Big setback on the models. Warmer than normal the next 2 weeks. Looking like all models continue the split flow theme into 2020. Just see no reprieve from it. You may need a monster +ENSO combined with an intense SSW event to shake this pattern off.

Good to see the Mountains pick up snow to at least get some base.

Unfortunately, split flow is alive and well across the 3 models.

36km low res maps which distorts precip totals. Unfortunately 850mb temps too warm for snow below 1700m. Lots of the precip falls as rain below that. Black Tusk and the top of Whistler Blackcomb look to do well though.

Originally from outside of Ottawa and hope every year we get at least a little cold and snow for Christmas, but again, looks like it will be a letdown! Hopefully we'll get a New Years Eve surprise

NWS at 2:27pm

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...This should be a wet
period across Western Washington. It will likely be breezy at
times and perhaps windy--more likely with the front late in the
week. There are significant differences in the way the models
handle the two or three frontal systems that affect the region and
it is a bit too early to say anything specific, but overall the
weather is likely to be seasonably wet with average temps and snow
levels.
January 2025 incoming..looks like more Pineapples..Happy New Year! :think:
