keep our temps bouncing around from -24C to +10C within a span of as little as 24 hours.

An "Alberta clipper" system moved rapidly southeastward across Iowa on 15 February 1996, producing a mesoscale band of heavy snow oriented NW-SE across the entire state (isolated 6 to 7 inch accumulations within a narrow 30-mile wide swath).
A well-defined vorticity lobe was evident on the water vapor imagery, which tracked just to the southwest of the heavy snow band.
The next day (16 February), the clipper system deepened as it moved across the mid-Atlantic states (national radar composite).
