There was a few other bad winters in the early 2000's as well as the 90's. Expand That entire decade from about '99 to '09 was as bad as I can remember. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MotoWeatherman Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 12z NAM and GFS both really upped the ante for late Wednesday into Thursday. Solid 3+" for most above 4k feet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met1985 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 The EURO has a few little snow events. Something to track at least and kind of goes along with the GFS and NAM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Met1985 Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 NAM still hammering on the upslope snow coming in Wednesday night into Thursday. The wave for this weekend looks a bit more robust. We will see but it looks like we will see multiple small events at this point. Better than nothing and it will turn pretty cold for all . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Met1985 Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I think for Wednesday night we end up with a WWA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it'll be you Met, or someone in the northern mountains. There's gonna be a lot of wind too, and the ground is extremely soft right now.

Met1985 Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Also at the end of the run there is another great signal for a nice event this weekend.
