Appreciate your thoughts, thanks!

Way out there but the 18z GEFS shows potential.

I like Tyler Hamilton's approach of a boom or bust outlook but it's nearly impossible to make a call with the many elements at play (track of low, intensity of precip, depth of cold air, reinforcing shot of cold air, etc). See what happened in PDX.

Would hate to be a forecaster.

I actually didn't catch what happened in PDX. Did it completely fall apart?

I love that westernmost long ditch there. on Saturday no one had crossed the path to skate back there yet. we were the first but we didn't go too far back there because of all the cracking. It was unnerving but all ice cracks with the first weight on it.
