February 2021 Forecasts and Discussions

Interesting...doesnt even form a southern low. The low offshore meanders and dies throwing a weaker less organized impulse of moisture way but the absense of a strong low leads to lesser outflow winds.

Could happen...

Anything is possible. Maybe other models tonight or tomorrow will cave to its solution. One can only hope at this point.

Yes but the RGEM is a good model. I think I’d trust the RGEM over the nam lol

I guess we will see. Let’s hope things trend more favourable on 00z tonight.

Still time to put a new rug under us!

Gfs appears to have just caved. This climate is so frustrating

Banana split.

Southern and Eastern Vancouver Island got epic snows during the January 2005 event.

I thought Washington did well with that one too. Maybe I'm wrong.

We got a bit of snow going into the cold snap in 2005. Had about ~10cm on the ground for just over 10 days and some of the small local lakes froze over.

The huge bust was the big overrunning event that was predicted... we ended up getting less than 5cm of snow followed by record warmth and rains for the remainder of the month. YXX hit 18c on the 19th with a low of 10c. Canada day 2020 was actually colder than that.

18Z GFS is an improvement for Monday.

Parallrel GFS looks better for Sat. Is it available on WeatherBell?

[wetcoast91]

Root for more splitty-ness if you want snow.

They just added it to the list but its greyed out. I assume it will be operational on the site soon.

If only those values were inch amounts…

Operational is nonexistent for Saturday so maybe just maybe.

Looks like I may score a subfreezing max today. Hit -0.2c half an hour ago - current temp is -0.6c, dp -14.8c.

Pretty steady E wind all day, I'd guess some gusts peaked at near 40km/hr.

Just got back to Ladner, looks like I made it up to 0.4c which is a little higher than I expected. Back down to -0.1c so that’ll probably be my high for the day. Pretty gusty NE winds but nothing too crazy. Recorded my lowest temp of 2021 at -4.3 this morning...I sure hope I can beat that by at leasts a couple degrees tonight.
