That trend is my best friend

Can somebody post the link to the site where you can view the max daily high from Environment Canada? It's available on the historical data around midnight but I know there's a site where you can access that information sooner. I just don't have the link. Should have bookmarked it.

Could you use this to look it up or is that not accurate?

Nah there's a database/file directory somewhere with subhourly data as well. I once had the link but lost it. I know what Jr is talking about tho.

Amounts trending upward IMBY!

Looks like my 20+ cm call is going to verify.

Found it!

Awesome! Thanks so much.

Edit: Maybe it's just me but it doesn't seem to be showing the detailed daily observations anymore when selecting an airport. Perhaps that data is no longer publicly available? Maybe I'm just not reading it right but I can't see anything to do with the max temperature or precipitation.

What's with EC telling me on the hourly that there's a risk of freezing rain at the onset of snow, and then remove it at 3am.

I wish I felt that optimistic! I will be pleasantly surprised if I get 15 cm.

NWS giving us pretty poor odds for >20 cm of snow

You gotta search for the max_air_temp stuff, it's all buried. This is YXX today:

Latest HRRR is showing some impressive totals in places by 9am tomorrow. More snow to come after this point.

It's the HRRR and seems to change outcomes every run. I'm just posting for discussion purposes.
