Wait...the HRDPS is usually the one that handles our local geography the best. Is this where I start to believe?!?!

Easterly wind and marginal 925mb temps. I think we see flakes in the air on Saturday afternoon. Accumulations unlikely below 200m or so.

It usually does. It has 925mb temps sitting around -2c over the area with surface temps of +2c to +3c. So, I think accumulations are unlikely, but it’ll be nice to see some big fat flakes of wet snow falling.

00z Soundings.

Euro brings the freezing level down to 420m on Saturday afternoon. HRDPS has it at 145m a couple of hours later. As we know, it can snow well below the freezing level. Things to ponder.

What's with the passive aggressive reply? I was giving my opinion for next winter no need to be rude.

John, the last few days on this forum have been great. Can we keep it that way? You publicly admitted to trying to stir the pot, so can you stop? You are trying to bait someone into a fight, and that should be called out, yet nobody does.

The passive-aggressive replies do no one good.
