EPS looks pretty cooked as well though better than GEFS January May go down as a Epic torch , and it’s almost comfortable outside with a light jacket .

I thought only weenies take day 10 euro verbatim? And this is how you know it’s nothing but an agenda! Can’t even get the days right that a model goes out, and can’t count the number of storms…even if they are in fantasy land. But when folks post something out 8-10 days that looks decent, they get made fun of by this troll. What a Complete clown that guy is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand your angst…but how bout just thinking a lil positive at this point. You can’t control the weather/or the conditions. She knows this. You both will enjoy the weekend trip no matter what. So just go with it, and have a great time regardless of the conditions. And maybe Mother Nature will smile upon your trip after all.

Typhoon Tip Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 The pattern changing and the potential to succeed is all very real, guys. I realize there’s sarcasm and low patience - related blow back but … whether the new paradigm actually rolls eyes back in a d-drip winter event in the models or not, bears no relevancy to whether that happens. Having said that … regime changes can be led and/or exit with events. It seems there is prelim attempt to do so … but it could also be rain/west tracked ordeal just the same 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took it for granted at the time, but looking back, it was impressive how well they kept coverage on the mountain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know there’s no guarantees, there never is. But if this keeps showing up, the legitimacy becomes greater too. It could certainly fail, but your wording is not logical when you say the word promises. There are no promises period. All one can do is hope for a decent pattern, and get some decent chances.

I took it for granted at the time, but looking back, it was impressive how well they kept coverage on the mountain. They have been blasting since last night. They should still be in good shape after Friday. Not ideal, but plenty of trails open and coverage. They basically doubled their snowmaking ability around 10 years ao (5?). It is super impressive now. When they choose to do it... at times they are cheap about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
