The pattern depicted on the EPS would be a pretty big snow maker.

this is good.

I know but it would all be ruined by the "fake cold" that followed it according to Nito. Can't imagine anything worse than a decent snowpack followed by cold dry temperatures.

Fake cold usually results in H -5 to -8 and L -12 to -20 in the Similkameens

I cannot believe how much the models are diverging and changing from run to run. The only thing I'm pretty sure of is there will be a cold airmass SOMEWHERE at SOMETIME.

The 12Z GEM is pretty close to being great at the end. Lots of cold air in BC.

Are you seriously rooting against some snow around Christmas?

Are you seriously rooting against some snow around Christmas?

What would you rather have?

1) A cold Christmas period (1 week) with less than 5cm of snow
or
2) 3 weeks of cold and snowy in January.

Yes, exactly.
