RGEM wasn't showing snow yet so they didn't have it, but they might add it in now because the 18z RGEM is jumping on board.

I hope I see something. I don’t think it’s too far-fetched to think I might. But realistically, it might end up being a Burnaby Mountain special. Agree that odds are it will be no more than slushy rain at the lowest elevations.
It's called clown range for a reason.

All of the deterministic models and ensemble members are above freezing for Saturday, so at best you might see a brief transition to wet snow. But I would not expect anything to stick, especially at lower elevations.

Sorry folks

Depends on the precip rates. Would expect the roads to stay wet or at worst be slushy in spots.

Sad that this hit or miss sloppy snow could be the most exciting winter weather we have to track for a while.

It's getting within the HRRR window, and starting to show up there, too.
