January 2025 Forecasts And Discussions

[Storm]

GFS is a touch warmer and more realistic but it does show a skiff of snow with 925mb temps at -0.5C. It's worth watching though.

Also same as Nam

GFS looks a touch cooler late Fri into Sat morning. Any heavy showers would fall as wet snow overnight. Probably a mix bag of graupel, wet snow, hail and rain.

Cold enough for snow down to sea level by Saturday 0100am, but precip is spotty at best.

That's where Hawk prays for the border forcefield to build.

btw, isn't it about now the models are supposed to collapse a bit and show 1-3cm totals?

Mr. Minion don't you know by now the collapse begins once Wpro has left the bldg.

What happens next week is whatever at this point. The Saturday into late Monday time frame looks to be potentially fun. Focus on that and let the other details sort themselves out.

I saw that corporal Goose posted a list and Burns Bog was on it, l thought it was a typo but decent for radiational cooling.

You need that trough to shift ever so slightly eastward. Most energy remains far offshore. You see a developing shortwave on Sunday but this gets pushed away by the outflow.

Moisture totals aren't the best.

This is the frames with snow support.

Precip is a crap shoot for E Vsn isle. Usually, we do better with enhanced precip and outflow picking up moisture in the strait. A wait and see scenario.

More Snow on Wednesday.

Ya that east island deformation band that just kinda sits over there i.e. December 2021 and December 2023? might be wrong on dates but l remember Nanaimo getting nuked.

[HarrisonSasquatchWx]

How much snow for Chilliwack?

[John]

Storm I appreciate your input!!

GFS and GEM are quite similar with the progression.
