Problem has been carrying any momentum forward run to run. 3-4 runs in a row and we could be in business.

Still looking extremely wet for tomorrow. The Atmospheric River takes the unusual path right through Whatcom and the Fraser Valley. :shock: :wave:

Maps valid for Wednesday at 12:00AM to Thursday at 12:00AM:

If that darn ridge could just stop getting undercut... I think a lot on here would have a pretty happy holiday season... weather wise.

Nice to see the latest GFS hint at that.

GEM snow maps goes further out than the temp maps. If the notoriously warm biased GEM is saying something then I am upgrading myself from 'aware' to 'curious' if not even 'intrigued'.
