January 2022 Forecasts and Discussions

What does the timing look like? If most of that is modeled to fall while temps are above 1-2c, then it's probably still got resolution issues.

As always, use the 10/1 ratio to cut projected snow totals by 10. Or is it by 101?

Northern update after a high of -5c the arctic air is coming back and it has dropped to -12c. My flight was supposed to be this evening but it got switched to 6 AM tomorrow so that means getting up at 3

My time up north is over, it has been fun tobogganing, cross country skiing and downhill skiing.

On positive news I see the 18z has a retrograde in the range! More arctic air ahead?

Seems to be a mix of rain and wet snow up here.

Looks to be raining even up at sfu, when does the cold air push in again?

[PortKells]

National blend of models says wait until Wednesday. I'm fine with that. I'd like to get a snow day out of it.

If by cold air you mean below 0c, then probably not until Tuesday night.

[PortKells]

on and off changes from rain to snow and back and forth until the big overrunning event mid week that should give me a day off. I personally don't care if it snows more tomorrow or tuesday, its not going to accumulate much IMO. If it does though, great.

The vast majority of this falls midweek. Shows widespread heavy snow but probably better with elevation.

These NBM maps are always wrong.

Something is sucking down south. North winds have picked up quite a bit now for me. Probably at 40km

As expected it wasn’t enough. Nothing happened. Warmed up and rain as I mentioned, just thought there would be some freezing rain.

If by cold air you mean below 0c, then probably not until Tuesday night.

Sounds like the snow level is about 500 m currently on Cypress. Someone reported snow starting shortly after the viewpoint.

[Radar]

Why is the GFS continually running much cooler?

[Hound]

Massive gusts finally have kicked in here.
Temp +4.5
DP: +2
