Interstate

I am call it now... 15+ for my backyard

We need the SW to dig a little more to our southwest... then it would really be game on

If we could get the low closer to the coast take over a little sooner... that would be the wow factor

I have been on the this is going to happen train since Tuesday and have not wavered since.

Valleys are cold tonight. 34 in the valley and. On top the hill 41.

Nope... that snowed and snowed all day. There was a state of emergency declared and all traffic was mandated off the road by 6PM

Is that were 83 turned into a skating ring and people started walking home?

Good thing we are on USA soil... so we take the USA Models and disregard any other one. There is a reason we secede from England.

It is not a fluke... I said it was going to happen so it will.

The 12K looks the the GFS yesterday morning

Still room for improvement on the H5... if it can go negative about 6 hours sooner

H5@48 is almost neutral

but even at 45 it is not negativity tilted...nor was it on the 12Z

We were looking at different hours... that 3 hours made a difference

I was looking at H5@39... so you are ahead of me... maybe something switches in 3 hours... and it does

Yeah that looks more positivity tilted than the 12Z

46.4/46.1... This is why I have a WSW and you dont.

All I am concerned with is where the SW in located and where it goes negative (if it does)

Thank you Mods for everything you do and everything you have to put up with.

They do... It is the Kuchera ratio

It is not the surface I am worried about.

it is way positive at 48 compared to 54@6Z

it is all about it going negative tilt now

I don't think I am liking the change... I could be wrong
