Weeklies love December, but they keep 2nd half of November pretty meh.

EPS are a lot more bullish on colder weather for mid-month and beyond.

Yeah weeklies were meh but EPS looked good, so some differences there. Still think last third of the month offers chances. Maybe even after 15th.

Yeah sometimes the weeklies lag the EPS by a cycle....I've noticed that. The EPS just recently went more ridging in the PNA region and that is what the weeklies weren't showing.

You can see how EPS is hitting that EPO/PNA ridge....weeklies don't show this as much

Yeah I'd love to have snow the last week of the month, but everyone knows the climo....there's a reason most of the forum outside the elevated areas of CNE/NNE average between 1-4" in November.

it's a really good sign that there is no sign of the AK pig returning. That's the biggest thing I'm following.

Yea, the disaster scenario a la 2001, 2011 can be eliminated. I was never really concerned about it, but its nice to have confirmation.

Probably last weekend to really enjoy so we’ll take. It’s gonna come. 

Yup, gonna grab some early dinner with the woman at a nice place, and sit outside in the warmth with a couple adult beverages…and savor the afternoon…in early November it’s truly a bonus.  But change is a coming for sure.

It is going to be a beautiful several days. 

There are so many places that have outdoor seating.. even along Queen street. Enjoy man ( looking forward to the changes ), but I will enjoy the nice days ahead beforehand.

Oh for sure, thanks my friend.  I’m usually not overly eager to sit outside, unless it’s perfect(not too hot or too cool), but these late season warm days are gorgeous, because you can sit in the sun and not cook while relaxing at an establishment. 

Thinking perhaps Restaurant Luce’ in Hamden…very nice place with a nice outdoor patio..and great grub and drinks.

During Thanksgiving week in 1996 we visited my SIL and family who then lived near Olympia, and drove into Rainier National Forest.  At Longmire, ~2700' elev, there was mix, mostly SN, and 3-6" OG.  We headed toward Paradise at 5500' but couldn't get past 4000 (at Going to the Sky Bridge, IIRC) because our minivan had neither 4WD nor chains.  We drove back about 1/2 mile and maybe 200' elev, found a wide place to park and got out for a snowball fight - snow there was 3+ deep, made me wonder what was at Paradise.

I made it to Paradise Lodge in June 1990.  Obviously the roads were clear but there was still a ton of snow otg.
