Right as it wraps up, they update the wording in the warning to 10-15 cm LOL. Well done, EC [/sarcasm]

The warm up starts to look less and less significant with each run.

The 6Z gfs was just basically never ending winter. A quick warmup then back to cold and snow
Lots of moisture for us to get lots of snow. The Pacific tap is right there. Models often fail with snowfall amounts. It's like throwing darts, but less accurate.

Oh and #Patternlock? :lol:

Yessss I hope so. I think we have all witnessed locked in weather patterns here. This is nothing new. Who really cares what the models say although they do a good job sometimes. This appears to be the next phase in the weather Xtreme. We may be living it right now and not even realizing it. I think it is entirely possible we keep getting cold and snow for a very long time.

This is why I dislike nighttime snows lol I missed the whole thing. Starts right as you sleep and ends as you wake up :lol:

Anyways looks like I picked up 15cm but I will officially check in a few minutes.

I couldn't be bothered to measure but I'm going to guess around 15 cm of snow fell here it's still snowing lightly.
Another victory in #tat #patternlock
:clap: :clap:
Gotta love the higher snow totals..although snow is super fluffy at these temps to have those higher accumulations.

I don't have official measurements, I just looked outside my door and noticed much more snow on the stairs than was there when I went to sleep. :lol:
