Re: December 2022 Forecasts And Discussions
Temps creeping up.
I got down to a low of -9 last night.
Current -4.5
DP: -5
The odd snowflake falling. There is so few, they look like they are falling in slow motion.

Re: December 2022 Forecasts And Discussions

The fact I had to go 372 HR out to find mild rain is concerning to all the warm rain fans here.
On a whole...every LR forecast seems to suggest one of those lengthy offshore rex-block patterns we saw in 2007-08 or 2016-17. Will other teleconnection indices come into to play to make this a substantial cold and snowy period?

I'm also getting slight December 2016 vibes right now. Nothing crazy cold but continuous chances for the lower mainland.wetcoast91 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 02, 2022 9:26 am![]()

Re: December 2022 Forecasts And Discussions
Expecting Cat 5 (on the Typer scale) arctic blasts in back-to-back years is probably a bit much, anyhow. Any snow is a treat in this climate.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Radar just bloomed over the western sections. I expect we'll have a decent flurry in the next half hour downtown.

Re: December 2022 Forecasts And Discussions
2016 was a truly special month coming off of two snowless winters. I would salivate at the thought of something like that again. There were two modified blasts that month, one on the 10th and another on NYE. Moderate cold but a bunch of nice snowfalls along the way.Rubus_Leucodermis wrote: ↑Fri Dec 02, 2022 9:51 am Expecting Cat 5 (on the Typer scale) arctic blasts in back-to-back years is probably a bit much, anyhow.
