February 2023 Forecasts And Discussions

That's what I've been doing too. I think there's just less excitement for a late winter blast up here especially after getting nailed earlier. Maybe it'll pick up soon if the models actually hold.

Looks mostly dry up here as well with better snowfall chances down South for early next week.

The 300+ hour stuff keeps also getting pushed back.

You sure?

By pushed back he actually means moved up

The ferry to Victoria tomorrow do you think it will be canceled due to the winds ?

Unlikely in the morning, but I could see the evening sailings at risk.

Right now having to read the AF is a bit deflating but it's where all the action is. not many members on our site seem excited at the moment.

3 kids and shift work. I just don't have the time unless I'm on leave.

30 cm of snow on Friday??

Is this affected by terrain bleed? I haven't seen any other evidence of lowland snow before the 22nd or so, and those temps don't exactly scream snow.

Thursday night and Friday morning might be interesting.

Do you mind posting the temperature maps? I'm feeling skeptical about that one.

Oh, I checked that already! +1 at the surface, -2 at 925 mbar in the same model. Here you go:

Could be something. Most likely a pomoman Westworld plateau special imo, with splats and slush in a few spots.

Totally understand Bones guess just missing the chatter we have up here when things are happening.
However l just check the maps on the AF and try to stay away from all the shots they take at each other it can be entertaining but usually it's stupid.
