True and it was an exhausting model ride for 5 days of greatness. Obviously we're unlikely to top that so it's hard to be thinking about model riding.

Also it's fricking gorgeous outside. I might go for a cold plunge in the sun.

I think this rinse and repeat crap of the last 2 years is taxing Kells.
5 day's of winter followed by dullness the rest of winter.
O.k. maybe 9 day's of winter including end of November but l think you get the picture.
Glad your getting the go ahead to head back to work believe me you won't miss 2 things our Sh*t hole of winter and the worst managed team in the NHL work will keep your mind off both excuse the language but you do get sick of it. :sick:

I'm not in Ch'town anymore but they've had a bit of snow (a pitiful 28.6" cm so far this month) but no snowpack at all.

Where I am I have barely held onto a snowpack, even after tons and tons of rain and freezing rain. Honestly the freezing rain probably helped. More snow here than Charlottetown and even Summerside. Lucked out on the location. :clap:

Snowing quite nicely now though and the forecast looks very good finally. :thumbup:

Nope! I’m still fully on #teamsnow. Just taking a more sit back and relax approach this time around.

Same here, although I am looking forward to summer. Can't wait for a month in Europe in August.

So, either it’s going to be a total bust and no snow for anybody, or it will bust the other way and even sea level locations will get a dusting.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Both Euro and GFS say snow tomorrow afternoon and evening. Temperatures and surface dewpoints are marginal, could be phantom snow, could be real. Even if the snow level ends up on the low side my guess is not much accumulation unless you get some elevation. EC SWS seems reasonable.
