If this chart ever actually becomes reality, would we see snow along the
East coast on Monday 22 December?

Fingers crossed.

There's quite a difference between this chart from the 12z DT run and
the 06z DT run earlier on. The low over Scandanavia is there, but it's
in the Atlantic where the differences lie. The GFS has been very keen
in all runs to return back to the "climate norm" whereas the ECM, on the
last two runs, has been rather consistent in showing a rather blocked
pattern
with surface NE winds.

Given the scenario in the URL you give, I'd expect sleety/hail showers
over areas near to the coast but maybe snow further inland.

It's getting interesting now !
