Not as good as before, but still the main theme remains the same.

The 12Z was not as cold as the 00Z but still cold. This is by far not a rug pull. The overall high latitude blocking theme is still in the models. Its the details that make a big difference, and those are still up for grabs. Honestly, could go either way at this point. Toss a coin. :thumbup:

12Z GFS OP wants to give us more mild Spring like temps. :lol: I still believe in the pattern change. Below normal temps with temps dipping down to -3 to -5C and possible snow. GFS struggling mightily with this pattern change.

A few snow chances anyways.

I'm sure Hawk will be here "beaking" off if it fails to materialize, but I'll post them anyways.

Was originally thinking something similar to 2002 or 2008 but some recent runs got my hopes up for something better. That said, given how this winter has progressed, seeing some frost and/or snow is pretty much a victory at this point. :lol:
