No roasting here. We are literally 7 days out in an anomalous pattern change and blocking. People talk about the gfs being erratic.... Um the Euro went from showing snow in the south to a damn cutter so tell me which model is erratic.... I don't really believe both currently.
In all seriousness it's one run. There will be several more changes to this storm and the pattern. Could the euro be right? Yes. But I don't think this is the final solution a week out.....
The gfs takes the Christmas system and makes it into a long duration event. Literally dumps about 2 feet of snow on the mountains. Just eye candy but a surreal solution for the Christmas day storm.
Another good hit by the gfs for us for the 23rd storm. It's doesn't phase and blow up but we still see anywhere from 4 to 12 itches of snowfall. The border counties really clean up. But listen this storm is a weak out. Keep expectations real at this point. All this is, is a signal.
Again the biggest takeaways are it's getting cold, going to get colder then get bone chilling cold and we have several opportunities for winter weather signals on multiple gfs runs.
