Well, other than what is posted here. ;)
I'm burnt out from model riding, especially now that the arctic air is in place. I remember how much I agonized over 2019 and its just not worth it. I am happy people are posting some nice maps to keep the faith. UkMet and Gem look good. The EPS snow maps I saw earlier today looked pretty good too. It looks like This is Seattle's go for something historic for the second time in two years which is...meh. We get so much more snow on average. But they win in situations like this with such a deep airmass that outflow just gives us a donut hole.

Edit. Mixed with graupel
Nice score. When you say graupel do you mean snow pellets? What's your temperature at? And dew point?

Honestly, the models look decent. A few sunny very cold days followed by a snowstorm. Works for me. :thumbup:

It would be nice if we could find a way to squeeze out 5-10cm of snow going into the cold but that seems unlikely at this point.

Way to be on it this time Nito. I haven't looked lately but saw some instability bubbling up again at dusk coming off the island. Could it be another mini Low with #surprises? :think: :think:
