Tom Posted December 8, 2015 Report Share Posted December 8, 2015 I say, build up that snow pack in the northern Plains first because it will benefit all of us in the long run. Let nature lay down it's reflective snow pack and build the cold air dome. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bud2380 Posted December 8, 2015 Report Share Posted December 8, 2015 GFS just sits and spins in Minnesota at hour 210 and really hammers areas around Duluth. Looks to be dragging in some actual cold air too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted December 8, 2015 Report Share Posted December 8, 2015 Because I don't agree with what the euro ensembles are showing, I deserve to get banned? No - you're entitled to your opinion and everything. Don't make a deal out of it though. Put a reason down why you disagree with it, instead of like just putting lol etc. Otherwise it comes across annoying-like.The models show what they show. It's computers spitting out data. In end the weather will do what it wants to do. Regardless of who says what. 4 Quote Mercer Island, 350 ft 2021-2022: 11.6", 02/21 2020-2021: 15.6" 2019-2020: ~10" 2018-2019 winter snowfall total: 29.5" 2017-2018: 9.0", 2016-2017: 14.0" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted December 8, 2015 Report Share Posted December 8, 2015 Euro showing a 1028mb HP just SW of Hudson Bay that should feed this system enough cold air to produce a significant band of snow. This is why I have always said, let's wait and see how the models handle the chaos going on in the atmosphere. If the models trend towards more snow, rather than concrete mixers, lesson learned.
