What happened to all the glorious snow maps that were being posted the last couple days? Gone poof? Does that mean its over? No silly snow maps, so no chance of a storm? Fucking dead in here. Looking at you @Weather Will

The answer ofc is no. The h5 pattern largely looks the same, so potential remains. Devil is in the details- meaning, as usual, wave timing, interplay, and spacing. Sure its not a high probability given climo, but its silly to geek out over day 8-10 day snow maps then disappear when they go poof. Have some sticktoitiveness ffs.

Trough early next week looks very progressive.  Still many days away, but no model is spinning up a storm right now except for maybe northern U.S.

In this region, we have a 10 to 1 ratio.

10" of snowmap snow = 1" of real snow

You must be new here - welcome to the forum!

As always, when a super warm day is initialized, models lose snow threats. They don't estimate this stuff right when it is ahead of time.

Someone should start a thread for late Thursday into Friday. Euro and GFS hinting at a period of snow for some of the region.

Interesting.  I’m shocked at the axis of heavier stuff tho.  Absolutely shocked.

Prepare yourself.   Because if it does indeed snow, Cape will reporting fatties with 3" on the ground and we're partly sunny.

We won't even be partly sunny, though! We'll 42 and drizzle while CAPE enjoys his 34 and heavy snow
