I'll have to try that, I've never roasted marshmallows in mine but I've cooked in it, pushed the coals to one side and put a small tray in the other. Salmon and pork chops are fantastic with the smoke flavour. Just heading out to stock up on cat food and marshmallows now. :lol: :lol: EC is calling for light snow but...

Nice stove Monty. I have a Quadra Fire but looked at the Regency's also.

Just took a look around Oregon on webcams and they haven't got much snow out of the last day it's been falling. Many places looked wet as in possible rain. I wonder if they are bummed out about that on the AF.

As for us, I was just thinking about how previous years snow failed because the lows ended up trending too far north, yet was not forecast that way. What if this happens again? Except this time we would be in the perfect spot. I mean it's possible.. If it busts that way for us many times in the past, this may turn out to be a score! :shrug:

Sometime tomorrow morning (anywhere from the wee hours to after daybreak). It’s coming in from the south, so the further south you are, the earlier you will see it.
It's called clown range for a reason.

This was the 500mb pattern on March 5th 1951. I highly doubt we see a repeat unfortunately.

Concerning, since that’s generally a very accurate short-range model.

Seems out of line with almost everything. Its times like this I feel bad for professional forecasters in this region. Try explaining to the public that we are getting between 0 and 25cm only a day out.

Eh, this rug was already 6 hours old. We needed a new one anyways.
