Mild 35 here this AM but the GFS is not at all mild in the MR and getting a bit colder LR than what it was showing before though not a lot of pattern support on the ensembles for the LR...seems some real winter cold is on our doorsteps. As long as it keeps the up top cold source available, we have a shot at something special here as to snow. Starting Jan 14th, MDT does not go above freezing for 10 days. Cannot count on 2M temps on a LR model to be right but can probably count on it being cold for a decent period...something we have not had in quite a while around here.
