January 2025 Forecasts And Discussions

[Catnip]

Not to get on EC, but if you look at their forecast for the weekend, you would assume a decently warm weekend with some rain.
This is why the public is always caught off guard. If someone checked it today and decided not to check the weather again, as most people do, then they would be surprised.

Anyways, this weekend will have surprises for snow

will be here soon to ramble on about AI.

I think maybe The Weather Network has a more applicable forecast?

Nothing wrong with that, still room for improvement.

Saturday will be very interesting. Nam and RGEM have some heavy snow bands all day.

They had a more realistic forecast yesterday not sure what they’re seeing

I noticed the same thing- hedging at its finest.

1 more to add to the collection.

As mentioned, Island gets buried on this one. Eastern Metro/Valley, not so much.

so why the glaring disparity between the models posted here and EC's forecast?

Latest blend is rather impressive with snowfall amounts. This is through Tuesday am.

Growing up forecasts were produced by actual forecasters that's all I've got to say about that. I'm not saying it's A.I. products but look at how it's gone it the crapper in recent years not very reliable at all anymore.

Wow, they do. I stopped checking their forecasts 10 years ago because they were so inaccurate. Maybe they are better now?

EC was definitely better when I was a kid, as well.
