I've noticed a lot of the 06Z and 18Z model runs have been the least snowy compared to the 00Z and 12Z runs. Not sure why. That said, right now even the least snowy runs are still very snowy so that's a good sign for us. But I'm still curious as to why there seems to be such a significant difference with the 06Z/18Z compared to the 00Z/12Z runs. It doesn't seem to be run to run related since the 00Z/12Z remain identical. :think: :think:

Higher resolution models certainly hinting at less snow than the coarser resolution models, with more in the 5-15 cm range going from western sections to the FV

NWS updated WSW for Western Whatcom to say 2-8". I think we're solid to call for 4-10" across the LM with 4-6 for the immediate coastline and then 6-10 everywhere else.
