Tough to say. That front really kicks up the SE/S winds prior to the arrival of moisture.
"Moist" lol wet snow, with S winds. Has that ever happened before? You know, when there is so much cold air and we get those Euuuuuuuuuuuge flakes with massive accumulations
Looking forward to our first 3 day stretch of sun and 20c++

We have done that, however the one drain around property is not working so the water floods into garage....temporarily have put up a plywood wall against house so the water from plugged ice gutters repells off plywood into yard for NOW. Will continue my work tomorrow morning around house. When do you think the snow starts or becomes heaviest as in accumulates fast???
Flurries through Sunday afternoon, 1-4PM is when the heavy snow starts and lasts through Monday late PM

Apparently we're only supposed to take hour 240 maps seriously when it shows warmth and ridging
I dunno about completely seriously, but I’d certainly take an hour 240 map showing ridging and +10 more seriously than one showing an arctic blast and -10. The former is closer to climo and thus much more likely to verify.

I could use a plus 10 sunny day for sureeeeee just to get some Sh*t done. Also because I don’t want to look like a huge inflatable mascot dressed all warm when I leave the house.

+10 really isn’t that much warmer than our average maximum next month. Odds strongly favour it happening at least once. Bet it’s been a long time since our last January with no +10 or warmer temps at all.

Highly unlikely ridging is going to result in +10 in early January

I’m okay with 7c and sunny
Don’t get me wrong I love this cold snap but does get a bit much if you’re outside. Buddy of mine sprained his ankle yesterday pretty bad.

Think inversion. Right Nito? Tell em Nito
Highs of 2-3c with fog, maybe 5-6c on the coast under sun. Possibly 7-8c in the valley under sunny skies. Lows of -2 to -5, depending on where the fog sets up
