Glad some people here had some fun this morning. Have already written off tonight. Hope weekend is still on because I now physically need that 4.5 cm of snow to fall to be happy.

Climo :cancel: ∞ to 0.5 :14clown: GFS

Season total: 0.5 cm and TWO traces!
Peak depth: 0.5 cm (01/07/2026)

Sorta “ouch!” Because when the GFS stands alone as being the promising one for snow chances this weekend, it’s probably not gonna happen.

Not gonna totally write it off quite yet; there is still a day or two for things to trend more favourable for lowland snow chances. But I would feel a lot better if that top chart said “ECMWF.”
