The 00Z GFS has a classic arctic front in the clown range. Drops Abbotsford to a low of -17C. Yeah right... :clap: :lol: :14clown:

Be right back... just heading to the American forums to get confirmation as to whether or not this could actually verify. :shh: :wave:

Yeah the operational run is way colder than all the ensemble members. Definitely a one off.

It has been a day of massive improvement in runs today. That may be all it ends up being, but at this point, it’s all we have. Enjoy the ride.

I used to root for him, but I can't root for someone so diluted. It's not even just that it's the fact that he gets mad at other people for not agreeing with him even tho the models show absolutely nothing.. He's like, " You guys just don't see it. No, Jim, it's because you're wishcasting. He does it to himself every single year it's just the same old song and dance that's annoying.

Looking pretty sparse in the :flakey: department.

Hawk, what's going on up there?

Nice aerial :shock:

Not much going on in the Similks this winter. Ugh. Bare ground pretty much everywhere in the valleys due to sporadic light snowfalls of 1-2" every week or so..that wont do anything. Even the mountains are struggling. The lakes are still mostly open :roll:
And here it is..December 2024 all snow geeks have been waiting for :silent: ..with the LR weather "charts" calling for a cold and snowy month. Where's the troffing? :silent: :silent:
