Actually Nitos cool. He's a good Buttee to have around.

Let's go with a Pineapple instead.

I wish we had some verification scores to see how the parallel has been doing against the old GFS.

Time is running out. It may happen...but its just a bad winter for snowlovers. I've had 3 "snow" events this year at 330 feet ASL. First one came out of nowhere for about 10cm of mostly slop. Next one was days ago..5mm of more slop. Massive BUST...like Morgana.
This am with another 10mm of slop. :bs: :bs: :bs:
There is 3x BS's ...one for each event.

Please warm spring sun..show yourself to us soon! :sunshine: :sunshine:
Looking forward to our first 3 day stretch of sun and 20c++ 8-)

Seems unfathomable that the parallel is even close but im basing that off of anecdotal recollections. It just always seems to show these insane solutions that never verify.

He’s on #teamnito

He had a small relapse and came back to #teamsnow for a minute, but his loyalty this season is elsewhere.

I think Nito offered him all the Pineapple Dole Whip he wants.

:think: :think: That stuff is pretty darn good, so I can see why he switched teams.

If you're looking for big snows, that's a promising setup for the south coast.

Only 300 hours away though. :think:
