The resolution decreases once you get into the 300+ hour range anyways right?

Shows 5-15cm of wet snow on Friday, changing to rain in the evening. Chilly and wet through Saturday afternoon before the arctic front pushes thru from the north in the evening, interacting with a surface low. Another shot of snow with that before things clear up Sunday.
Love this run! Keep it coming

We’re back to 2 feet of snow on this run. I’m guessing we’ll continue to swing back and forth on this until much closer to the actual snow events. But one can dream...
