Absolute garbage... 30cm+ for Tofino?PortKells wrote: ↑Wed Feb 28, 2024 9:35 pm It's kinda weird right now, the euro keeps tripling down on a decent sized snowfall on Friday, but the HRDPS, NAM etc. aren't showing much of anything. I don't count the GFS it has a history of donking out in these situations...however the fact the Euro is with it is very interesting. Seems unlikely but maybe its sniffing something out?

Re: February 2024 Forecasts and Discussions
Ok, OBVIOUSLY you shouldn't take the exact amounts from that map as much as the general message its selling that there will be a snowfall at all, probably one that can produce up to 10cm in spots. Which is in contrast with the other models (other than the GFS)

It's the top performing model, I figured people might be interested in seeing it.

The main theme of snow potential resonates with me Kells.
It's the 7th annual 2 old retired geezer's inaccurate snowfall contest

Re: February 2024 Forecasts and Discussions
Its limited resolution gives it real issues with terrain bleed in our locale. If no high res short term model shows anything in the lowlands, I say throw it out.
Remember, the Euro called for a big dump Tuesday night. NAM 3km said a few slushy cm. Which was right?
It's called clown range for a reason.

Re: February 2024 Forecasts and Discussions
I actually think the Euro will verify in that the coastal regions will be impacted most. The coldest air aloft and heaviest showers will remain near the coast.Rubus_Leucodermis wrote: ↑Thu Feb 29, 2024 7:12 am Its limited resolution gives it real issues with terrain bleed in our locale.

Re: February 2024 Forecasts and Discussions
Look at that instability..whoa
So Nito is saying the high hills of Westside Van will score? I remember once way back..forecast similar to this one. Low formed in the unstable airmass...and stalled near Victoria..dumped about 30cms in Kerrisdale. Must have been around 2000. Amazing HUGE fluffy flakes for hours

And here it is..December 2024 all snow geeks have been waiting for ..with the LR weather "charts" calling for a cold and snowy month. Where's the troffing?

Re: February 2024 Forecasts and Discussions
Sounds like Nito is going for 5 to 10cms in localized areas due to some powerful instability
