:shock: :shock:
It looks like it's going to happen again. We seem to be in a #patternlock... every weekend we're getting a cold troff coming in followed by a midweek Ridge. This is the fourth or fifth one in a row. Will this last for 2 months like most #patternlocks usually do? That would lead to a relatively chilly spring mixed in with some nice Sunshine. I'll take it.

Sasquatch's snowpack is unbelievable. 5 meters and still growing. Great powder day today too. Drove through a quick snow squall after getting off the mountain, basically at sea level.

Fail indeed.

Is there any other option? I know the University of Washington had a radar site, but as of the last time I checked it didn’t incorporate Canadian data, which is/was a pretty big minus. If there’s integrated North American data being generated now, my hope would be there is some better alternative for visualizing it.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Today was a cool troffy day with N / NW flow. There was some nice pop up showers mainly along the mountains that were falling mainly as snow with very low dew points. Today was one of those days where it could have been 10C and sunny and then an hour later 5c or 6C with some wet snow falling. Right Nito? :thumbup:

Looks like another impressive troff for the weekend. What will this one bring? :think: :think:
Last one sucked as lower snow levels never materialized :bs: ..the previous troff was actually better for that.

Nito cursed us. He kept saying it would be a cold and wet spring and that winter would set up too late.
