The LR models are a clever guess, generated by a computer, based on data that is no longer valid in a volatile climate. Anything more than 7- 10 days, you may as well save the chicken bones, give them a toss and consult a book on divination.

The bad news is model and ensemble runs keep showing a sustained torch by mid-late month.

Excellent model runs for a White Christmas. The rug pull for the pineapples looking good. The models tend to flip

Bellingham gets wild temperature spikes in the winter due to downsloping off the Chuckanut Mountains when the winds are right.
