And this is why Weather Pro shouldn't be taken so seriously by some of you guys. He predicted 5-10 cm for lower elevations. I knew that never looked like a good call.
I wouldn't be too hard on him. These are tough forecasts to call. Even EC, Chris Doyle and TWN were a bit off...

Yeah, like Stormer said... not much going on.

The waiting continues.

WP is the Man!!

I'm sorry but it absolutely is over on his prediction of 5-10 cm for lower elevations.

He seems like a nice a guy and his enthusiasm is fun. But his forecasts are massively overrated by some. I've always watched his actual success rate, and it's no better than most here.

Oh I don't blame him at all. He's a cool guy. I'm just mentioning it for the people who seem to swear by his accuracy.

That's...not an apology. It's just a call for everyone to get along and an acknowledgment that forecasting for our area is SUPER hard. Which I agree with.
