Pretty awful GFS run. Let me start

Probably too cold to snow
Coldest air looks to be in Alberta to start
Outflow is going to dry out the valley
Kind of a back door look to things
PG high is there but not strong enough
Block configuration looks prone to undercutting with pineapple intrusions
Even if it did verify it wouldn’t. And things would be warmer than shown.
