What we want is a strong low to cut extremely far west..then hopefully Midwest/central conus trough carves out, allowing for a stalled firehose of higher pwats and parade of waves running along it to train us.
Glad to see the F word is being thrown around.
It is not a matter of if, but when, severity and duration. If it cannot be 75 and bright sun, hopefully we can muster a sig cutoff event to maximize upslope rains for several days over the mtns.
