All righty now, everyone just needs to CALM DOWN a bit about this thing being nothing but a big bust-a-roni. Based on the most recent ECMWF ensembles for KBLI:

• 45 out of 50 members (90%) had an inch (2.5 cm) or more of snow in the coming week.
• 80% had 2" (5 cm) or more.
• 60% had 4" (10 cm) or more.
• 34% had 8" (20 cm) or more.

The mean snowfall was 6.3" and the median was 5.1". And I bet those figures are comparable across most of the Lower Mainland.

Bottom like is that odds strongly disfavor this being a complete zero.
Nito must have hacked into ensemble member #42. :lol:

Less compact. Looks like an open wave rather than a low...It would be typical PNW fashion to see it underdevelop even further leading to less outflow down there and more warming. :lol:

These runs being more aggressive with the cold air are killing our snow chances. Anything more than a cm or 2 would seem like a big score at this point.

Clinton is down to -26 now. They decouple very well on a clear night up there. They will probably blow by ECs forecast low by 5-7 degrees
