Yeah , just when it seemed to be petering out it picked up again. Is it possible it could actually snow all day? Dare to dream.

There is still something magical about waking up to snow when you haven’t been paying attention to models. Almost felt like a kid again. Then my back ached and I was cruelly reminded of my age again.

imo > Maybe in the hills. Sea level and coastal likely not. The hills may even get stiffed. Pornoman should be fine. Local mountains will score over the next several days! :clap: :clap:
Looking forward to our first 3 day stretch of sun and 20c++ 8-)

I think I was one of the few really model riding yesterday. It was fun seeing all the short-term models climb on board the snow train yesterday afternoon.
It's called clown range for a reason.

Yup Rubus was posting lots. Maps had ~0-4cms. I guess they were mostly bang on, although the totals were on the higher end in some areas. As long as it is not marginal temps..i am happy and paying attention. The moisture tap is always there for us. 8-)
Tell em Rubus!!!

1.5cm here, still cold enough I could sweep it off the deck! A few, very few, tiny flakes falling sporadically but the sky is getting bright though. Schools are open but busses aren't running.
Fingers crossed for more tomorrow but EC is on the rain train.
