Fascinating. I must have missed the memo on being boiled alive.

Oh, that... don't worry. That is a prediction on how hot next summer's heat dome will be. Lots of time to prepare!

Well I'm developing the :catnip: FS so I cracked the code for the NFS model (Thanks Nito) and tried to tweak it a bit.

Back to the drawing board I guess.

NFS with the warm bias, C(at)FS with the cold bias. The mean should be pretty darn accurate then. :shock:

Interesting.

:think: :think:

:catnip: FS also showing the heat dome for next June, HOWEVER, it shows that the biggest impacted area will be the Similkameeeeenz. It will wipe it off the map. It's not all bad news though. Just think, we wouldn't have to hear about it on here come next winter.

:dunno:

YES...in the Similkameens, it can be quite arid..desert like in the summer. I think Nito should visit during a summer dustfestival, and go looking for dried out tumbleweeds. We actually do have tumbleweeds :thumbup: too. Not sure how good they taste tbh. Usually late summer, they start rolling around after they dry up some. The Similkameens people know how to survive weather extremes, so we wont be leaving anytime soon. I mean, who is going to give you all valuable weather info from that area of BC then? :think: :think:
Cmon now..

Cliff Mass’s baby, the WRF-GFS, shows the Lower Mainland scoring a dusting tonight.

(Of course, it’s the WRF-GFS….)
It's called clown range for a reason.

Ah, that explains why it falls at night. I thought it was just shy. :lol: :lol:

Starting to cloud over here, high grey 'snow' clouds coming in. My accuview station with my 'personal' weather forecast' says snow! It's all looking good. EC is even up to 60% chance of flurries for tonight.
