And the GEM joins back into the snow party.
So that’s the Euro, GFS, GEM, UKMET, ICON for #teamsnow.

True that. The real question is what is he going to score with this event, it looks dry on the Island.

Likely not much. Maybe a better chance if there is some cold showers following the main precip

^Looking good for here but seeing as how the last couple "events" panned out, I am just expecting rain or a non-accumulating rain/snow mix at best. Now I won't be disappointed. :thumbup: :wave:
It always snows in December in the Kootenays :clap:

With these cold March airmasses we quite often see showers and snow showers bubble up during the day, so while it does fall as snow, it often doesn’t accumulate the way the models think. I’d much prefer seeing a larger overrunning event with consistent precip rates to hold temps down.

The euro shows a ton of snow down towards Portland in this run.
