If the low goes norrh....it will be because it is stronger, but a stronger low brings stronger outflow meaning dry.
That must be why the lower mainland has never seen snow in its entire history?

Saturday thru Monday will be the time to watch for the south coast...
Yeah agreed. Would take a huge shift north to give us those 4+ inch amounts. Possible but highly unlikely

Strong arctic high with strong pressure gradients and weak systems tracking south....This is not a good setup for the LM.

Overrunning system this weekend from the NW is better for the LM.

GFS will be the GFS. Probably safe to add 6ËšF to those numbers.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Saturday system looks further south and is splitting. Probably won't be as much snow for us

Or maybe the 18Z GFS is full of it again.
