Coldest run yet I believe?

This makes it 6 or 7 runs now?

That looks legit...a classic blast, not the backdoor s*** we've seen recently. Too bad it's 9-10 days away. :lol:

Right around the same timing it's shown run after run though. I'm speechless. I'd like to know why the GFS is so consistent while most other models are not on board. Absolutely insane.

-8c and snowing nicely up Washington. Too bad there's a +11 degree difference between the alpine chair and sea level...

:shock: Nice to look at almost looks too perfect, but...who knows.
The 7th annual snowfall contest is canceled due to no snow this winter.

This would be the meanest trick the GFS has ever pulled if it turns out to be complete fluff. Can't it just for once be right? GEM still hasn't caved, c'mon Euro?

Based on history, odds are the GFS is out to lunch.

However, it did nail the current pattern by being a warm outlier while other models were cold, so perhaps our odds are raised by a percent or two. :lol:
