Too bad that wasn’t coming north last night. It’s a little warmer tonight. 925mb only near freezing and the atmosphere is pretty saturated. Probably equals rain

Always on Team Snow bud. I'm a lifer. Just letting off some steam earlier. As annoying as this past week has been, its just another reminder to not get too hyped up about winter weather, especially marginal events. Rug pulls are always lurking.

Its funny, my wife was annoyed with me because I apparently "guaranteed" her some winter weather when all the models locked into the pattern. I don't remember doing that but I'm not surprised I got way too wrapped up in that lmao.

If we're being objective then this upcoming pattern is very intriguing. If its legit then great, if its not then lets see some blossoms.

It’s only 0.9C here. So much colder than last night at this time. But I’m thinking rain here too

I must have lucked out today. Well by this winters standards. Snowed all morning and off and on for part of the afternoon. Got about 5 cm on top of what slop was leftover. Looks nice. Driving down the mountain tonight though there was nothing by Gaglardi stoplights halfway down.
Burnaby Mountain @ 365 m..

Stats? Fresh out of those. But I win anyway. I got all the inches.

So I take it the GEM is a beauty and the GFS is a disaster. And tomorrow it'll be the other way around.

Where's King Euro's tiebreaking vote?

Tie breaker goes to the Shitts model.
