Maybe I'm biased but I have a feeling we are going to break the January curse soon and it's going to come when least expected. :silent: :wave:

Moved up to Squamish for personal reasons, not for the snow. But might do marginally ok throughout the winter if reputation holds. I hear there's been a few skiffs of snow for the last month and a half here and there, but just a couple centimeters of wet sloppiness currently as it's been snowing lightly all day, but slightly above freezing at sea level. Hi everyone anyways, and if it gets exciting, I'll try not to brag since I know i've cheated a bit coming here. :wave:
That's insane Walt, 👍 good for you. Where did you live before? are you going to set up a weather station to keep us updated?

Great team effort by Slyts and the boy's. John was spotted at the Legion playing darts. :shifty: but we couldn't get another CM past team.skipper Gumperoni probably due to the game was called due to Grumps bed time. :wtf:

In fact, we will probably not see any subzero temps on the local mountains over the next 2 weeks.

Cypress has a 50cm base at the mid point which will melt away before Christmas.

We are in for a wet/stormy Xmas if that offshore beast of a "TROFF" sets up as modeled.

It will pump a lot of :dancepine: :dancepine: our way and flood the rest of the country with :blowtor: air.

All 3 model suites seem to agree on that giant "troff" in the pacific.

In fact the extended GEFS has that dang "troff" in play right into the first part of Jan.

Talk about a #patternlock that we don't really want.
