Wheres WPro to soothe the pains and provide much reassurance during these difficult and stressful moments? Things appear to be slipping some

Temp up to 5.4. Everything seems unlikely now. All the hype, all the temp and precip maps; this area is cursed

Of course this happens after EC issues a snowfall warning.

Trends looked so promising this morning. But, as I say, it is never too late for a last-minute rug pull!

Yes. Wpro might be able to cut through the hype..

The models were struggling, as they often do of course:
1: The extent of the troff digging SW and Low placement
2: Precip type this weekend, with some models showing a mix Sat/Sunday.
Lets see where were at by Feb 4 at 6pm. Dont stress buttees.

Drive to Catnip Hill Monday 7pm and im sure you will be like WOWWWWWW

The trend of taking the ULL further off the coast a few days ago was a sign that this could happen. Just a reminder that models tend to show more juice with these features outside of 24 hours.

Oddly enough, EC's forecast from 2 days ago was spot on. ECs forecast is now too snowy.

Except that we don’t know what will actually happen yet, so how can we know which one was spot on?

The next run of models could easily be an improvement.

it is south but...NWS said sorry snowlovers..5-10cm is tops. Some isolated areas may see more as usual, but spotty precip bands wont do anything with these lame temps. I wouldnt be surprised to see mixed precip at sea level/coastal areas in the LM with negligible slushy cms, for some of this event right through to Monday evening. Just a sloppy disappointment if that happens

[Canada Goose]

all Drive BC cams in Poco show bare and wet everywhere at sea level. Can you provide a link to a DT Poco webcam..or photos?

It sure does.

I thought it was strange that the mesoscale models (particularly NAM) were so much drier than the Euro and GFS. If the 18Z Euro comes in dry, the caving to the mesoscale models (and the rug pull) will be complete.
