Really close to something enormous with that odd secondary low popping near the coast - I presume a transfer from the GLL.  If we can get the main low to do that reverse transfer earlier - i.e. if the GLL comes south - or if for some other reason it tracks nearer the coast (trough goes more negative) - we're in business.

Lord I miss wx graphics already. From what I can tell, the lead (miller a) shortwave looks weaker and farther east, but the trailing northern stream vorts are in a better position for us. Based on the 168hr map, it looks like we *should*be getting CCBed well.

I always worry when it takes that much digging of the northern stream.  knock down the upstream ridge a bit and poof, the low runs farther east.  Need it to be in the 72 hour time range.

File not found. It’s a pay site now. They still have meteograms for free which is cool I guess. Weather.us has free maps but much less visually friendly.

crazy, I'm on it now

I guess I had the link open and they changed it afterward

I can never close the link now!

No doubt Wes. This is the first run of any kind that suggests the northern stream closing off south of us. I guess this is still similar in some ways to Jan 2000. Tenuous and fragile are a couple adjectives that come to mind. Unlike more traditional ways to snow...this one has a heck of a lot of stuff to go right and anything that goes wrong ruins all the fun. Complicated + long lead = ugh

Wes with this setup I wouldn’t feel comfortable until we’re like 36-48hrs out. High risk high reward setup.
