Fixed it for you. :lol: :lol:

Too bad there likely won't be much in the way of fresh snow cover. I don't know the specifics of why, but the fresh stuff lends itself to cold low temps more than the old frozen crusty snow.

The moment I saw the elongated trough dig too far south and offshore 2 days ago...the more it reaffirmed my belief the better jet dynamics were going to be centered further south. Models are going to handle this one better. 500mb pattern has not changed in the past 5 runs.
So you’re saying it could happen! :dancepine: :dancepine: :dancepine:

Yeah, that's one thing we haven't gotten out of this pattern. There's always some reason why it can't get cold... too cloudy, too windy, not enough snow cover, old snow cover. Come on... :bang:

Measured 4" (10cm) of snowfall about 1/2 hour ago. It had settled a bit so not sure what the exact snowfall was, but that should be fairly close.
