Still looks good for 4-8cm there. LM gets 0 and what looks like moderating temps before the next system arrives Sunday. :lol:

No. I'm leaving this depressing weather event Sunday morning. Will update you later. The cold air hangs tough on the SW plateau.

It hasn't even been that cold there maybe - 25 was as cold as it got Which is cold but it could easily drop to - 35 in a super cold air mass or at least -30.

Maybe 3cm on this GFS run? My guess is most doesnt reach the ground. Monday looks dry too. This airmass looks to be resliant!

And like I said I won't get excited until it's 4 to 5 days out, at which point it was looking great. But realistically the last 48 is when it really matters and now we all see what happens. Much disappointment unless the models flip at the last minute in our favour which I'm hoping for but it's not looking good. Isn't that right buttees? Hey where did you guys all go?

Never get excited till the snow is actually falling from the sky.


Learned that lesson a loooong time ago.
