12Z GFS is a snow lovers dream. Snowstorm on Saturday and Monday with no quick warmup.

12Z GEM shows a snowstorm Saturday and more snow Sunday night but mostly rain Monday. Much quicker warmup.

12Z ICON shows a snowstorm for Friday night through Saturday.

What will the 12Z Euro show? :hmm: :dunno:

In any case, looks like at least one region wide snowstorm with this arctic blast. :thumbup:

Have to guess the Euro will show a much milder setup.

That band of flurries looks like it's crept to near the tip of UBC now. Maybe there will be some light flurries late morning?
